I ran a couple tests recently trying to get a player object to run video on Ubuntu. No go, even with an ogg file which plays fine in mPlayer.

What am I missing?


I do know that RunRev 2 for Linux, supposedly, levered either xanim or QT for Linux; but I never could
get them to behave themselves.

Just has a peep into the RunRev PDF where it mentions mplayer in a rather cursory fashion . . .

Oh well, here we go; I'll "give it a bash" .  .  .

So: I set up a stack "KINO.rev"

[ which you can download here: http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/richmond/STUFF/KINO.rev.zip ]

now this does NOT use a player object, it just uses a play command:

on mouseUp
   play videoClip "OINK.mov"
enf mouseUp

this works on a Mac with Quicktime "just like that" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Cooper
and presumably should do just the same on
Windows similarly equipped with Quicktime.

However, on my Ubuntu box, with mplayer installed NOTHING happens.
