Gambas ONE

Ok - original question was why do some MP4 files play and some dont - they are both the same format right ? Wrong ! MP4 is a wrapper but what it wraps can be different. Most notably different codecs (coder/decoder) can be used to encode the data in the MP4 file and if your player hasn’t got access t...

Thanks for all this, but I fall at the first fence here : Most of my issues come from a weak understanding of how to load files on the Pi probably. I have tried typing "gst-play-1.0--help" to see if the command exists on the pi I have, and it doesn't understand this command. I have used th...

Thanks Bruce - I’m choosing the file from the media player properties whilst I find my feet rather than trying to change on the fly so it’s got to be a problem with the file format that is upsetting things - I assumed the codec used was part of gambus rather than something in the underlying pi. I’m ...

Regarding the Media Player : Very excited - such a simple but powerful tool with just afew commands, but all the right ones - well thought out. I have found that some MP4 files will run without an issue, but a couple i downloaded from the web which are closer to my application come up with the "...

Re : 2.. When I create a mediaview control programatically and put in the url for the video I see the black box with a play and stop button but pressing the play button produces an error in gambas "Cannot set status". if I try to programatically play using mediaview.play I get the same err...

Thanks Bruce, More Linux than Gambas probably. Once i had typed control H i could see that i had already saved the files, just couldn't see them. Strange that there is no indication whilst moving the files - unless it's just that quick there isn't time. I have tried to use "Save As" from G...

OK - This is going to sound like the easiest question, but I've got a long way writing a Gambas 3 App - it's getting to the point of being valuable so i decided it was time to back it up away from the PI I'm using. Maybe naively I just inserted a memory stick and tried to drag the project folder acr...

Thanks All - Bruce, I didn't know it was an option to approach the great man himself ! Just wait until I really get going !

Hi, Although the attached isnt a complicated example, I have been using tranparent imageboxes with no picture and the mousedown event to trigger to cover "buttons" which are part of the picture in the Form.picture property. This gives complete freedom in the design of the user interface, ...

I have been able to set up a serial port, set the baud rate etc, use send to output data, and verified on oscilloscope. All very simple in the end. I’m now looking to read a reply. With gb.net enabled I can see there is an event called read but examples of its use don’t seem to be event driven : '**...
