Title: Video Playback Problem
Post by: Cindy_B on February 09, 2004, 10:41:20 pm

Thanks for fixing video (mpg) playback from 10.0.64.

However, videos (mpg) are now playing on a "Active Movie Window" and not within MC's "Playing Now Window" or my second monitor (TV).

If this is the new direction MC will be playing videos then the "Active Movie Window" needs to take direction from MC's "Display Options"  for location and aspect ratio settings. When playing the "Active Movie Window" fullscreen it shows the top toolbar.  Window also retains no memory of placement or size.

I don't understand what you're saying.  Can you describe exactly what you see?

I just tested build 65 and the playback of both mpg and mpeg files is in the Full Screen view.

Did you try setting what you want in Options/General/Behavior?

It's a little window that pops up over MC.  The name on the top toolbar of this window reads "Active Movie Window".   The videos play within this window and only in this window.  I have not changed any of my display settings, everything still set to  "second monitor" display.   I can't seem to control the display to play on my TV (second monitor) or within MC.
