For sure. I'll go through some tutorials first so I can at least understand how to read it... that shouldn't take *too* long.

Though, for the purposes of getting this project up and running, I might just use a .bat file to run the media file, wait a bit, and then execute the C code just because that's what I know how to do. After all, the only important part that really needs to run without any interruptions (and therefore needs to be the most efficient) is the corruption stage, so the .bat file can be as inefficient and clunky as it wants until it passes of the reins to the C section (minus the baby).

For the purposes of the tutorial though, I'll try to look a little deeper into C to see if I can keep the number of pieces to the package down to 2: the media file and the C file. No guarantees though... I know C is a pretty complicated language to learn.
