    Really good as always! I will be using/testing that video player on my desktop as soon as you release it - and no doubt using some of its internals. I do have to remake my old audio player and it could do with in-built video capability, which it used to farm out to WMP in the old .js version..

    I'm going to have to delay the public release; the idea was that the VB6 version could also be imported into tB, but there's a bug preventing that.

    But since you're interested I put preview versions of both VB6 and tB on GitHub, https://github.com/fafalone/ucSimplePlayer

    The VB6 version works only in VB6. The .twinproj is the original twinBASIC version, not the shared codebase version, so it works in tB. The code is almost identical; just the original tB version has controls on the bottom I moved to the top in VB so I didn't have do a ton a manual size/pos calculations tB's achoring handles automatically, and of course uses WDL instead of oleexp and as such doesn't have the APIs in the form, and lacks the conditional compilation mess around the refcount issue.
