AVI playback

[eynstyne]

I'm working on a media / photo viewer. Right now it has all the buttons, credits roll by, but I haven't figured out how to fastforward, rewind an AVI movie using the GuictrlcreateAvi() control. I posted this before and didn't get any answers, I hope I'll get some this post. Also, how can I get MPEG and other formats to play with the control???

Here is a screenshot of the player...

Sorry for posting this before in the wrong topic...

not sure if this would help any but i think that if you put a timer in you might be able to jump to that point in time... havent tryed it but i have this for the timer

$FileName = '"C:\you music filepath"'

mciSendString("Open " & $FileName & " alias MediaFile")

mciSendString("Set MediaFile time format milliseconds")

$answer = mciSendString("Status MediaFile length")

mciSendString("Close MediaFile")

$Mins = int($Answer/60000)

$Seconds = int($Answer/1000)

$Secs = int($Seconds-($Mins*60))

MsgBox(4096,"file length","length in seconds: " &$Mins &":" &$Secs)


Func mciSendString($string)
   Local $ret
   $ret = DllCall("winmm.dll","int","mciSendString","str",$string,"str","","int",65534,"hwnd",0)
   If Not @error Then Return $ret[2]
EndFunc

I guess i need to find the length of the movie, and using a guigetcursorinfo() move a slider to that point in time. That's good enough for me. TYVM for the only reply so far and my ramblings ()
