If you coding for the Mac, install the free Flip4Mac Player: http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv_compare.htm
It will install WMV codecs for QuickTime, i.e. any application that is based on QuickTime (e.g. RealBasic's Movie Player) will be able to play WMV files. I've used it successfully in one of my projects. Cheers, Roger PS: if you're on Windows, this is not going to work. And I'm not sure if there are any such codecs available for Windows QuickTime. > From: ISS WebMaster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: Getting Started <[email protected]> > Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2006 21:16:52 -0400 > To: Getting Started <[email protected]> > Subject: Playing Windows Media Player Movies in REALbasic > > Hi, > > I am writing a Movie Player so far I got it to Play QuickTime Movies > but I can't seem to get it to play > Windows Media Player movies > > Here's my code; what am I doing wrong? > > DIM MovieTypes as new filetype > > MoviePlayer1.PlayerType=2 > MovieTypes.Name= "Movie Files" > MovieTypes.Extensions=".asf;.wm;.wma;.wmp;.wmv" > Dim f as FolderItem = GetOpenFolderItem(MovieTypes) > If f <> Nil then > MoviePlayer1.movie=f.OpenAsMovie > End if > > > Brian > > > _______________________________________________ > Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: > <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> > > Search the archives of this list here: > <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html> _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
