You could probably just poke your nose around the Web, like many of us
wind up doing to find answers to our unnanswerable questions. I seem to
recall some discussion a while back about using MCI to control QuickTime,
but that QT wasn't MCI compliant or something. I could be wrong.
Anyway, I do have a pretty huge document that explains the MCI structure
and syntax, and a quick glance didn't see much directly related to
disk-based digital video (plenty for laserdisc control hopwever). I
would guess you might make use of the basic media commands (play, pause,
stop, etc) to do what you want. If you'd like a copy of the (300K)
document, let me know offlist.
Regards,
