that is great idea using eva eyes.

@Doombot I guess I will try to draw the basic faces and do what you said. I can use a script to run it. Thanks, Ron

I made a face, got it animated, transferred it to Movie Maker, ( a mp4 file). (My Movie.mp4)

I can run it on my desktop, but the script displays the face, but won't run the file. Anyone have any ideas why it won't work?

ControlCommand("Video Player", VideoPlay,"C:\Users\Ron\Desktop\My Movie.mp4")

Thanks,

I would transcode it to mpg from mp4. The manual doesn't specify the supported video types, but the examples are all mpg. I suspect it also works with AVI and WMV but probably not every video type.

Thanks for the info. I changed it to a .wpl and it didn't work. I will keep trying

try mpg, avi, or wmv. wpl is a windows media player playlist, not a video format.

You can't just change the name, you need to use your video creation software or transcoding software to re-encode it.

@ANDY You're getting there bud. A long time ago I tried to use my Acer w8 as a chest piece for one of my experiments, and I used a video of a live beating heart (pretty gory) on Video Player, in full screen. I must say the effect was pretty scary haha. I was prepping for an art installation a while back. But long story short, I used .avi and it worked fine.

Keep trying man

Yeah, I been using window media player, and converted it to a . wmv. Still ng. I can run the video in windows media player on my desktop, but not thru builder. With all my past test, when I start from scratch, I get the first frame, and that's it.
