WOW
You are working on an interactive program, not just a player. That's impressive. About 30 years go the QBasic Forum was working on jpeg encoders. On the simple side we had the makings of a child's learning tool. Multiple choice this picture is
A) Apple
B) Orange
C) Pear
D) Something Steve grew that's unrecognizable.
Just being able to get a jpeg in the QB64 window was a feat back then. You could still shell out to whatever Windows jpeg viewer was the default, back then, but it looked sloppy. Anyway, making the controls to manipulate the video is amazing. Just now thinking of the video tracks, indexing them, and making a menu system of a golf swing. YOu could take the same swing, index the components, and make the video run slow mo, regular speed, repeat, or just run a segment or pause at different points without the need to keep pressing keys.
