Diamondback_uk - you give up? What do you mean? Please don't give up the blitzmovie project!
Barliesque : as far as I know the speed of the position command (setting the player to a certain frame) depends heavily on the compression codec. While in uncompressed Avis the player simply jumps to the frame you want, in compression codecs with keyframes it first has to jump to the last keyframe prior the wanted frame, then calculate all frames up to the wanted frame. On slwo computers this may take a lot of time, eg. on MP4 codecs it may take several seconds.
Playing the movie frame by frame is a lot faster, although still not 60 frames per second or so, when you have a big resolution, like eg. 720*576 Pixels (that's what I use it for, PAL DV-Camcoder format).
Currently I am working on a Bluebox App (well in fact it may use any masking color, prefered green these days), that is capable of putting a masked frame on a background frame, then recognize the contours of the masked object and blur them with the background, in respect to the interlaced Frames (BFF,TFF or progressive). Right now it needs folders with series of frames, but I'll be lucky when I once can deal with Avi movies as source too.
