RE: Type 2 Tips (was errors)
Did you notice type in msg beep; answer hello! you can chain commands! whoa! it also works in scripts! cool! Xa -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Scott Raney Sent: Monday, March 24, 2003 18:18 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Type 2 errors My stack keeps quitting with a Type 2 error. I ran hard drive diagnostics, defragmented, and ran disk utilities. I reinstalled Metacard. The stack still quits with a Type 2 error. Can I assume the stack is corrupt? No: this basically never happens unless you also have a backup file (same name with a ~ as the last characer). And if so, is there any way to fix it without rebuilding it from scratch? That would be a pretty major undertaking. Most likely you just have a script bug that the engine isn't handling correctly, in which case running something like the following in the Message Box will allow you to open the stack: lock messages; go yourstack.mc Second most likely would be a problem with one or more of the images used in the stack. Try going directly to some other card (preferably one without any images), or, if the images are stored externally, moving the image files someplace where the engine can't find them might get you around this. Once you get the stack open, you should be able to figure out where the problem is. You should also try this with the 2.5 beta 6 engine to see if it works on the unmodified stack. If it still doesn't, please file a bug report when you figure out what the problem is: the engine should never crash like this unless you really do feed it bogus data (a corrupted image, etc.). Regards, Scott I do have backups, but truthfully, it's been acting quirky for awhile, and any backups would probably also be suspect at this point.

Re: playselection
Title: Re: playselection I'm completely stuck, hope someone can help me... Mac 9.2.2 using MetaCard 2.5B5: In an application I display video sequences with (the script is somewhat simplified): set loc of player visp to -160,-250 set the filename of player visp to /Signes/MetaCardMappe/IVANA-MC/xmf/alene5.mpg set currenttime of player visp to 2 set the starttime of player visp to 2 set the endtime of player visp to 9 set the playselection of player visp to true set loc of player visp to 410,126 start player visp This works beatifully with QuickTime 5, but with QT 6 just a little more than1 second of the video is displayed. I need to be able to set the endtime at any point in the video. Any suggestions? -- Well, since I have not received any replies, I would like to give the answers myself. I guess I did not supply you with enough data. First of all: the above works well on QT 6.0.2 as well, but the original data have to be converted in another way. Since my original data come from milliseconds (video stored on a laser disc), with QT 5.0.2 I had to convert them as follows: tFromNumber*600/1000 and tToNumber*600/1000. With QT 6.0.2 I have to convert the original milliseconds: tFromNumber*90 and tToNumber*90. Don't ask me why, but it works.

importing popup buttons contents from HC?
I am using Metacard 2.5 b6 - so far the accents and styled fields export just fine in windows! Good job! (I use a basilisk emulator for mac so I cannot test for mac compatability, and I don't have unix - sorry). On thing I did notice, which I do not think is unique to 2.5b6 (i.e. I don't think this is a bug) is that when I import a hypercard stack with popup buttons the contents of the buttons are not imported. This is not a problem to me but I thought I should mention it.
