Hi,

I am looking for an answer on how to play a avi file using the media player 
vcl, and over lay a picture partially over it, before any one posts "yes i 
can play avi files using the medial player vcl".

For example the avi is played in a panel how can i have a picture covering 
some of the playing video kinda like a border made up of a picture.?

Try adding a TImage component to the panel, that contains the picture that 
you want.

transparent and see the video through it

You can place other TWinControl descendant controls on top of the video. If 
you need a image, then I'd suggest creating your own TImage that descends 
from TWinControl.

Hi,

Try TVideoGrabber from http://www.datastead.com/vidgrab/

This feature is implemented by passing the image to the DrawBitmapOverFrame 
function.

You can also capture video frames including the overlayed image.

Look at the "image overlay" group in the MainDemo project for sample code.

        Hi Metro,

   Take a look at VideoLab at www.mitov.com . It has this functionality 
included and is free for non commercial purposes. Indeed it includes a 
demo program that does exactly that with Zero lines of code.
   With best regards,
       Boian Mitov
