This may be too little too late, but it doesn't seem like you should
have to worry about associations. How are you trying to play the file
with WMP? You shouldn't have to import any video files; just drop the
ActiveX control into a sprite and use
wmp = sprite(yourActiveXSprite)
wmp.filename = yourVideoPath
That'll start playing the file. However, if you use something like
wmp = member("MyWMPActiveXControl") -- <-- don't use this
wmp.filename = yourVideoPath
That would replace the ActiveX castmember with a QuickTime castmember,
if the file located at <yourVideoPath> is an MPG that you play on Mac.
Could this have been what was happening?
