Help: Video Integration

[JMars89]

Hi all, I'm trying to integrage video w/ my mod.

 

  After not much success, I've boiled down to one basic issue.

 

  Forge uses a special type called "ResourceLocation" to reference assets.

  Most video players use the type "File" to read video.

 

I can convert "ResourceLocation" to an input stream, but I can't get on from there. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

  Thanks,

So basically you want to convert a resourceLocation to a File object? I believe that there are methods to get the path of the resourceLocation meaning you can do something like this(dont know exact method, since Im not at my IDE)

File vidFile = new File(resourceLocation.getPath());
