Hi David,
I tried this and it worked for adding a movie when building the standalone
app.
I added in the standalone application settings -> Copy files the movie file
I wanted to include.
In the button scipt I put:
-----------------------
on mouseUp
put "LanoKurz-iPhone-cell.3gp" into tMovie
put specialfolderpath("engine") & "/" into tMypath
put tMovie after tMyPath
play video tMyPath
end mouseUp
------------------------
watch out: the iPhone is case sensitive.
This would get you a movie file into your app that you can play without
streaming it over the network.
If you want to download a movie file you could probably store it in "cache".
I did not do that yet. specialfolderpath ("cache")
Kind regards
Bernd
