I've just had a brief wander through the MCI functions and macros in the
PSDK.  Looks to me like you can pre-open the file using an IAVIFile object,
then pass the file to your MCI window using MCIWndOpenInterface.  Of course
being COM, it's likely to not be that simple.

Anyone done it this way?  Comments?
