Adding Video

You can add a video to your file by simply using the VIDEO element and defining where you want the video window to be placed.

Use the same code as you did in the Choosing Files section; all you need to do is add the VIDEO element with the top, left, width, and height attributes.

  

Then when you play a video, it will be displayed in the window. The art for the video sample was modified to make a slightly larger skin. Because layers were used in Photoshop, the buttons were easily moved around and a new set was created very quickly. Only the background image was changed. A fill was used in a blank layer and a bevel and emboss effect was added.

You can see a similar working video skin in the sample section of the SDK.
