Hi

A little confused as to whether video can be used in an applet or not.  I've seen messages in the forum which say you can't but the documentation says you can and I have a working example (see below).  Can anybody clear this up for me and if video can work in an applet, can its playback be made smoother (i.e. is there a way to download the movie before it plays?.  Thanks in advance.

import processing.video.*;
Movie myMovie;

void setup()
{
 size(400, 400);
 background(0);
 // Load and play the video in a loop
 myMovie = new Movie(this, "http://www.pibmug.com/files/cat_herders.mov");
 myMovie.loop();
}

void movieEvent(Movie myMovie) {
 myMovie.read();
}


void draw()
{
 image(myMovie, 20, 20);
}
