if you: set the dontuseqt to TRUE then you will only be able to ONLY play MPG (1), SOME AVI and MOV files with "ancient" codecs in LC via: play vc "path/to/videofile.mp" > I hope that my LiveCode status of 5.5 (can't afford LiveCode updates) > is not going to restrict me in any way.

QT and Windows were never good companions, so you are out of luck because LC 5.5 will always use QT for multimedia playback on Windows. > Thanks for any help > > -Francis Best Klaus -- Klaus Major http://www.major-k.de kl...@major-k.de _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
