[QUOTE="snorkis, post: 193768, member: 55813"] The problem is only that built in media player (ugh) can't play raw streams from avi, i created a rar plugin a couple days ago (used the skeleton from the rar plugin by and-81 ). It will unrar with the help of unrar.dll (for now) in a seperate thread and after x chunks of data it will launch mplayer , after mplayer is done the file is deleted. It only plays the first avi|mkv|ts|mpg so far.
