There is! A look under "play" in the dictionary might open your eyes!dalkin wrote:but there is no way to set "show controller" or send a "stop playing command" to the embedded Quicktime.
Yes, the "controller" bar is a QuickTime only feature!dalkin wrote:It seems that there are no controls once you start playing a video.
No, it can't!dalkin wrote:Can it possibly be true then that LiveCode can't play video in .mov or wmv format on a standalone built for Windows,
even when Quicktime for Windows is installed and all .WMV files are set to open in Windows Media Player?
True. In life I'm a cartoonist and I'm very good at my job. I don't natively write code but I'm prepared to spend as much time as I can to develop new skills. Take a look at my latest project at http://www.homesalebureau.com.au if you like. What has attracted me to LiveCode is the willingness of people to help others who, like me, want to push the envelope in their core areas of expertise. I've always been positive that LiveCode is the best platform for this. In the end, the thing that worked was Dixie's contribution:Not sorry to be blunt, but you simply don't know what you are doing.
