If you change the type to image/jpeg does that work any better? The standard mime type declaration for a jpg file (as per http://www.w3schools.com/media/media_mimeref.asp ) is with an "e" in the jpEg reference. If the receiving server is checking to make sure that the right sort of file is being up...

That did not work at all at first. Post formed and looks like it sent, but image was not uploaded. I then put a "put it into msg" right after the POST line. I get empty. I noticed you had "File" in the liburlmultipartFormAddPart. The field name of the file uplaud field is actually "userfile" so I sw...

This is pretty close to the docs example for libURLMultipartformAddPart - so the following should be close. on mouseUp put "http://www.example.com/basic.php" into tURL put empty into tForm put "Upload" into tUpload get libUrlMultipartFormData(tForm, "upload", tUpload) if it is not empty then ##hand...

Ugg there just isn't enough info on these functions. I even found the LibURL docs but with only one example per function its not much help. Ok, i've figured out that I want to be posting to the basic.php url (that is the "action" of the form). Now I have built the post using libUrlMultipartFormData ...

I had some friends test the app on there machines and so far it's played on all of them so far, XP MCE, Vista, and XP home. I'm really starting to think that time has been kind to the VFW functionality of the Player and it can play WMV9 consistantly. I figure for dead sure ability I could always loo...

Keyless, I don't mind if you don't believe me, really. I believe I have sufficiently warned you about Rev's incapability to play modern WMV files. I can't do more than that. Best regards, Mark Mark it's not that I don't believe you, clearly you had tested this and found WMP it did not play. I'm jus...

WMI is Windows Management Instrumentation and involves managment fuctions for the OS, has very little to do with Video playback or rendering. Here is brief history of Video on windows machines: first: MCI - Windows 3.1 days. Used loose control framwork for all media playing (16-bit) Second: VFW - Wi...

As far as I know, Revolution doesn't use WMP and Codec 9. It uses WMI and only WMI. The deceptive part is that it *might* play, depending on circumstances, which I don't know (I have never checked it out and I stick to QT if I can). Best, Mark That is incorrect from what I have read and seen. It is...

Keyless, The problem is not getting a WMV to play. The problem is that not all WMVs will play correctly and some WMVs will play correctly on one but not on another machine. The only format that plays 99% reliably is the MCI compatible format (or whatever you want to call it). Best, Mark as long as ...

Well I'll be, I added: on Preopenstack set the dontUseQT to true set the dontUseQTEffects to true on preopenstack to my test stack and had someone create the standalone in 3.0 and it actually plays WMV as a standalone. My previous test did not include the dontuseQTEffects to true so it must have sti...

I confirmed that directshow does infact have a MCI subset so should work with with the player, I remember a stack in Rev onlive that played video with MCI commands, but don't find it now. I did a little Archive diving and found where Scott R decided to add Video for Windows API support (and consider...

The environment variable isn't going to change or your C++ application: changes to the environment variables are only passed to the child process once, on startup from within Revolution. So you'll probably want sockets or pipes to transfer the locations. Jan Schenkel. actually I was thinking more a...

Just wanted to report another good way of getting a nice video player to play WMV (in it's own window though). Create a html page with embedded player in your editor of choice and set it up to play a video file. Save out the HTML and then change the extension to .HTA. You can launch this HTA from re...

thanks for the info. I was thinking this from what Jan said, I could have the C++ program check an environmental variable that I set from Rev with the Rect location and move window accordingly. Though I actually like Mark's semi-docking idea now that I see what you meant. Though I suppose an externa...
