Re: Player Duration to hh:mm:ss
From: "Eric Chatonet" Hi Jerry, Tutorials Picker has been tested and optimised for Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, Win 2000 and XP but not for Linux. I would be glad if you could give me some details in order to make it functional on Linux. Thanks Note to the List -- Eric just sent me an updated version of Tutorials Picker that plays as-designed on Linux. It looks great! A simply marvelous tool!

Re: Player Duration to hh:mm:ss
Although Bill Marriott's function works fine, it struck me as being somewhat inelegant, not to mention longer than necessary. Here's my version of the function in question; for you newbies, my code makes use of the numberFormat property, and the div (integer division) and mod (the remainder of an integer division) functions. function Sec2HMS TheTime # TheTime is measured in seconds # Automagically take care of leading zeroes as needed set the numberFormat to "00" # How many hours is that? put TheTime div 3600 into TheHours put TheTime mod 3600 into TheTime # How many minutes? put TheTime div 60 into TheMinutes # How many seconds? put TheTime mod 60 into TheSeconds # We got yer result right here... return TheHours & ":" & TheMinutes & ":" & TheSeconds end Sec2HMS ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: Player Duration to hh:mm:ss
Hi Garrett, It's ok -- the example was a "subtle" indication. It really comes down to whether you salt something while cooking or leave it to guests to salt to taste, doesn't it? > Ah. Ok, and now you've peaked my curiosity here. How would > I handle fractional seconds, or convert fractional seconds into > milliseconds? Fractions are just passed through directly. Try this: ConvertSeconds(the round of XXX) ConvertSeconds(trunc(XXX)) makes sure seconds is always a whole number. One rounds off, the other drops the fractional part. ConvertSeconds(round(XXX,1)) Rounds to tenths of a second (but doesn't provide fixed digits in the result; even seconds will not show the decimal point or fractional part). A millisecond is one thousandth of a second, i.e. three digits after the period. In this case, you would indeed modify the function, to ensure a fixed number of digits after the decimal. You'd pad out with zeros and then take the first N digits you wanted. You could even add a parameter to the function to dynamically specify how many digits are required. > This is something I was going to ask soon anyway.

Re: Player Duration to hh:mm:ss
Seems it needs to be run from the Rev/DreamCard IDE. I initially ran it from the ScriptRunner program, which it stuck at the loading screen and the button needed stayed inactive. Ran it from the DreamCard Player and it said it couldn't find an internet connection. But running it from the IDE works without problems. :-) Thanks, -Garrett On Dec 19, 2005, at 10:59 AM, Eric Chatonet wrote: Hi Garret, NO! :-) It's not a trap!

Re: Player Duration to hh:mm:ss
Hi Garret, The "How to Monitor a QuickTime Player by Script" tutorial might help you: This stack shows you how to monitor a QT player to play music (mp3 included) and provide all the usual commands, and more, to the user. How to know if the right version of QT is installed, manage durations, progress, quick searches, sound level, loops, play-lists, etc. The main commands are embedded in a scripted group, which you can export into any project. This scripted group is able to monitor, not only sound files, but also the video files as well. You will find the function you need in it :-) You will access this tutorial through "Tutorials Picker" a free plugin that interfaces with the So Smart Software website in order to display all available tutorials stacks directly from the web. You will find it by going to http://www.sosmartsoftware.com/. Revolution/Plugins or Tutorials section.
