Hi,
MovieExporter.doUserDialog requires a Movie object. Is there a way to run
doUserDialog without opening a Movie file? That is, can I create a Movie
object suitable for doUserDialog without opening a Movie file?
Why?
I'm saving custom MovieExporter settings to files, so that users won't
need to understand settings. The users are ethnographers who need to
convert video into different formats for study, but who themselves aren't
neccessarily savvy about video settings. I've written a little converter
program for the users, which prompts them to choose from a list of settings
files. (By the way, thanks all for your help understanding settings.)
I've written a little program to allow me to read in a settings file,
modify the settings for a user, and save them out again. doUserDialog
requires a Movie object, which isn't a problem, but seems unneccessary,
since I'm not exporting a Movie, but just modifying settings.
I tried creating an empty Movie
Movie movie = new Movie(StdQTConstants.kQTFileTypeMovie)
ac = AtomContainer.fromQTHandle(new QTHandle(inbuf))
exporter.setExportSettingsFromAtomContainer(ac)
exporter.doUserDialog(movie, null, 0, movie.getDuration()
which almost works. doUserDialog opens and I can see the settings,
but they are greyed and I can't change them.
I feel as if I should be able to create a dummy Movie in memory only,
which will work with doUserDialog, but I'm missing something.
Thanks,
Ron Stanonik
