Phil,
You just supply the path to the file on the CD & hope that the registered
application for the machine you are using is WMP. If not, it will open it in
the program associated with that particular file extension
So you could say:
[Autorun]
open=myvideo.wmv
icon=myicon.ico
If you have a folder which the WMV resides then you need to add that to the
path:
open=setup\myvideo.wmv and so on
The above will be good enough for what you want without getting too
technical & adding verbs...
Don't forget you have winamp, divx or the dvd apps that can be registered to
that file type
