ACS_AUTOPLAY not working for me

[t0ddie]

i think i had posted this a long time ago but,

i cant get my picture to move in my gui when i use this.

GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 12,  $ACS_AUTOPLAY)

i am converting animated .gif to .avi and the .avi file is pretty big...

but i have tried a few of them, and none will move.

they just sit still.

i think i remember someone saying that not all .avi files will work.

but i have already tried a bunch.

what can i do??

is it the size of the file thats the problem?

Obviously you didn't look at the help file before posting, otherwise, you would see that you're doing stupid things with the parameters you are passing. Suggestion: Read, and more importantly, spend time comprehending the help file.

cool

GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 0, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)
GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 100, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)
GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 200, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)

im doing that, and i get all 3 pics to spin at the same time

i tried to put sleep in between them, to make them spin at different times, so they werent in sync

GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 0, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)
sleep(333)
GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 100, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)
sleep(333)
GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 200, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)

it semi-worked....the first 2 were still were in sync..

would there be a good method for doing something like this?

anyone?

its pretty clear. do you understand what im talking about?

EDIT: im seeming to get some results by adding the create .avi commands to the beginning of the script..

i think i can play with it and get my desired results.

cool!

this works great! i just thought of it.

AdlibEnable ("shmegma")



func shmegma()
    GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 0, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)
    sleep(1000)
GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 100, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)
sleep(2000)
GuiCtrlCreateAvi("spin.avi",0, 200, 370, 32, 32, $ACS_AUTOPLAY)
AdlibDisable ()
EndFunc

ewwwwww...

if the gui loses focus, the spinning stops.

then you give it focus again... they sit for a few seconds... then they all spin simultaniously.

lol..

oh well..
