This object, like a lot of others, is currently not compatible with the HWA. You should wait for the author convert this extension for HWA. :)
I hope it gets updated fast, because this is the extension I'm using to check if someone has the right version of a video codec installed. (think about that one for a second...)
WOW, you really are 'lazycoder'.
Ummm... huh? How's that lazy? I thought it was rather ingenious.
I just loaded the movie in the animation object, and use the pixel object to see if the color that is there matches the color that is in the movie. If it does, then they have a recent enough version. If not, then they don't, and all you can see is the background, in which case they will be given a link to the website, and will not be allowed to proceed.
The problem with just trying to play the movie, is that it DOES play, it just won't show the video.
It's lazy for so many reasons.
...The reason you hear the sound; but no video is displayed, is probably because your using a chunk based file, such as .AVI,
chunk files store there audio and video information separately.
.Avi(generally) = mpeg1 + mp3.
most people can run mp3 but mayn't be able to run mpeg1.
mayn't? That's something new. :)
Bless, I think he's making up words :D But yes lazycoder, that is pretty cleaver :D
How did you know I was holding a cleaver in my hand? :DQuote:

Yea I knew that, and that's exactly the problem. It doesn't bring up any sort of error message saying the codec isn't installed, it just says to itself "well what the heck! Let's play it anyways". And so the player'll not see the video.Quote:

When i say lazy, i mean 'Unprofessional' Instead you could have it check the user's reg or a system file to see if the correct driver's are present.
