Would like to announce a novel release of VideoOut Plugin:
VideoOut Plugin, based on QuickTime Video Output Components enables
RB programmers to output DV and DVCPRO video streams via the FireWire
port (also known as iLink or IEEE-1394) of your Macintosh and Windows
computers.
[fix]: added much needed documentation to the SwitchMovie method.
[new] MacOS X: added new bundle support when REALbasic is loading
this plugin.
[new]: added constants to VideoOut: eAudioRate48khz, eAudioRate44khz,
eAudioRate32khz, eAudioRateDefault and removed these from
VideoOut.property list.
SwitchMovie: A most needed method allowing switching movies you have
assigned to the VideoOut.movie property. Before version 2.0 you
required to cease the connection, and then you needed to call
commence. This was ok, but it resulted in flicker. With this method,
all of your settings are preserved, while under the hood we will find
out how many tracks the new movie contains, then for each track we
will find out if the new movie contains a sound media type and we
finally grab the media handler for those tracks.
Under the hood we will do a lot of things following the assignment of
a new movie to VideoOut and calling SwitchMovie:
** We first determine if the movie property of videoOut is not nil.
If so we throw an exception.
** We also throw an exception if there is no sound output
(me.HasDoundOutput = false), earlier established when Commence was
called.
** We throw an exception if the VideoOutComponent instance does not
exist, this would occur if you haven't called Commence, and did call
Cease. If we passed these steps we then proceed with switching the
movie.
