I have been reading your messages with autodesk regarding their animation player I and many others have been having the similar problems. if you are going to strictly use the mci function to play animations you will only be able to get it to run at 320×200 in the center of the screen. the scripting files do not work. It is a major problem and is hampering the use of some sophisticated graphics and interactivity. My company HamCoor has been try to get around this problem for some time as is some of the larger authoring companies. In particparticular, Aimtech(makers of icon author) and authorware Professional. If you use the dll their are many limitations. A sample of what you may be looking for is in the multimedia vedors forum go multiven in the author ware professional files folder under something like animation player. I have also been working with iconauthor to get this solved. It would be a MAJOR breakthrough in windows interactive multimedia if a interactive full screen (or partial screen) driver could be written. I have one of my programmers currently working on this. I would love to get anyother programmers and autodesk involved to solve this.
