I'm writing a project with Visual Basic 3.0. I want to include several FLC files in this project and have the playback redirected to a window of my choice. In the past I've have used the AAPLAY.VBX custom control which works fine, but in this instance, (due to space restrictions) I want to re-direct the playback to another window, which is also being used to playback digital video (from an Actionmedia II card). I have re-directed MCI stuff to various windows by supplying the Hwind to the MCI custom control supplied by Microsoft, and all the AVI files (both AVI and INDEO) work fine like this, but the MCIAAP.DRV that I have on my system (16,912 bytes, 06/29/92) doesn't seem to like re-directing the playback, and always displays in the centre of the screen. Is there an up-dated driver? Does it work at all? Thanks Jerry Quartley
