[jeffbroodwar]

Hi,

I'm researching on how can i read a .avi file in java. I'm planning to use it in a dialog box (when deleting files in windows) with progress bar. Any ideas? Thanks.

Regards,
Jeff

I'm not saying you should use it, I was just trying to make sure I understand your question. You can research about it and find out what it has to offer.

Sorry for non-optimized implementation ..
I think it would be useful for AVI reading
