Accessing .AVI As Embedded Resource

[rich_wenger]

I've got a project in VS2003 where I've added a number of images and a video clip as an embedded resource on 'Build Action'. I can access the images easy enough by using the following code: System.Drawing.Bitmap bitmap = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(GetType(), "sampleImage.jpg"); this.pictureBox1.Image = bitmap; The problem is accessing the embedded .AVI; both the ActiveX Windows Media Player and the DirectX AudioVideoPlayback require a string pointing to a file? Accessing Video File Thru ActiveX Windows Media Player Control: private AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer axWindowsMediaPlayer1; this.axWindowsMediaPlayer1.URL = "sampleVideo.avi"; Accessing Video File Thru DirectX 9: using Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback; Video vid = new Video("sampleVideo.avi", false); Any help would be greatly appreciated.
