Process Purpose
The "Video Control" process is used to force the execution of a specific operation in a Video Player control. These operations relate to video player controls such as "Play", "Pause", "Move Forward/Backward", "Start Full Screen", etc. This process allows for a more controlled video viewing experience at program level instead of just relying on the exposed video player controls that can be used by the operator handling the device. Ex: You can choose not to have exposed video player controls such as "Play", "Pause", "Move Forward", etc, and instead use this process to start and/or stop the defined video when required. This way, the operator cannot jump forward, he must view the entire video.
When you add a process, you are required to define its settings. This occurs in the process's properties window which is displayed automatically after having added the "Video Control" process.
If any subsequent edition is required, double-click the process to open its properties window and enter the necessary modifications.
