New Jumpstart Available

Microsoft has re-released the HD DVD Jumpstart package with a couple of small changes:

· The behaviour of style:opacity has been changed to match the latest spec clarification; opacity will not multiple from containers to their children except for the special case where opacity=0, at which point no children will show.

· The name of the executable has been updated to HDiSim, so any batch files or other tools you are using that normally call iHDSim will need to be updated.

Nothing else should have changed, no new features were added, etc. so no need to go looking for them :-)

Hi Peter,

I've noticed in the current version of HDiSim that not properly handling attributes in such cases:

In the markup file I have parent element without defined style:width and style:height. I'm animating plnCh1 by markup:

<g id="animSSPageIn">
<set style:display="auto"/>
<set style:opacity="1.0"/>
<animate style:y="1300px; 540px"/>
</g>

and then I'm animating randomly attributes x and y by script.

But HDiSim is creating clipping region around the plnCh1. It seems that don't handle the plnCh1 attributes, but the nested elements on.

It works fine on the Toshiba player.

<div id="plnCh1" class="ss1" style:x="184px" style:y="1300px" style:position="absolute" style:opacity="0" style:display="none">
<div id="plnChBalloon1" style:width="95px" style:height="195px" style:x="0px" style:y="0px" style:position="absolute" style:backgroundImage="url('ImageBalloonScene.png')"
state:enabled="true" style:contentHeight="scale-to-fit" style:contentWidth="scale-to-fit" style:opacity="inherit"/>
<button id="btnCh1" style:width="17px" style:height="29px" style:x="40px" style:y="40px" style:position="absolute" style:navUp="btnCh1" style:navDown="btnCh1" style:navLeft="btnCh1"
style:navRight="btnCh2" style:navLeftUp="btnCh1" style:navLeftDown="btnCh1" style:navRightUp="btnCh1" style:navRightDown="btnCh1" style:backgroundImage="url('Text1.png')"
state:enabled="true" style:contentHeight="scale-to-fit" style:contentWidth="scale-to-fit" style:opacity="inherit"/>
</div>

That markup should do nothing visible because it is positioned off-screen. You have y=1300px but the maximum is 1080.

Am I missing something
