Dear Bobby, Thanks for your advise, the reason to use AVI files is only that my end user have movie files in AVI format the disk spece is nothing the matter to worry about. as i said earlier that i have to play the videos one by one (based on its priorities, to be settled by another database / datagrid based application) and minimization of full screen display should not be occur. as you said that you have used shellexecute to execute the videos one by one, this is not the single aim of our project our aim is toprovide full control on movie i.e. play / pause / stop / forward / rewind full screen / normal screen and etc.
i am awaiting to hear your response. best regards, Amir --- In [email protected], "Bobby Clarke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, Amir > > > > You solution is the only one I know of.
