//--------------------------------------------------------------------------- MiniFlash.exe - Mini Flash Player Version 1.02.01 / Feb 20, 2006
Designed to show a flash movie in a minimal window of a specific size, with specific title, and launched with flash variable arguements. This last part is key, since the normal flash player from macromedia doesn't seem to be able to set variables. //---------------------------------------------------------------------------
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version History v1.00.01 - Jan 2006 - first beta v1.02.01 - Feb 20, 2006 - added option to remove titlebar and borders //---------------------------------------------------------------------------
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Usage: MiniFlash.exe fullfilename argstring width height scalemode "title caption"
for example: MiniFlash.exe "c:\myflashfile.swf" "arg1=1&arg2=2" 640 480 0 "my flash!"
scalemode is from macromedia and should be a number as follows: 0 - ShowAll, 1 - NoBorder, 2 - ExtractFit, 3 - NoScale, 4- Low 5 - AutoLow, 6 - AutoHight, 7 - Hight, 8 - Best, 9 - AutoMedium 10 - Medium
the common scalemodes are 0 for normal display that preserves aspect ratio and 2 for fit to window and stretch (aspect ratio not preserved)
tricks: specify "x" as the title caption to remove the titlebar and borders completely. //---------------------------------------------------------------------------
