VB 2010: Create a setup along with all resources

[Paul Shane]

Hey,

So I want to create a setup.exe for my program, so I could install it on other computers as I have a resource folder. The problem is that, because I have a resource folder,which I have videos in it, when I install it on another computer, the videos won't play as the url is different (I have a windowsmediaplayer inside my program which I put the url of the video). Now what I want is that, when I create a setup folder, and install it on another computer, the videos would play without having to change the url.

Thanks in advance

Use relative urls or insert the root with Application.StartUpPath

Images are saved inside the program once they are inserted. Can't I do that with videos, in some way? I just want the video to start up once the program is open, no matter where the file is saved.

Yup. You can add files to a standard resource file. Project > Add Component > Resource File
