Fine. I'm sure, I didn't read this (I said, I am new to this list ;-))

Of course not. I only tried to change some existing code, which
runs together with avifile-0.53, so that it runs also with avifile-0.6
I just wondered, why the interface for external programs is so
different in these two versions.

Ok, I will do that (and then I will decide, whether I try to build
some quick hack, so that I can still use xmms to view my videos,
or I have to wait for a running version from the original author
(who is busy with other projects)) ;-)

As I see it, there are two classes, IAviPlayer and IAviPlayer2, where
(judging by the comments in aviplay.h) IAviPlayer2 does the drawing by
itself, and for IAviPlayer you have to provide a drawCallback-function.
But this draw callback does not exist any more, so I wondered, how to use
this class ....


But for now: Thank you for the hints,
        Robert
