    May be that the player needs some window to play the video. May be you can set the automation to open own window for the video. May be it is not possible under NAV. But these are just tips what can be the problem...

    First be sure, that you have the correct codec.

    Second try this.
    Name	DataType	Subtype	Length
WindowsMediaPlayer	Automation	'Windows Media Player'.WindowsMediaPlayer	

if isclear(WindowsMediaPlayer) then
  create(WindowsMediaPlayer);

WindowsMediaPlayer.openPlayer('C:\Temp\Down\brain_colin27T1.avi');

    Do you make it right, it works too!

    Hi garak,
    i created the variable like
    Name DataType Subtype Length
    WindowsMediaPlayer Automation 'Windows Media Player'.WindowsMediaPlayer
    But it show the error like

    The variable WindowsMediaPlayer :: CURRENTPLA is defiend more than once.
    An Example could be: 'File' exists as both a data type and a global variable.

    here i created only one variable.


    Thanks & Regards,

    1) Try to use shorter variable name
    2) Try to define it as local variable

    Thanks for Reply kine & garak.

    but i want to open the vedio in navision form ok i will try that. what's the difference between the local variable and global variable in this situation. In here we are not create windowsmediaplayer variable more than once but it show the error more than one variable is created that means is it posible to use the windowsmideaplayer variable without create the variable.

    It is problem of variable name and max. length which is used in NAV... it behaves differently when defined as local and global...

    To be able to play the video in NAV form you will need to somehow get the NAV window handle etc. and it is not possible without creating special DLL for that...
