[Thornhunt 0]

i know its simple but i cant see what is wrong :/

yehh i know the variables are long ect ect.. its poor programming but its just a skeleton to be worked on so dont get all picky please.

#region#####cinimatics startup#####

$GUIcinimaticstart = GUICreate("movie", 1024, 768, 0, 0,$WS_POPUP)

GUISetBkColor(0x000000)

$cinimaticstartavi = _GUICtrlAVI_Create($GUIcinimaticstart, @ScriptDir & "\data\mvs\Duty.avi", -1,0,0,1024,768)

GUISetState()

SLEEP(1000)

_GUICtrlAVI_Play ($cinimaticstartavi)

sleep(1000)

#endregion

this is showing naff all . i have tried the

$ani1 = GUICtrlCreateAvi(@Sys...

way but that returns a error about the file being corrupt ect. can anyone please help me here or point to me were i am going wrong ?

Here's what worked for me. I chanegd some things around but you should be able to grok the solution. I think it's the way you handle showing the GUI. Sorry for my delayed response.

#include <GuiAVI.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <AVIConstants.au3>

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "term")

#region#####cinimatics startup#####
$GUICinematicStart = GUICreate("Movie", 400, 400, -1, -1, $WS_POPUP)

GUISetBkColor(0x000000)

$CinematicStartAvi = _GUICtrlAVI_Create($GUICinematicStart, @DesktopDir & "\FlickAnimation.avi", -1, 0, 0, 400, 400, $ACS_AUTOPLAY + $ACS_CENTER)

GUISetState()

_GUICtrlAVI_Play($CinematicStartAvi)

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
#EndRegion#####cinimatics startup#####

Func term()
    _GUICtrlAVI_Destroy($GUICinematicStart)
    Exit
EndFunc
