Re: QTVR (was : Hello + question)
Richard Gaskin : MetaCard's support of QuickTime does include QTVR. It's a great implementation too: you can control the pan, tilt, and other QTVR. Thanks for the tip. That's pretty good news, although I didn't find any info on that matter in the MC help stacks (I've downloaded the 2.3.1 for Mac)... For instance, the Player object properties doesn't mention any property associated with pan or tilt of a QTVR movie... I will run some experiments with a player and QTVR files, but where can I find complete doc about QT implementation in MC ? Thanks.

Re: getting socket identification numbers

I have looked into this again and have found that: put peerAddress(s) into field "whatever" will also get the other person's ip number. This is much cleaner than the other way I just posted. The key for us newbies is to understand that the "s" variable is the part that we miss. You must use the variable that you chose at the beginning of the handler that does the reading. For example, I used this: on openCard put field "port" into iPort accept connections on port iPort with message "newconnect" end openCard on newconnect s --FIGURE OUT THE LENGTH OF THE MESSAGE read from socket s for 1 line put it into tLength --NOW READ FOR THE SPECIFIED LENGTH OF THE MESSAGE read from socket s for tLength put peerAddress(s) ... ... end newconnect -Mark Talluto Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/metacard@lists.runrev.com/ Info: http://www.xworlds.com/metacard/mailinglist.htm Please send bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED], not this list.

I investigated hostAddress and peerAddress but ran into a puzzle -- can anyone explain it? I have just implemented that feature. This is what I did. --FIGURE SENDERS IP ADDRESS set the itemdel to "|" put item 1 of s " " into field "whatever" The s variable contains the other person's ip information. This should be placed somewhere after the read command. I think it must be in the same handler as the read command though. Hope this helps some. -Mark Talluto I'm chatting on my Win98 machine between two stacks with different addresses, 208.193.15.192 given to me by the ISP, and 127.0.0.1, the loopback address. In each stack I have a button with this script: on mouseUp put fld "sendIPfld" into vIP put fld "sendSocketFld" into vSocket put vIP":"vSocket into tDest open socket tDest put hostAddress(tDest)returnpeerAddress(tDest) into fld resultFld close socket tDest end mouseUp From each stack I get the same result -- the hostAddress and the peerAddress are the same, and that address is for the stack that I am connecting to, not the address for the stack with the button. Shouldn't they be different? I'm using two different port numbers -- one to go from the 208.193.15.192 address to the 127.0.0.1 address, and one to go back the other way. But I don't see how that could make any difference. Any help would be much appreciated.

If you could, then you could copy password protected objects into a non-password protected stack and thus access the scripts.

Re: traffic watcher linux
andu a écrit : For whoever is interested I just found a Linux app (called "aps") for watching/debugging sockets traffic. Easier to handle then tcpdump and with an ASCII ouput as an option.

The stack had the Win32 engine moved into it then saved then zipped to fit on a floppy. On unzipping the file in Windows an error occurs: "An error occured while saving file. The CRC values do not match." Anyone have any idea what this means and how to avoid it in future attempts? Thanks. What program are you using to zip the program on the Mac? The latest version of Stuffit produces good .zip files, but I have found some other (old) Mac zip utilities to produce files that you can't open all the time. The other possibility is that the disk has had an error - try another disk? Hi Kevin, I used ZipIt 1.4 on the Mac, saving the file to a PC diskette. When I get time I'll try Stuffit 6.0 on a new attempt at standalone stacks. It looks like Mac created stacks sent through the net open fine on diverse Windows machines. I'm encouraged. :) We want to see how the process works in reverse yet. -- Regards, Dale Pond Delta Spectrum Research http://www.SVPvril.com Sympathetic Vibratory Physics Sacred Science - Sacred Life SVP Discussion Forum: http://www.egroups.com/list/svpvril/ Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/metacard@lists.runrev.com/ Info: http://www.xworlds.com/metacard/mailinglist.htm Please send bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED], not this list.
