Good morning.

I want play video. I tried this (but not working):

+ Code Snippet

#include "DarkGDK.h"
void DarkGDK ( void )
{
	dbSyncOn();
	dbSyncRate(60);
	dbLoadAnimation("file in MPEG, AVI, Quicktime, WAV, AIFF, AU or SND format",1);
	//dbLoopAnimation(1); 
	//dbPlaceAnimation(1, 0, 0, 100, 100);
	dbPlayAnimation(1); 

	while (LoopGDK())
	{dbSync();}
}

Please help.
Thank you.

The animation commands were taken out of DarkGDK becuase of a change in DirectX. Search the forums for more information

I guess there are alternative ways to meet that end but I haven't heard of any decent alternatives. the one that made the most sense to me so far (just reading.... I havent tried these) is AVI file format, and literally loading the movie frames yourself and using timers to make them "play" like a flip-paper animation you might draw in a notebook.

Hmm, you know I think I might be able to do this in DirectX inside GDK. Might be very useful to lots of people. Ill see what I can do.
