timmy2 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 In my simple test script I'm using ShellExecute to open an avi file in BSPlayer (the file's default player). ShellExecute("testvideo.avi","-hide") When I run the script the video "testvideo.avi" does indeed open in BSPlayer, but the BSPlayer GUI is visible. "-hide" is a command line option that is supposed to hide the BSPlayer GUI, leaving just the video visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Why not use Run, or ShellExecute the BSP player program with the filename and the hide command as the parameters? What is the default action that happens when you double click an avi file? If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

timmy2 Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thank you for replying, BrewManNH. Your suggestion prompted me to try Run one more time and I got it to work. $pathV = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Webteh\BSplayerPro\bsplayer.exe" & " video.avi -hide" Run($pathV) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
