I have been searching for a reason why I am unable to get WMV video files to
work in Director. I am using Director MX 9.0. I saw a post on a forum saying
that one should have a newer version of DirectX and I have downloaded that and
installed it but I am still unable to import the WMV file...or should I say
that it imports under ALL FILES but I see no option for WMV and when I get it
into direct it just shows as place saver, it wont play on the stage. Can anyone
possibly aid me in finding out why I cant get WMV files working? This is for a
work assignment and I am being held up because of this...thanks in advance.

I believe that the 1st version to support WMV files is MX 2004 (version
10), so you would need a new version of Director in order to play those
files. You can still use Quicktime (and I think Real, but I'm not sure
about that).

okay, I was afraid of that, I couldnt find anything to confirm this and didnt want to upgrade if the version I have will do it (but I was just missing something)

Thanks
