OPENING VIDEO

Choose this icon to open video fileChoose this icon to show Open dialog box and select a movie file you want to load. After hitting OK, the movie player tries to open the file and initialize it, which may take a second, especially by DivX movies. Once the movie is initialized, display shows movie duration in frames right under movie status. Most right field on status bar displays filename and full path of loaded video.

   I've implemented Microsoft Windows Media Player™ so you can open any video your Media Player is capable of playing (even an audio file, but because audio does not have frames, display shows time in seconds and this is was tested, so expect some abnormalities). The default extensions supported are *.avi, *.mpg, *.dat, *.asf and *.vob but if you have movie with different extension, you can change filter in open dialog box to show all files (*.*).
