Hi Pierre,
 
#  Is it possible to get a status of the position of a video file played by MpegPlayer ?
 
Currently it is not possible to get the current position of a file being played with CascadeMPEGPlayer.
You only get notifications of when a file starts playing and stops playing.
 
#  Can I skip a video in a list of queued files queued by CascadeMPEGPlayer::QueueFile( ), and continue to read the other files
previously queued ?
 
Also not currently, but you could do the same thing by always keeping exactly 2 clips queued as follows:
Queue clips 1 and 2 so that the transition from 1->2 will be seamless.
When you are notified that 2 has started playback, queue clip 3.
This will give you the type of dynamic property you seek,
but at a larger level of granularity.
 
-Don

I' ve got 2 questions about programming the roku as a video player :
 
#  Is it possible to get a status of the position of a video file played by MpegPlayer ?
 
#  Can I skip a video in a list of queued files queued by CascadeMPEGPlayer::QueueFile( ), and continue to read the other files
previously queued ?
