Wouldn't there be a way to get video to work if you used a small player that ran almost independantly, like say media player classic? you could copy media player classic to the hard drive then run a batchfile, call it playvideo.cmd, to start media player classic from DetachedProgram? This sounds like it would work and I plan on trying it out but let me know what you guys think. Of course the video file will have to be something windows can play without needing codecs.
