Re: [blog] Quicktime Dependency Solved

[Alejandro Tejada]

Hi All,

How difficult could be to leverage 
audio (.ogg) and video (webM) 
playback from Chromium Embedded 
Framework (CEF) within LiveCode 8?

Using current LC8, How could we do this: 

1) play a webM video from script
and LC8 just create an instance of 
RevBrowserCEF and put in the card 
a browser of webM movie size 
(without any extra borders).

2) play an .ogg sound file from script
and LC8 create a new instance of
RevBrowserCEF and put in the card
a browser with an audio player control.

Re: the keys of the dragData?

[David Bovill]

Thanks everyone.

My mistake. the keys of the dragdata does actually work.

Interestingly the keys of (the dragdata) also works - but with different
results :)

Pus there was the cross-platform media player that was a stretch goal in
the original open source Kickstarter. While recent work was promised for
Windows only, there are people still looking for that deliverable which,
I know, will eventually be there.

As a developer who uses LiveCode for (among may reasons) the write once,
deploy everywhere model, I really would like to see more features that
are abstracted to work across all supported platforms.

I think LiveCode 9 should be the "robustness" release and just focus on
bugs, documentation, and extending features that should work everywhere
to working everywhere.

Ah.  Yes, there's quite a difference between creating an abstraction 
between per-platform implementations, and actually writing a specific 
platform's implementation to use with the abstraction... a difference of 
about 90% of the work, probably.


I suspect that if someone was to implement the abstract platform player 
class for Linux, they would probably want to use the gstreamer API.

Hi David,

The dragData isn't an array but a property. By putting the dragData into 
a variable, you convert it into an array and you'll be able to get the keys.

I think everyone on the team has made it clear that this work in 
response to Apple's deprecation of Quicktime or Windows would be 
specific to Windows.


But in all fairness, I can appreciate the longing to have video and 
audio playback restored on Linux.  This used to work many years ago, but 
it got progressively worse over the years and for the last few years 
hasn't been possible at all.


In broad terms this would be a regression, but the degradation occurred 
before the current definition of "regression" has been followed (and 
quite well, to be honest, in that things working in the last Stable 
build tend to get high priority if found not to be working in a newer DP 
or RC).


Hopefully with the audio recording funded there we'll also have the 
ability to play back what we record.


In the meantime, with the focus of the current work indeed on Windows, 
it may be helpful to review this thread describing some of the issues 
people have found on Windows (yes, I've asked them to submit bug 
reports, but relative newcomers are not yet accustomed to filing 
reports, and double-checking issues with other users in the forums can

Re: OT Livecode and Intego Virus Barrier

Not entirely related, but on some of our Win machines, every time I build a
new win executable with LC, Norton complains and blocks it.  I then have to
tell Norton on those machines that the the executable is, indeed
trustworthy.

The main purpose of the IDE log file is diagnosing problems with the IDE 
starting up. Unfortunately, this means that it can't be toggled by a 
preference because if the IDE is failing, you can't toggle the preference.


Because of this purpose, the way the file is written is very 
conservative - every time a line is logged, the file is opened, the line 
is appended and then the file is closed again. This ensures that in the 
event of an engine crash, the logging data is not lost.


One thing that is definitely worth considering is deleting the current 
contents of the file when the IDE starts up rather than preserving the 
content indefinitely.
