Yep, they give you a pair of dlls.  Their SDK has a NextFrame function,
but we used their function that decodes the frame for a given time.
This allowed us to use our audio engine to drive the sound and then sync
the video to the sound exactly regardless of any interruptions that
often occur on windows.

Hm, I wasn't even expecting anything like installing a codec into
Windows at all... Do they have something like a dll that you can load
and use to decode files in a DecodeNextFrame() manner?

Thanks,
Alen
