I am current dealing with LiveCode media headaches such as:
1) Inconsistency with media file formats supported between OSX AVF and
Microsoft DirectShow
2) Very limited set of formats for DirectShow without additional 3rd
party codec packs installed (we use LAV Filters)
3) Inconsistencies with the playRate property between platforms and
between codecs on Windows.
4) Controller bar irregularities in rendering and function
I would really like a solution that just works. To the extent we could,
Researchware would help with any effort that might lead to a better
solution for media playback in LiveCode.
For our apps we need the following media properties to work:
currentTime, startTime, endTime, playSelection, playRate (with playRates
from -n.n to 0 to +n.n) for both audio and video media.

Thanks Roland thats good to know, ... I have tentatively scheduled further
investigation of this for July. If I decide to start I might ask the
community for help and try for a team effort. While I look forward to
opening up a whole new world of possibilities with FFI, I'm not looking
forward to the learning curve...C++ gives me the headaches. :)

I would be very happy if VLC could be used in LC and if we had high level
access to those functions on ALL platforms. It would be a huge
contribution. I would pay for it.
Imagine the number of add-ons that could easily be made using LC.
