caution! some xtras don't like living in the same xtras folder (buddy api) the osx and classic versions can't exist in the same folder. i have bundled the problem xtras into the appropriate projectors. make sure you don't go all the way and then find this to be the case. -dr
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Ross Clutterbuck Sent: Friday, August 27, 2004 6:16 AM To: Lingo-L List Subject: <lingo-l> Hybrid disc Hi List Trust clients to say "we want this project to work on Mac and PC" and then look at you blankly when you mention OSX. Authoring for this hasn't been a problem really (there will be another post on the way though) but I need a few pointers on some finer details of a Hybrid disc. The project needs to run on Windows 98 and above, MacOS 8 & 9, and OSX. So we're looking at a Windows projector, a MacOS Classic projector and a MacOSX projector, right? Now, all three projects need to be on the same disc and the appropriate projector fires off for the particular OS running (I'm not too concerned with Mac autorun at the moment, but this will be coming soon). Now I freely admit that I'm pretty dumb when it comes to the Mac (bad me I know - circumstances have slowed me up) so what would be the best way of having 2 Mac projectors on the same "side" of the disc? Will the OSX projector be hidden from MacOS 8 & 9 (and vice versa) or will I have to name them "projectOS8n9" and "projectOSX"? Also, the project uses digital video quite a lot and although I think I can squeeze 3 seperate copies of the project onto a single disc (one for each projector) how easy would it be to optimise this like having a single set of videos common to all 3 projectors? Or maybe just the 2 Mac projectors sharing a common "media" folder?
