Hi Folks,
I'm using py-objc (and I hope that is not the source of my
difficulty, because I truly love it!). I'm having apparently
unpredictable (and I think possibly incorrect) behavior from a
QTMovieView. I have an app that listens for instructions on a TCP/IP
socket using a nice little XML protocol I cooked up. I have a custom
window class with no borders or controls (this is used to permit
projection in a classroom/theatre in a sort of pseudo 'full-screen'
mode). In the window I have a WebView and a QTMovieView which I
alternately hide/show depending on the instructions that come in over
TCP/IP. Sometimes the instructions ask to load an URL that is a web
page. Sometimes they are to load a movie (either from a web server,
or from the local filesystem). The weird thing is that sometimes the
movie won't show.. but the audio will play. Or the movie won't appear
to load at all. I signed up for notifications from the QTMovie
object, and I get what appear to be appropriate notifications. The
really strange thing is that if/when the movie doesn't play properly,
if the same instructions are sent a second time, it works. I guess
there's some setup or initialization that I need to do, or wait for,
or something. If anyone has any thoughts on how I might debug this
situation, or get more insight into what's happening, I'd appreciate it!
thanks,
-steve
