RE: lingo-l nt

2001-07-13 Thread Chris Aernoudt

Indeed, what Al says is very correct.
I wrote one yesterday, and it works fine on both platforms.

You must have overlooked something, like putting the Xtras on the same
level, or maybe you've put the mac xtra's on the PC side???

You should double-check the whole thing, it works for sure.
I use toast deluxe 4.2, and I never had problems, except for having to write
the CD again because I had forgotten a file here or there.

It's been a while since I've built a XPlat CD, but from what I
remember this is not correct. each projector needs to be in its own
platform specific partition with its Xtras. the data and movies may be
shared however.

That's the elegant way of doing it, Al.  But you don't have to (and I don't know
that recommending it to people having problems enough already is a good thing:).

You can just have one setup with the PCProjector.exe and MacProjector sitting in
the same place, sharing the same Xtras folder with all the Xtras for both
platforms in the same Xtras folder.

I'd suggest maybe trying that out and making sure that that is working before
you start having separate PC and Mac resources (Xtras folder, Projector) and
else shared (*.dxr *.cxt files on the mac parition but shared to the PC side (if
you're talking Toast)).

actually no, you use the xtras on each platform partition that are

Re: lingo-l NT Sounds

2001-05-24 Thread Bruce Epstein - Zeus Productions


Is it possible to play multiple sounds (i.e. soundChannel(1) 
soundChannel(2)) simultaneously on Windows NT?

Generally, yes.

Also, on NT, is it possible to play a sound on channel (2) while a
Quicktime is playing?

Director 7 (PC obviously).

You can easily play normal sounds at the same time as each other in
NT. To play normal sounds and QuickTime sounds at the same time, you
need to set the sounddevice to qt3mix.

Most versions of NT don't truly support DirectSound which allowed
multisource mixing. I think some later service packs supported true
DirectSound, but earlier versions of NT simply mixed from one source. Thus
Colin's admonition to use QT3Mix to mix audio from Director and QuickTime
simultaneously.

Complete details on Windows soudn mixing can be found in Chapter 15 of
Director in a Nutshell, free online at:

http://www.zeusprod.com/nutshell/downloads

NOTE: You should upgrade to D7.0.2 in almost all cases, including yours.
The DirectSound mixer wasn't introduced until D7.0.2

Conrad,

From an earlier post, it looks like things were fine on the Mac but not 
on NT. Once way I've encountered this is with access privileges on NT. 
For instance, trying to play a puppetsound can crash if there's nowhere 
for Director to write out a temp cache file. The projector also tries to 
write out some .dlls into the system folder, which can 'cause grief if 
this fails.

I'm not an NT expert, just working from some info from others, and from 
empirical data (projector that crashed when logged in as a student, 
worked fine as an administrator). Others may wish to qualify these 
statements.

BTW, you may want to use slightly a descriptive subjective than 'Does

Re: lingo-l NT projector question

2000-10-31 Thread Rich Mayer

 Can someone let me know if there are there any specific know
 problems/solutions when a projector created on Win98 and needs to run on
NT

based on my limited experience, there's nothing particular to the
projektor-creation you need to be aware of... But there are certainly many
other issues to be aware of, especially when it concerns venturing into the
territory of  "multimedia".

For example, audio and video is a very dodgy area. I've heard many reports
of problems with DirectSound on NT - better to use MacroMix or QT.

Also bear in mind that typical NT machines will already be a few years
old... many problems which arise when testing on NT (even moreso true of 95)
are not OS related, but performance related.

Be prepared for at least a couple of hitches when testing for the first time
on NT.

I agree with Rich regarding NT - and I myself develop using Director under

result of the machines being older as I use NT because 95/98 don't support
dual processors properly.

So far as sound and video are concerned - I would definitaly recommend using
QT3 and the QT3Mix sound device. It is lower latency than MacroMix and it
supports more channels of audio better - plus making sure they have QT3+ on
their machine means that video playback is guaranteed. The latest and
greatest DirectSound sound device can - as far as I am aware - not be used
under NT as it requires a newer version of DirectX to be installed than
Microsoft have chosen to support - It is a nightmare really but careful use
of sound etc. can work well - have you considered the Beatnik Xtra for audio
playback? www.beatnik.com

Otherwise NT is (almost) the same as 98 in terms of Director projects...
