How to play videos through Arma2 OA/ DayZ

[ImFazed]

This is for those of you who want to make awesome scripts!
This is local BTW..

This gets a little complicated on converting but otherwise is very simple.

What you will need.
A video
A Converter (I use mirovideoconverter. Google it.)

Put your video into your converter

If using micro video converter
1. Drag video or browse for it
2. Click Format
3. Ogg Theora

Convert the video.
It should converty to a .ogv file
Place this somewhere in the arma 2 oa directory

Next step.
Create a script.
This will play it through the GPS

_videoScript = ["path\video.ogv",1.04] spawn bis_fnc_customGPSvideo;

Profit???

That is certainly not possible under the limitations of the arma language

Could be a server admin slips the video into the mission files then you would download when you joined and then the admin runs it. Other that than you would need to look outside the arma language to do this
