The error message is horrible, and indeed my intention to reduce casts and the consequent problems with signed / unsigned types didn't really come off - it turned out that slightly older compilers baulked at all sorts of similar things. Partly it's a result of having to do seek(tell() - x), which isn't very nice, instead of seek(x, direction = ios_base::cur) using an offset. In this case it seems to be a reasonable failure for using the wrong type. That error should be fixed now, but I'm about to check the gst build on Etch to see if there are more errors. > There's also a logic bug in the same file, caught by the compiler: > > gst/MediaParserGst.cpp: In member function `bool > gnash::media::gst::MediaParserGst::probingConditionsMet(const > gnash::media::gst::SimpleTimer&)': > gst/MediaParserGst.cpp:259: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 > is always true > make[2]: *** [libgnashmedia_la-MediaParserGst.lo] Error 1 > This is from: > > getBytesLoaded() >= MIN_PROBE_SIZE > > where MIN_PROBE_SIZE is 0.
