Hi Jon,
havent seen the source to include and catch an avi before... I hope the AVI is not so big... else it would be bad to have the complete avi in memory (also loaded with the exe into memory)... If the avi is big, it would make more sence to load and play it direct from disk i think.
If you only want to play an avi in a window, you can always use the MovieLib, take a look to the movie.pb included in pure package.

MrVain the avi is a converted AnimatedGif so it's really small. I tried to include the gif and use it in a webgadget but I cloudn't get that to work either. Both Avi and Gif work fine loading from disk but wont work when I use includebinary.
Anyway My objective is simply to get an animation which started out as An animated gif to be included in an exe then displayed when the exe has run
Any ideas would be really appreciated.
Cheers, Jon.

Jon, you can't use #ACM_OPEN with includebinary, that message needs to load the avi as a resource, not supported yet by PB.
