Running a Video(AVI) or GIF on PDA module in LabVIEW

[FraggerFox]

Hi all,

I have an application in mind which I would use in my PDA using PDA module for LabVIEW. But the problem I am facing is that the Windows Pocket PC emulator is not running any animated gif image, and does not support any imaq function for video...........can anyone please help me in running a video on PDA using PDA module in LabVIEW?

Thanks!

Hi Parag,

see this thread please. Maybe it helps to play a gif on your pda.

Hi Parag,

I don't think you can run a video file from the PDA module itself. For reading a GIF file and displaying the image in a picture control, have a look at PDA Load Image File VI. Also, there is an example in Mobile Module 8.6 that shows how to use it...Mobile->General->Load Image from File.

How did the example provided in the Example Finder not help you? Did you get an error? What are the steps you took, what were you expecting and what happened?
