URGENT: AVI Playing problems in Director

Asked by millsoft in Adobe Director

Tags: director, avi, extra

This problem concerns running the director player directly, not in a web browser.

We are using the following code to show an AVI movie in director:

on exitFrame me
if sprite(5).duration=sprite(5).movieTime then
go to "startMainMenu"
else
go to the frame
end if
end

Sprite(5) is an AVI/Video sprite connected to an AVI file on disk.

Examining .duration, we see 4924 ticks ( about 82 seconds ), but that appears wrong. The AVI actually ends at 76 seconds (approx 4550 ticks). This is demonstrated by: (1) the properties of the AVI file itself reports 1:16 in Windows Explorer and (2) the AVI actually plays for 1:16 in WinAmp & Windows Media Player.

But in director, the movie plays for the full 4924 ticks, and the sprite remains active, so the user has the privledge of staring at a black screen for an extra 5 seconds or so.

Has anyone seen this before? How do I fix it?

Thanks,
Brad
