Re: [swfmill] Building from source
Hi Thomas, Below is a copy of an email I sent to the list a few weeks ago, when I managed to compile swfmill from HEAD in OS X. Let me know if these instructions work for you. If they don't I could recompile in my machine and send you the binary. Cheers, JJ PS: the SVN repository changed recently, here's the new location: http://svn.swfmill.org/swfmill/ Hi everyone, I managed to compile Swfmill for Mac OS X! :D You need to install Fink (http://www.finkproject.org/) to get the necessary tools. Here are the steps I followed, it's possible that I had some necessary tools pre-installed in my machine from previous development, let me know if it doesn't work for you: # Get libtool fink install libtool14 # Not the default libtool, it doesn't work for this. # Make a directory mkdir swfmill cd swfmill # Get the source svn checkout http://swfmill.org/svn/trunk cd trunk # Configure ./autogen.sh # Build! make # Check that it worked ls -l src/swfmill You should have a nice ~4Mb file there. Things to look out for when running ./autogen.sh: configure.ac:10: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. This is pretty tricky because it doesn't show up as an error at the end of the run, it's a bit higher up. It means you don't have libtool installed properly. release-mac.sh doesn't work in my machine because it has hardcoded paths to dan's home directory in an extra linking step. However, that step doesn't seem necessary, I commented it out and the rest of the script run just fine (with the wget and scp lines commented out too). I copied the resulting tar to a clean machine and ran the tests and everything seems Ok. :D Please try to reproduce and let me know if you encounter any problems.

Re: [swfmill] Mp3 in swf-problem: No sound, no errors
Hi Jonas! Sorry for the late reply, I haven't been checking my mailing-lists email recently :) As Ralf said, MP3 support is really really basic. It only supports 44.1 kHz Stereo (simple not joint) MP3s If you try with an mono MP3 it will import it, but it will play at twice the speed. Could you send me your stereo test MP3? I'll try to see if there's something I can do. JJ On 4/25/07, Jonas Nyström [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Ralf!

Re: [swfmill] getting a sound asset in to work with mtasc fromswfmill -FOUND PROBLEM
Ok, I've fixed it. I tested it with 56, 64, 128, 192 and 256 kbps MP3s. I found another bug though. It seems joint stereo MP3s don't play at all. I have no idea of how this could be fixed (without converting it to normal stereo) so I'm leaving it as it is for now.

Re: [swfmill] additional basic tags
Dan, We are considering adding proper support for sound (importing sound from WAVs or MP3s) in swfmill, but I don't know how hard that would be or what I would need to implement. Could you guide me on this?

If I understood correctly, DefineSound and StartSound can only be used with sounds imported from another SWF.

Re: [swfmill] additional basic tags
Hi! I was looking into using sounds with SWFMill when I found this old email in the mailing list. Is there any new info on this? I really need proper support for sound. Thanks, JJ Thanks Dan. I'm not in a hurry, so I will look into it and see what I can do by myself, and let you know what happens.

Implementing these tags in a basic way (so as to be able to import SWFs containing them) is actually very easy. Look at the HACKING file, src/xsl/source.xsl, and especially DefineMorphShape, it should be very similar. Normally you would have a new prerelease within a minute, but i'm rather busy ATM and restructuring stuff in my build tree, and dont know enough subversion yet, blahblah. You can either do it yourself (a patch will be highly appreciated), or wait another few days :/ That applies only if basic import functionality for SWFs containing sound is all you want. If you want proper support for sound, i.e. importing from .wavs or .mp3s, that'll be a bit more to do, but of course also appreciated very much ;) (i could of course point you to where to start or whatever).
