I am building a flash mx projector and would love it if someone could help me with a way to open a quicktime mov.
I have been to flashjester.com but the price of there tool is not in my budget as this is an assignment for college.
Can anyone help me with how to create a batch file to achieve this outcome.
 
Use Notepad. Type the following in a new text file...

@ echo off
start Sample.mov
exit

Save with a .bat extension if you can, "movie.bat". Or save as a .txt, and then change the .txt to .bat.
Put this file in a "fscommand" direct subfolder to the folder that contains your projector file, and along with your movie. Here I've used Sample.mov from QT.

Then on your Flash button...
Code:
on(release){
    fscommand("exec", "movie.bat");
}

Should work fine.
