this kind of stuff ...

I wonder, if we will be able to mix View with other (external) kind of
display (playing avi, mpegs inside View face e.g). I don't repeat it
just to sound like broken machine :-) I have some intention - we are
evaluating VIA EPIA small board as we want to build our own kiosk
system. Most stuff you can see in screenshots can be done, but I am not
sure about .avi etc. stuff. I got only to the level of manipulating face
image data in library level directly, but am curious, if someone already
experimented with some mpeg or avi libraries and getting pointer to
their frame-buffer?

Hola Pekr

I finally got my OpenGL experiment to a point where it's worth the trouble
of posting. It's not a complete rendering engine or anything, but it shows
how OpenGL can be used from View/Pro on Windows

looks cool, indeed. I am just curious, if there is any kind of API
available to WindowsMedia player for e.g.? Is here anyone experienced in
that regard with our community? I can find only SDL library - it is
cross-platform to some extent, but I am not sure it can be integrated
with View framebuffer easily ...

in escribe somewhere.

Hi, as long as you can get access to the device context (DC) of the View
face you should be able to BLIT to it. That's mostly what all those
libraries do: They take a DC as destination parameter and blit all the
output there. It just needs to be synced with Rebol in that the face
doesn't get redrawn from Rebol.

It should be. SDL is quite straigth forware. You can further have a look
at the MGL library (http://www.scitechsoft.com/) or TinyPTC
(http://www.gaffer.org/tinyptc/). Robert
