Loading and playing movies
Author
I'm working on a simple movie and music player, based on SDL. I looked at the wotsit.org information on loading AVI files, and it looks increadibly convoluted. Also, their info isn't layed out very well on this subject.
I was wondering if anyone can point me to either a really good resource on loading common movie file formats, or to a library of some sort (this is in C++) that could accomplish this easily.
Thanks!

Yeah, I took a look at that. It uses some library called, I think, Video for Windows. My goal is to keep this program cross-platform, if possible, and I think that something called "Video for Windows" probably isn't [grin]. I'm also looking for something that will support more than just AVI, but all the same, thanks!
Any other suggestions would be awesome.

Take a look at this thread and this thread for information on using the GPL library SMPEG to get this done. For an alternative, take a look at this specific post for something that could do more than MPEG files.
