Notes:

• The Bink files need to be on your harddisk, they can't be packaged into a BSA File.

• The filename needs to be in quotes

• The path to the filename is relative to Oblivion\Data\Video\

• If the AllowEscapeFlag is non-zero, the user can interrupt the bink by hitting the escape key. Otherwise, they have to wait for it to play all the way to the end.

• Stops any script that it is called in from running while the .bik file is played.

• PlayBink works in the console.
