[actionstep-core] NSMovieView and a couple of questions

[Ewan M. <mr...@mr...>]

Hello,

I've updated the NSMovieView.as

Looping playback works and the correct aspect ratio of the movie is  
maintained.
Could somebody check it and put it in the repository, thanks.

Using the code below

m_video = (new NSMovie()).initWithContentsOfURL("../../../video/ 
0-1-3-360_TheGame.flv");
m_videoView = new NSMovieView();
m_videoView.initWithFrame(frame);
m_videoView.showControllerAdjustingSize(false,true);
m_videoView.gotoBeginning(this);
m_videoView.setMovie(m_video);
m_videoView.start();

I expected the movie to start playing. It doesn't because the  
NSMovie.netStreamHanleStatus function pauses the video the first time  
it is called. Is this the desired behaviour? If it is what is the  
suggested way to start a movie with no controller (some sort of  
notification?).

Also when the video is first loaded it is full of 'decompression'  
artifacts (see game0.jpg). They are not in the video file. When I  
play back the video using the code I originally wrote for this  
program before porting it to actionstep no such degradation of the  
video was apparent and when the video loops it is no longer there  
after the first loop (see game1.jpg). Does anybody have any idea what  
could be causing this?



Cheers,

Ewan
