Re: MPlayer embed in a part of the application window

["Paulo Flabiano Smorigo" <pfsmorigo gmail com>]

Hi All,

José, I manage to run mplayer with the -wid option but the movie appears in the whole window. I want to put in a frame or some widget container...

My project needs mplayer to work, I can't switch... :(

Thanks again...

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to embed the mplayer inside the application like inside a frame or drawing area?
I'm trying to do but only as a separated window.

Yes, it's possible.  In answers to your previous questions, it is explained, but to be a bit clearer, you would have to run mplayer from a process in your program (so you would have to look into running processes in C++) and use mplayer's -wid option (man mplayer).  It was also suggested that you look into gstreamermm.
