I have a long list of latitudes, longitudes, altitudes, and some compass readings in a comma separated values (.csv) file. I would like to have FS 2004 play these as a video clip. This means I need a utility that would convert my text file list of values into a bunch of frames.

(and I would imagine, come up with "dummy" stand-in FLT, PDIB, ODIB sections of the .fsr file)

Pete, Do you make such a utility? Does anyone know of such a utility? I would a) Pay for a copy or b) Pay to have one made (if reasonable co$t)

Please note: I do *not* want to use any sort of pipe, or inter-process communication. I just want an .fsr file that I can play back like anyother FS 2004 video clip, without having to run any other app while FS is running.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Yes. .fsr are the file format used by FS to store video clips. I have built such a utility but it only works about 85%. I'm stumped on how to achieve the last %15.

I'm private pilot and I'm also interested by playing a real flight in flight sim with a conversion of flight data to fsr file.

It seems that nothing exist already except maybe the 85% of KLMorris done.

I'm software engineer and would be grateful if I can get some sources in order to achieve the goal (don't have much time to start from zero).
