MoviePlaying:Int32 movie:Int32

Parameter	Mode	Type	Default	Description
movie	In	Int32	required	A movie handle from OpenMovie.

Returns: 1 while the movie plays, otherwise 0.

Description

Tells whether a movie is still playing. It becomes 0 when the movie reaches its end, so a loop can run until the movie is over.

Differences

• Nothing , the same as the original. It becomes 0 once the last picture has been shown and its sound has played, and calling it is what starts a movie that was not drawn yet. Movies do not loop: open the movie again to play it again.
• A debug build (-d) stops the program when the movie does not exist, for example the 0 of a movie that failed to open, other builds ignore the command, see Debug handle checks.
