Need an ANIM player with Arexx port

[KONEY]

I'm looking for an Anim player with some precise features. i'm not sure if such a piece of software even exists but any help is appreciated.

The program must be able to load an anim in ram (no disk play) and must have an Arexx port so that START, STOP etc could be triggered from a script.

Ideally Personal Paint does this but it's too much RAM expensive and it will play the animation for everytime a PLAY is triggered, generating a queue while I need to just stop the animation and restart it if a new PLAY is received while executing the previous.

I need this because from Octamed Soundstudio I plan to attach these PLAY Arexx events to some notes playing with the aim of automatically generate some basic animations from music modules. (example: an animation of a vu-meter that starts at every bassdrum )

Any suggestion

thanks!

AnimFX has a small ARexx port (only play no stop). Mainactor has much more commands but I don`t know if it fits your needs. Maybe there are more or better anim player.

Thanks, sadly it needs to re-init the animation everytime

maybe AnimFX
arexx commands: AFXEXIT AFXINIT AFXPLAY AFXSCAN (only found in the binary)
AFXEXIT could be kind of "AnimStop" command
I was also looking for Multiview, but it's arexx commands are not that usefull.
SuperView is another option, but it does only play mpeg files with an external program (akmpeg) - the related arexx commands:

      AKMPEG_ACTIVE=<YES|NO>     akMPEG active ?               [ C T A ]
      AKMPEG_PLAYER=<Path+Name>  Where's the akMPEG player ?   [ C T A ]
                                 e.g. Work:akMPEG/PPCakmp
      AKMPEG_PARAM=<parameters>  Additional parameters         [ C T A ]
                                 for the CLI player, e.g.
                                 "-display=ov"
