mciPlayFile needs a message queue, the HWND supplies it. ( I guess )

You need to take a look at mciSendCommand.
Look at the message-commands MCI_OPEN, MCI_PLAY and MCI_CLOSE.
The MCI_PLAY_PARMS structure has a callback option, use that one for
intercepting MM_MCINOTIFY.

If you're unable to make it work, ask me for a sample code. I've delt with
it a while ago and I have to dig deep for a working example.

( I think I've seen the Multimedia online manuals at
http://www.austin.ibm.com/os2games )

Toedeloe,
Jorgen de Gier
