I searched the forum and came across a couple threads and scripts but not quite what I need. Either too complex or they don't seem to work.

I just need to be able to run an AHK YouTube video player, pulling a specific video from YT and playing it in the AHK GUI.

I'm thinking a browser control instance (IE or FF), no bells and whistles needed other than autosize GUI to size of video. It just needs to be part of another AHK script. When the script is launched, it plays the video, when done destroy GUI, and then goes on to complete the rest of the script's actions (which include additional GUIs).


Any ideas? Thx. in advance.

a browser control is really the only way to go
but i dont have time to code it for you but if you play with seans iecontrol.ahk and COM.ahk I am sure you can get goin

Thanks tank for the very fast reply. Just one follow-up question to your reply.

Are both scripts browser agnostic or only work with IE? Most of those I want to share the script with use FF and rest use IE.

Thx.

There is a mozilla control but
If your mounting it in a gui it wont matter just use the standard browser control it has nothing to do with the default browser on the users system
