From the limited amount of testing I am doing right now it seems
this is a quicktime issue rather that an RB issue but I though I
would run it by everyone.
It seems that if a movieplayer is loaded with a movie and then set to
nil my realbasic app will unexpectedly quit. This happens in all apps
built from 5.2.4 to RB2006r1. Many of these apps are the originals I
built years ago.
This used to work fine. Not sure what the issue is. Is this something
I should not be doing?
The following is sample code that illustrates the problem...
In a window place 2 pushbuttons named "Load" and "Nil" and a movie
player.
In the Load Pushbutton action event:
dim f as FolderItem
f=GetOpenFolderItem("any")
if f <> nil then
If f.Exists then
MoviePlayer1.Movie = f.OpenAsMovie
end if
end if
In the Nil Pushbutton action event:
MoviePlayer1.Movie = nil
You will also need to set up an "any" file type with ???? as creator
and type.
Loading a movie and then pressing Nil will crash my RB app here with
OS X 10.4.5 and Quicktime 7.0.4. Do other people see this issue?
This issue breaks quite a lot of code I have written. Does anyone
have a suggested workaround?
Thanks in advance,
