Movie controls

The originals play a movie from its first picture to its last: OpenMovie, DrawMovie, MoviePlaying and CloseMovie. BlitzLLVM adds commands to control the playback. A movie that is opened still plays by itself the first time it is drawn or asked about, so programs that use only the original commands behave as before.

Command What it does
PauseMovie Holds the picture, stops the sound and the clock of the movie.
PlayMovie Goes on after a pause.
MovieLength How long the movie is, in seconds.
MoviePosition Where the movie is, in seconds.
SeekMovie Puts the movie at a position, in seconds.
StopMovie Stops the movie and puts it back at its start.
LoopMovie Makes the movie begin again at its end.
MovieVolume Sets how loud the sound of the movie is.
GetMovieTexture A texture that shows the movie, for surfaces in 3D scenes.
