Works on the machines I have here?

What error do you get? What value does load video return? The video being played is a MP4 and have you checked if you have a MP4 codec installed?
Have you tried SetErrorMode(2) before the load video command so you get a error message?

it is recommended that you use wmv on Windows for maximum support. or
you use .mp4 files with the H264 (MPEG-4 AVC) codec for video. For audio it must be encoded in MP3 or AAC

it is dependant on having the codecs installed but you also have to chose a format that AppGameKit will support.

Failing that you could have installed bad codecs

It seems that this bug appears when the audio card is not found by Windows.
