How to deploy third component/activex on client machine?

Hi experts

i use clickonce to deploy application and it works very well
but my new application has VLC activeX and directX DLL, when i deploy on client machine
exception "System.invalidOperationException" occurs and i don't know what to do...

i have set copy local to TRUE on those DLL and also Isolated = True

how can i deploy on client machine without installing whole program like VLC or directX

I would expect that direct x will need to be set up on the client machine. To determin if it is the activeX or the Directx dll create a small text app with only one of those components and try to instal that, if it works then it is probably the other component.

i've just installed directx and i still have this exception

try an app without the VLC activeX and see if it is working

it works without VLC player (activex)

so the solution is to install on each client machine that use the application?

Do you know if the VLC active x is being copied to the client machine?

i guess it is copied if i set "copy local" to TRUE and ISOLATED = TRUE
but how can i be sure?
(remember, i use clickonce for deploying application)
