  • Thread-topic: Fix this script

Yes, if you comment it out and save it as an application and then drag videos onto it you get another error.  "This script contains uncompiled changes and cannot be run."  Doesn't say where the problem is though.  I think its the dimensions of the if statement. Commented those out and it loads the videos but its not right.  This whole part needs re-written.  I also changed it from "Quicktime Player" to "Quicktime Player 7".  I have QT7 Pro still.

I think this whole part is screwy, the commented parts are what I think is messed up in that script on http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20090515094704521:


set {x, y} to {0, 0}

set wins to (get every window)

repeat with win in wins

set doc to document of win

--set controller type of doc to none

set looping of doc to true

set {wi, hi} to natural dimensions of doc

--if wi / window_width > hi / window_height then

-- set dimensions of doc to {window_width, hi / (wi / window_width)}

--else

-- set dimensions of doc to {wi / (hi / window_height), window_height}

--end if

set x to x + 1

if x = cols then set {x, y} to {0, y + 1}

end repeat

Thanks,

Dan
