Video Player for VB

[brianwustl]

Hello,

Does anybody know a way I can get a control for VB that will allow me to open up a video file and play it, and easily jump to frames?

There is a shareware control bundled with VB 6.0, but it is unregistered (and expensive).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Brian

Awesome- thanks for the response!

One question before I attempt to implement--- do the avi files have to be uncompressed?

Also, do you know of any way that I could open and display .mov files in VB?

Thanks,
Brian

I don't think so... it works with DivX videos on mine...

>>Also, do you know of any way that I could open and display .mov files in VB?
I think QuickTime has an SDK...

I got this error:

Video not available, cannot find 'vids:mjpg' decompressor.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Sounds like you need a codec...
