Re: another mac to Windows gotcha

[panagiotis merakos via use-livecode]

Hi Tim,

I am not sure if the DirectShow player (with is the API used by the LC
player on Windows) supports negative playrate:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd377591(v=vs.85).aspx

There is also a bug report about it:

Best,
Panos

Re: another mac to Windows gotcha

[Tim Selander via use-livecode]

Hi Peter,

Tried
if pkeyname is "j" then
set the playrate of player videoplayer to -1
start player videplayer
end if

Results in a pause in playback as long as I am holding ctrl-j, as 
soon as that's released, forward play resumes.


Thanks.

Tim

On the mac app, the card script 'listens' for controlkeydown, and if

Have just discovered controlkeydown is not available on windows. Is
there an equivalent? What would the windows guy and gals here use?

Tim,

Try both commands in order: set playRate, then start.

Re: another mac to Windows gotcha

[Tim Selander via use-livecode]

Hi Paul,

Using 9.0 dp11 community. After sending the post, I found in the 
dictionary that for windows, commandkeydown message. After 
changing my script from controlkeydown to commandkeydown, it 
worked. Sort of.


My next problem is that on the LC/osx I use:
  if pkeyname is "j" then set the playrate of player videoplayer 
to -1
  if pkeyname is "k" then set the playrate of player videoplayer 
to 0
  if pkeyname is "l" then set the playrate of player videoplayer 
to 1


to start, stop or reverse the player from the keyboard. This 
worked great in LC/osx, but is not working in win7/LC.


I changed the lines to
  if pkeyname is "k" then stop player videoplayer
  if pkeyname is "l" then start player videoplayer

and that works in win7/lc. But can't figure out how to send a 
play in reverse command from the keyboard yet.

another mac to Windows gotcha

[Tim Selander via use-livecode]

Hi,

Trying my first little LC app on Windows. I wrote an app on osx 
and am now trying to get it to work in a Win7 machine.


On the mac app, I use ctrl-J, ctrl-K, and ctrl-L to control the 
video player. JKL is pretty standard video player control in 
video editing software.


On the mac app, the card script 'listens' for controlkeydown, and 
if the other key is J K or L, sends the appropriate go, stop, 
reverse command to the player.


Have just discovered controlkeydown is not available on windows. 
Is there an equivalent? What would the windows guy and gals here use?


Thanks,
