Using Gifs or AVIs in Delphi 5

by mattreid . Updated 22 years, 9 months ago

I would like to know how I could get an animated Gif or an AVI to display in Delphi.

I’ve gone through the help files with regard to AVIs but the example shown(using both the ‘animate’ and ‘mediaplayer’ objects) only works with the file you are told to open, every other one I’ve tried gives the error “cannot open AVI”.

And as far as I know the Gif format is unrecognised in both the ‘animate’ and ‘mediaplayer’ objects.

Thanks
