The video annotation object (ANNOBJECT_VIDEO) is a rectangle containing a scaled image that can be activated to play an AVI file or capture a multimedia file. With the automated methods, in design mode, the user clicks and drags to specify the rectangle in the current window. Holding down the Shift key while drawing the rectangle will make the video annotation square. A dialog box then lets the user specify the preferred options. In run mode, clicking on the icon plays the AVI file.

For playing the video, DirectX must be installed.

To capture an AVI file from a video card, LTCAP14N.DLL is required.

In design mode, click on the object with the right mouse button to do the following:
