You can't do it w/Lingo - you need an Xtra.
I use DirectOS from updateStage (updateStage.com).

oops...sorry, of course you're right...DirectOS is
from directXtras.
The MUI Xtra (in my humble opinion) can be a bit difficult
for a new Lingo programmer. The RavWare MUI Maker utility
(if Al didn't mention it already) which *is* sold/distributed
by updateStage makes using the MUI Xtra a whole
grin now I know...I got hold of it myself.
Big help for novices like me.

I'd like your advice on a small design issue:

If you download the latest version of the updateStage Xtra there
is example code which provides everything you need for plotting the

BUT...I would LOVE a newer version of Tab's Lingo.
What a great reference and just generally enjoyable read.

I misspoke, of course...you *could* use OPEN to launch the projector...
but you would not be able to do error checking or have any further
control of the app. As usual, Slava got it right.

mmm...I beg to differ.
Quoting Director's help:
This is a very simple command for opening an application or
a document within an application. For more control, lookt at options
available in third-party Xtras.
The projector is an executable that has no host app. You will need
to use s DirectOs
Do it using a date...
set a date on which the projector will expire...retrieve
the system date and check that against your expiration date
at each launch.
or
retrieve the system date the first time your app is launched, store
it somewhere and check that against the system date at launch to see
This question has come across a few times in the last week or so.

Folks...
I'm also a huge Lingo/Director fan and am not elated about the idea of
eventually having to go to Flash/ActionScript. I do have
some other tools in my kit so with some luck I'll never be
out of a job.
But here's something I've used Lingo for that you may not have

Hi Oliver,
The CD Xtra provides control over playback
of MPEG...however, actual decoding is left up to a third party decoder -
either an embedded encoder (Zoran's SoftPEG)
which requires no installation by the end-user or a software or hardware
decoder already installed on the end-user's
Oliver,
BTW, any reason why you're working with MPEG-2? Not usually
advisable for anything outside of limited distribution type stuff
where you have control over the target machine config (like a kiosk, for
instance).
Sounded like flexibility was one of your main project requirements!?

you may want to check those costs before
going this route.

Magnus,
Audio Xtra from updateStage allows you to grab level from the mic input.
Beyond that, the latest version of Audio Xtra does away with the use of MCI
and adds a host of other very cool features for working w/audio.
