I would like to play video files with FFPLAY inside a VB6 window.

What is the problem you have? Do you get an error?

According to some threads on StackOverflow SetParent in combination with MoveWindow should work:

OK Arnoutdv,
I see this thread on StackOverflow but it don't solve my problem.
I can launch FFPLAY but i can't disable the console window and i can't resize then player window.
In fact, FFPLAY seems to not respond to SetParent....

I answer to myself.
When FFPLAY run, it creates 2 windows:
First is console
Second is the Player witch have a title (for example: 'FFPlayer')
How to retrieve the handle of this one ?

Hi vbcochin,
'Retrieve the window's handle of the specified window's title
Public Function WindowHandle(sTitle As String) As Long
WindowHandle = FindWindow(vbNullString, sTitle)
End Function
