Hi Klaus and bn

Thanks so much for your help. Got it working now!!

One thing I don't understand is if you can state 'play stop videoClip' and it stops whatever video is playing, why does 'play pause videoClip' not work in the same way?

Anyway, I'm getting there! Thanks again

Hi Klaus

Got myself a new problem now. How to stop the videos playing!!
At the moment, the user selects from a dropdown menu of 6 clips. Each time they select a new clip, it updates the player and plays the selected clip. Heres my script for one of the 6 videos:

on menuPick pItemName
switch ...

Hi Klaus

Just to let you know the 'play videoClip' command worked a treat.
All plays now.

Thanks so much for your help on this. Appreciate it.

Hi Klaus

Thanks for your advice.

I set the preOpenStack handler but nothing changed. This is my script in the stack script:

on preOpenStack
set the loc of this stack to the screenLoc
if the platform is "Win32" then set the dontUseQT to true
if the platform is "Win64" then set the dontUseQT to ...

Hi Klaus

No I'm not using that script. I'm using 'set the fileName of last player to..'

(I set the location of my mpg into the variable myPath)

set the fileName of last player to myPath
if not (there is a file myPath) then
beep
answer error "Can't find file" && myPath
else
if the platform ...

Hi Everyone,

I have an issue with a cross platform program being developed on a Mac.

I know this has been covered already but I was wanting to find the best solution to getting video to play on Windows. The file type I'm using is mpeg1.

My program has 6 videos being called using the Media Player ...

I will email you both individually with details.

Many thanks

Hi There

I have a programme I would like someone to help me with. Its mainly a database driven application needed for Windows and Mac with quite a bit of functionality built in for images, video and data grids. Could have great commercial potential.

I would provide all the rev stacks etc with ...

Thanks Mark
I agree and you're right, I do need to learn this. I'm still getting to grips with coding in Rev for more complex things but as always, I have time constraints especially with this current project.

Hence, SparkOut, your little work around has helped fill this gap.

Thank you both.

Hi Mark

Can I not say... if the revCopyFolder is done, show a window?

I tried this:
if revCopyFolder is done then
answer "The folder has finished copying" with "OK"
if it is "OK" then quit
end if

Didn't work though although I didn't get any script errors.

So in other words, could I get round ...

Hiya

Could someone let me know where I should look in order to get Revolution to provide a copy progress for what I'm trying to do?

The user has two folders on a cdrom. I have a little stack installer (autoruns from the cdrom) which asks them for the destination and then via revCopyFolder, it ...

Thanks shadowslash

But isn't there a way to tell Windows and MacOS to show its own progress bar as it would any copying of folders normally?

If the revCopyFolder is able to copy all the files and subfolders within it without having to specify every file, can't this drive a progress bar itself ...

Hi Everyone (again!)

I have a quasi installer stack which simply asks the user to select a location for a folder and then my script copies the folder from the cdrom into that location.

It all works fine however since the folder is around 350Mb, I wondered if its possible to get a copy progress bar ...

Thanks Mark

Will give that a go

Hi Mark

Thanks for your response.
I have actually managed to get a script which works on Windows now after some trial and error:

on mouseUp
if the platform is "MacOS" then
set the itemDel to slash
put "file://" into myCD
put item 1 to -5 of the effective filename of this stack into myPath
put ...
