I don't know if it already exist on opensource world, but what about a
new "openchessmedia" format?!, any videofile with subtitles in the way
of a "pgn" file would do the job!, it's a very powerfull idea (thanks
Esteban) and i believe it's worth it to try... (fot those of you who
knows how to ge into that stuff!!! ::)

Yes, is true.
Altough, I suppose that thats DVDs are not other thing that a video
with a PGN as subtitle (or at least, It would be a good idea to make a
ChessDVDPlayer). It would be investigated to learn about the structure
of thats CDs with a software like Gaupol or a DVD ripper.
If this subtitle file be encripted, someone would renderized it in a
file of form of a timeseries. It is not important the data, the
important thing is catch the moments at the moves are played.
For example: If I have a game 1.e4 e5 2.Cf3 Cc6, a subtitle file would
be like
_ _ _ _ _ _ 1.e4_ _ _ _ e5 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _2.Cf3_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Cc6
where each space is a frame in the video
I am hipoteting that In a encoded format the format would be presented
like:
_ _ _ _ _ _ FTY&%_ _ _ _ ()UIRF _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _HV&J_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ IUIU(/
If I know the game played, There are no limitations to reproduce the game

Hi!
will Scid have a tool to view the animated videobooks (that
combine the escriture, a winboard and the video
simultaneosly) of chess?
is this something reachable or is panningful difficult?
I drop in concience when lans week went to my chess-librarian,
ask for cd's, and more than a half were video-chessgames
If you refer to ChessBase video tutorials and stuff (ie. things
called ChessMedia) I fear this is not possible for some reasons:
- ChessBase database format is undocumented
- ChessMedia relies on WindowsMedia framework
- Both is quite tied to the Windows platform
Therefore, I fear you'll have to use the ChessBase player that
comes with such DVDs.
