MciSendString Problem

Hi

I was trying to play a movie using the mciSendString Command set. It all works nicely, but the SetAudio Command.

Although I explicitly hand over the handle of the opened Avi when I set the volume this way, it refuses to alter the Movies individual volume, but sets the Volume of the system (the "Wave" Mixer Tab).

Is it only me, or is there some secret trick to make this work?

Please help, this is driving me crazy - well, even more.

EDIT: Uh, never mind, a lot more probems poped up, things I didn't realize in the first place. I dropped the idea of using mciSendString for Movies.
