opening .avi movies from shockwave file

[instructorTek]

Hi I created a director movie that opens .avi movies on the click of a button. It works fine as a projector, using the open vid.avi with camplay.exe, command. But when I publish it as a shockwave and click the appropriate button, I get an error "Unsupported lingo command #open". What command could I use to open the .avi files from shockwave. Any help will be most appreciated.

If you want to open it in a separate window like "open" command, use Javascript window.open() to open a HTML document with your video embedded. Or just navigate to the new page. Have a look at "externalEvent" and "gotoNetPage".
