Video clips can be played in a VRML scenes with Java3d using the VRML Loaders from Sun,
Why don't you show us this functionality? I remember several hacks in the original loader that got Audio sorta working but never reliably. Video? Yea right, I don't have the code in front of me but I don't ever remember video working in the old loader. If you have fixed it or added new functionality why don't you release this code to the public?

You are so misguided Paul. The old loaders handled Audio and Video VERY badly. There is no way they are spec compliant. Why don;t you bother to test and post your compliance results? At least we are being truthful about what we support. We have some active work ongoing that will add audio and video rendering to Xj3D. We are working with the Sun team to fix some bugs in how Java3D handles Audio, we are hopeful that Java3D 1.3.1 will fix these issues. -- Alan Hudson President: Yumetech, Inc. http://www.yumetech.com/ Web3D Open Source Chair http://www.web3d.org/TaskGroups/source/ =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
