Playing sound is
far more easier than playing Video. First of all, to play video you have to build a GUI, and provide whatever video library you're using with a space on which to render the video. The library you have to use really depends on the video format you're using (also true for audio), but Windows might have an API function to play AVI files, and then I'm completely wrong. If you wanna use
COM, then there is a Windows Media Player ActiveX control you can use to display all kinds of video formats (especially if codecs are installed on your system). Try searching
MSDN for "AVI" or something similar.
And one more thing. I hate Java. You're far off better with C++.
Good luck!
