I'm trying to implement a window which will "play any content" in my
app. In the past, I was using a QuickTime MoviePlayer control,
which handled quite a bit of content. However, in the past few years
QuickTime has (to many people's frustration) basically dropped
support for Flash under QuickTime, being stuck at ActionScript level 5.
It seems as if the best alternative is to use a HTMLViewer control,
since this will automatically support Flash or QuickTime content with
the latest plugins if they are installed, and of course will render
HTML as well.
My question is this -- I'd really like to support playback of
arbitrary 3D animations. Is there any sort of standard 3D animation
format that includes plugins for all 3 platforms that would work via
the HTMLViewer control? In other words, is there any sort of 3DMF-
like file format which includes not only model & texture definitions,
but animation scripting as well?
The end goal would be that I could tell customers "save your 3D
animation in XYZ format, and my app can play it back for you".
