I misread portativity too but they're similar anyway. It isn't hard to store the video as a custom property, write it to the temp folder on demand, and assign a player to that filename. Later just delete the temp file.

I've done this and it works fine.

One of the reasons why videoClip and AudioClip are useful
is to do with portativity.

That would be true - if playing a videoclip didn't use a temporary
player object 'under the hood' - i.e. you get no more with using
videoclips than you do with players with regards portability...

Ignore that - I misread 'portativity' as 'portability' :)

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
