Yes thank you Mark, of course I would start with the most basic of outputs..I suspect the major benefit of undertaking this is to learn the FFI functionality. If you think this would be a struggle.. It may just be out of range for me personally. I keep on bumping up against this codec

Hi Mark, Thanks for the heads up I have the document package sitting on the shelf next to me. I'm looking into OpenH264 and its implementations with media players. I kind of assumed that VLC already includes it or that someone is at least made builds that include it. I haven't gone too

I think it is going to take some math but the scroller should be set for the area within the card rect since the areas left/right are not going to be responsive to the scroller. Thanks, Brian On May 29, 2019, 2:01 PM -0500, J. Landman Gay via use-livecode , wrote: > Thanks Monte, I did

Jerry, First of all... The armv7 will work on all architectures. The Intels have an arm emulator that in my tests are about 7-10 times slower than a native Intel build. Arm 64 will only work on 64 bit arm architectures. Intel will work on all Intel architectures and Intel 64 will work on only 64

Wow, what a difference does it make. I saw that the setting was container again so i let it that way. Turned off the nice border glow around the grid, turned border off and set it to zero (the latter won't make difference i guess.) This is how it should be. Thanks for pointing me to it

Thanks Monte, I did over-summarize. I'm not sure why it's going wrong, but it sounds like it's something I'm doing. I have a standard "createScroller" handler that I've been using for years, but I've never had to set the hScroll before. It's always been zero. In this case, I set the hScroll

Strange is, when i opened the stack in 950dp1 and looked at the setting to set static, dynamic, scrolling. Container was selected, but when you click on it you can only choose from the 3 previous mentioned and not container anymore. Unadorned (had to translate it first...) so no nice edge
