Irrlicht Engine

Thanks for the reply.
Well primarily for intro scenes & cut-scenes (a main feature of my game). Simple video playback in other words (AVI, MPEG, or others like THEORA) AudioVideoPlayback *did* seem like the perfect solution but after 1-2 months working with it I discarded it finding out from MVPs ...

Ah, ok I see now. I must say the reason I mentioned audio was only because it would be nice to have audio together with the video playback. Video playback is the main desired feature, sorry I didn't mention that before.

Thanks for both your replies. It is unforunately just in .NET I want to play video. AudioVideoPlayback is actually bugged for DirectX usage (and slow as you said too). I've been trying to use DirectShow.NET for the *video* at least but it's so complex that I haven't managed to do it yet. Oh, and ...

Hi, I've just come accross the Irrlicht engine and it looks great except for two things - it seemingly does not support:
-Audio Playback (e.g. MP3, WAV)
-Video Playback (e.g. MPEG, AVI)
Are there any (simple?) ways to do these sorts of things with Irrlicht?
Thanks in advance.
