Okay, I have an 800x600 MPG that I am loading and playing (or trying to). It plays, but it runs very choppy. Any way I can fix this? Here's da code as usual:



Thanks.

No one has any idea? Well let me just say how much sense this does not make! The movie plays fine (full screen) in Windows Media Player and even WinAmp (new to movie playback). Also, I can load and play the video in VisualBASIC without any problems - so what's the deal??? Why does it run so choppy?

Rich, any ideas?

Gargh. This mean I have to wait till next patch, or even patch 6er if they don't bother to fix it in 5???

Well then I guess I have to go to my last resort, which is programming the intro/launch program in cpp or vb and having it launch the game part after the intro is shown.
