Hi MTec89

Have you tried AVI-GIF ?

The address is http://www.ucansoft.com

Sorry this program is ShareWare, but is worth the money if you want to convert a lot of gif's - cant remember if it's crippled
in anyway, ie watermark in converted gif's, or if it's a 30 day trial, best to try it and see what results you get.
And will allow you to convert AVI to GIF and GIF to AVI, i use it, to convert some gif's to avi's for use in a few of my scripts.

As for getting an avi to play in a dialog, Online helped me with a similar question ages ago. (just searched for it)

Here's the code he used
Code:
alias mdx_fullpath { return $+(",C:\Program Files\MDXStudio\MDX.DLL,") } [color:green];(or wherever you keep the mdx.dll file)[/color] 

alias mdx { dll $mdx_fullpath $1- }
alias mdxinit {
  dll $mdx_fullpath SetMircVersion $version
  dll $mdx_fullpath MarkDialog $dname
}
dialog anim1 {
  size -1 -1 313 203
  title "Dialog"  
  button "positioner",1001,0 0 0 0
  button "OK",1,3 5 60 30, ok
  button "",2,4 34 300 160
  text "A bunch of text",3,63 6 173 17
}
on *:dialog:anim1:init:0:{
  mdxinit
  mdx SetControlMDX $dname 2 animation > C:\Program Files\MDXStudio\ctl_gen.mdx  [color:green];(or wherever you keep the ctl_gen.mdx file)[/color]
  did -a anim1 2 open $scriptdirtest.avi
  did -a anim1 2 play
}


I have my MDX.DLL kept in my script folder, but in the case of the example above, for faster loading and easier access
when creating scripts that use MDX, i also keep it in the MDXStudio folder too (thats why in my example it's where it is)
MDXStudio can be found at http://www.scripting.gr/~rg/index.php if you dont already have it.

Hope this helps
