WoWVid creates an blank frame with adjustable RBG values, using this
frame. The blank frame with the proper color set will allow video to
"show through" being played by any other software operating in overlay
mode. Most TV software and most accelerated DVD or video playback
software operates in overlay mode as it reduces CPU usage.
Options
-------
Move
Resize
Lock/Unlock
Hide/Show
Custom background
KeyBindings
Left-clicking the WoWVid icon on your minimap will toggle the option menu
where you can change the background color with 3 sliders. There is also
an option to show/hide the Frame. Right-clicking on the WoWVid icon will
lock the frame so it cannot be moved or resized.
----------
If you are using one of the following players you dont need to change the RBG values in the options: (tested players only, if it works in another player please post it)
Windows Media Player
Winamp
RealPlayer
----------
1) Play a video on the player. Resize it to be the size that you want it to show up in game and place it on your desktop to where you want it to be in game
2) Run WoW. Once youve selected your character and are in game there should be a BLACK window in WoW. If not open the options window by R-Clicking the WV Icon on your minimap. Make sure the box next to Show/Hide WoWVid is checked
3) Move the black box by dragging it to where you placed you player on your desktop. You can resize WoWVid if needed by using the little resize circle in lower right corner of the WoWVid Window. It is important that the WoWVid Window and your Player window line up or you will see no video.
