            level waittill("?????");

{
    self endon("disconnect");
    b_hide_hud = true;
    self flagsys::set( "playing_movie_hide_hud" );
    self util::show_hud( 0 );    
    lui_menu = self OpenLUIMenu( "FullscreenMovie" );
    if(isDefined(lui_menu))
    {
        self SetLUIMenuData( lui_menu, "movieName", str_movie );
        self SetLUIMenuData( lui_menu, "movieKey", "" );
        self SetLUIMenuData( lui_menu, "showBlackScreen", false );
        self SetLUIMenuData( lui_menu, "looping", false );
        self SetLUIMenuData( lui_menu, "additive", 0 );
        wait .45;
        self playsoundtoplayer( sound, self );
        wait timeout;                          
        self CloseLUIMenu( lui_menu );
        self notify( "movie_done" );
        self flagsys::clear( "playing_movie_hide_hud" );
        self util::show_hud( 1 );
        self notify( "movie_done", "fullscreen" );
    }
}

and that is it will play video you put where "video name" is for the time you set where video time is and will stop on its own and sound you put "sound to play"
