    Hey NG I am looking for a Video Player, which can play different types of Video Format. For example: mpg, vob, divx, Flash, PowerPoint and so on. Does anybody know, where I can get something like that, or how to make such a player? I am using VB2005 Yours faithfully - THX

      There is no player that can play all those formats. Most of the video formats require that codecs be installed, like vob and divx, in order for any player to play them. I don't know of any player that can play ShockWave/Flash AND PowerPoint AND any video stream. Making a player like this yourself would require a enormous amount of work on your part and a complete understanding of each file format you want to support, like Flash or PowerPoint, and how to parse and render them.

          Maybe, but I doubt it.
