AVI animation on VB.NET form howto?

Hi,
I tried to find how to show an AVI animation sequence like a "filecopy"
animation but did not find how to do that in VB. Is there a control in
VB.NET or any other way of doing it??

I be very happy for a code example if possible.....feeling a little lost for
the moment ;-)

The Multimedia sample's 'VideoFile' class can be used for playback of video
files within Windows Forms applications.

Herfried,
Thanx! I have tried it and it works but I can not figure out how to place it
on my form (maybe a stupid question), do you have an VB.NET example or a
hint of how to do it?

Place a panel control on the form, then use something like this to start the
animation:

\\\
Dim v As New VideoFile("C:\WINDOWS\clock.avi", Me.Panel1)
v.Play()
///
