1499 l

Added "DAT" to list of video extensions. This was a specific request to help a user. Version 1.1 will allow you to change the list of extensions that are associated with video and audio clips so I can be cut out of the loop.

Added IsWinXP to WINVER and modified the values returned by SHORT and LONG to be more specific and include Windows XP. You can now use WINVER to reliably detect Windows XP.

A lot of new users were asking why their EXEC commands no longer worked so I added support for the Flash EXEC command. This was implemented as an alias for the RUN command so anything you can do with RUN can now be done with EXEC as well.

Added some advanced MEDIA commands to build 1499. The VIDEO example demonstrates how to use these commands. These commands will not be officially documented until Version 1.1 is released and they may change before then, use them at your own risk. If you NEED to use them for a specific project, contact support@northcode and I'll provide whatever assistance I can.

The MEDIA.PLAY, VIDEO, AUDIO and PLAY commands will create a variable, _root.ssMediaPlay when they are called. ssMediaPlay will be either "OK" or "ERROR" to indicate whether Studio was able to play the video or not. You can use this as a test to determine whether the user needs to install the codec you used to encode the video.
