I don't know if it's the ideal solution but here goes.... Just to test I put a mediaplayer on the form and played a video with wait := true;
I also had a timer on the form that fired every 1000ms and in the onTimer event put application.processmessages I also had a counter incrementing and assigned this to the forms caption to see if it was updating ok, which it did. Might be something worth trying. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chris Veale Sent: Friday, 12 March 2004 11:43 a.m. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [DUG]: updating a form while another process is running. Hi. Im playing around with the tmediaplayer and am wanting to play a video in a second window, but I want to update the initial form with a time remaining when I play the video though ir locks the form until the video stops (I believe cause I use the wait procedure of the tmediaplayer) but I need the wait as people can choose to play two videos and I want them to be able to, instead of skipping to the last one only. I looked at threads for this but this also locks the form. any thoughts how I can do this?
