RE: Sound recording beta bug?
Or even better create two folders in your MetaCard folder. Stable and Latest. Then just put the 2.4 engine and tools in the latest folder and move the 2.3.2 engine and tools into the stable folder. You can now use the same Home and Help stacks for different versions. You need to put the Mac 2.4 files in with your 2.3.2 files. They will replace the current files of the same name. So, be careful when doing this as you will delete your mctools stack as well as your engines from 2.3.2. Make backups if you need them later. This will make 2.4 work on your Mac with all the development tools of 2.3.2. -Mark Talluto On Monday, June 11, 2001, at 05:22 PM, Mark wrote: I am really wanting to test this all on a Macintosh too, but there does not seem to be a Macintosh beta version - only the engines are in the ftp.metacard.com :2.4 :macos.sit file for some reason, not the development environment (am I looking in the wrong place?).

I have been using Tuvias recordsound example stack to record sounds with several settings (including the default settings), but when I play back the sounds using the QuickTime Player or Windows Media Player (for the formats it can play), the sound is played back at what seems roughly half speed. Using the play c:\sample command to play back the recorded sound from within MetaCard is even worse - harsh squeels are emitted from the speaker. Has anyone else had this sort of behaviour from the beta, and can anyone suggest a work around? eg., an external equivalent with some example 'how to use this' code? (Macintosh or Windows). I am really wanting to test this all on a Macintosh too, but there does not seem to be a Macintosh beta version - only the engines are in the ftp.metacard.com :2.4 :macos.sit file for some reason, not the development environment (am I looking in the wrong place?). Don't know about recording sound but you can use the same development environment with the appropriate engine for all platforms. That is, if you have the home, tools and help stacks for windows transfer them over to the mac and use them. You might want to change type/creator to MST MICR.

I tried that but get an error: Warning: tools stack versiob (2.4B1) does not match engine version (2.3), and typing in record mysound in the message box returns no permission to send that, group: bad object type, go: error in background expression, and move: bad end point expression :-( Has anyone managed to get the recordsound stack or the record command to work on a Macintosh, and if so, would they be willing to share their experience? eg., it just worked or here are the 8 steps I needed to use :-) Has anyone managed to get the Windows side working correctly too? ie., without the play command making screeches instead of playing the sound back, and without Quicktime player/Windows media player playing the sounds back at half speed. That might tell me whether I should be playing with sound recording on another PC or not :-) Cheers, Mark Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/metacard@lists.runrev.com/ Info: http://www.xworlds.com/metacard/mailinglist.htm Please send bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED], not this list.

You have replaced the tools stack but not the engine.
