bryanedds Managed COM object not unloading in Sidebar
So I created an ActiveX control in C#. Works great except for one problem, it doesn't unload when the gadget is closed. I thought it might be something in my gadget that was causing the problem, but I created a gadget that has nothing in it, and it doesn't unload either when the gadget is closed. I tried the same thing with an ATL C++ control, it unloaded fine when the gadget was closed. Any ideas, it's really a problem when installing a new version over an old version thats been run at some point in the sidebar's process time. Dan O'Connell No I do not, I will try thanks, thanks for the tip. I'll let you know how it turns out. Dan Did you implemen ...Show All
hanjg82 js file not Big Endian
I wrote some javascript to test out in the iHD simulator. When I try to play the content I get the error: "Script is not Big Endian" I haven't heard a reference to big endian storage since my mainframe days. Do I need to convert my javascript to big endian And if so how do I do that on an XP box Visual Studio will also do it when you Save As... and choose the drop-down arrow in the dialog to "Save with encoding..." It looks like Eclipse uses little endian, whereas textpad uses big endian (I think). Or at least I can write all my js in textpad and that works. Weird.

Namza Markup Performance
I wrote a complete menu (including scrolling chapter menu with rotating images) in pure markup. The XMU file has in total about 1500 lines. Unfortunately I notice that it runs quite slow on HDiSim and in Players. Are 1500 lines too much for xmu Meanwhile I found the reason for my markup being so slow. Wasn't the 1500 lines. It were just two little <style select="//button" ...> statements ;-) I fixed it and now it looks very fluent and nice. 1500 lines should be OK, some released titles have more than twice. Although, performance may vary depending on content. The markup performance can substantially improve ...Show All
S_Parikh About ShutdownObject() of IMFActivate.
I have made OriginalSink and implemented IMFActivate, I could create instance of mySink in the PMPProcess. When the PartialTopology was sent to PMPHost, ActivateObject() of mySink(IMFActivate) was called from PMPSession. And then I have two questions. 1. Although ActivateObject() of mySink was called from PMPSession, ShutdownObject() of mySink was not called from PMPSession . This is why 2. When PMPSession was called Shutdown(), Shutdown() of mySink was called synchronously. And mySink shut down myStreamSink. Is there any problem about that ShutdownObject() has never been called Hi Becky! Thank you for your answer! I ...Show All
anubisascends Gadget close/settings/move icons are incorrectly placed after Sidebar is reloaded
Just a minor observation, but one for the MS fix list: The three (or two if you have no settings) icons that appear when you hover over a Gadget are incorrectly placed for detached Gadgets after Sidebar is reloaded. They're shifted left 6 pixels. To reproduce this: 1. Add the Calendar Gadget 2. Detach it from the Sidebar 3. Exit Sidebar 4. Load Sidebar 5. Hover the mouse over the Calender Gadget You'll see the icons are in the wrong place. To correct them drag the Gadget slightly. thanks for the report! ...Show All

Romantic_touch Multiple Sub Audio Tracks
How can I change between different sub audio tracks I have 3 sub audio tracks with different audiocommentaries where I want to switch. In the spec I didn't find any possibility to choose the sub audio track where the mixing is done. The only thing I found is Player.audio.sub.setMixing(). But I can't figure out how to tell the player which track it should use. 4.3.19.4.3 says that sub-audio track number matches currentTrack of main audio, or is 1 if there is no match. This means that (eg) if tracks 1-4 of your main audio are EN, DE, FR, JPN then you can encode the sub audio commentaries in EN, DE, FR, and JPN and they will automatically match. Here's a theory (I haven't tried it or tested it...): If ...Show All
