• Tommi Pitkälä Open a webpage in a Flyout?

  Hi I wonder if there any way to open a webpage in my Flyout ! I've something like this: Lol, Jonathan, you're everywhere. Code you've provided works very well, thank you very much for your help. Btw, if I click on some link on opened flyout, they will open a browser instead of using the same flyout. Can I force my gadget to open links in the same flyout Anyway thanks again This is really my lucky day. Do you want to publish it, if you dont I could for you. I think alot of people would love to see it ( I know at least 5 by myself :-). Thanky you very much. People who want to copy the code got add an " before System.Gadget.... i found it out by myself :-) <img id="imgSrc" onclick="System.Gadget.Fl ...Show All

• davidacoder Changes in Build 5456

  I just finished upgrading from 5381 to 5456. There seem to have been some changes in the API. Some events have dissapeared, some methods parameters have changed. Would it be possible to get more information on changes, bug fixes, etc. The documentation in the new Windows SDK seems acurate but the sample do not compile anymore. Will the samples be revised or are we going to get new ones Thanks! Marc I have the same problem with 5472... I think 5456 is the June CTP The samples got out of sync in that release, but they will be fixed either in the July CTP or RC1. I don't have a list of API changes handy, but the major change affecting the samples is that the following ev ...Show All

• Vaish Passing focus to a new button when another button is actioned.

  I have a situation where when I push a button a small div slides out with 3 buttons in it...right now the focus remains on the button pressed to reveal the div...I would like the focus to be passed to the top button in the new div when the opener is actioned...I tried a few things but none work the way I want. Thanx in advance! You need to use the select attribute along with the begin attribute to direct the animation at a different element: <cue begin="id('whataver')[state:actioned()]" select="id('the_other_button')" end="id('the_other_button')[state:focused()]"> <set state:focused="true" /> </cue> ...Show All

• Brucec Problem with 'content ID' while creating directory in 'persistent storage'.

  Hello Everybody.... In the java script for creating a directory (FileIO_createDirectory), do we have to specify the content id also If we don't specify, whether the directory will be created or some exception will be thrown I am giving two examples below, please tell in each case what will happen. 1. FileIO.createDirectory("file:///required/app1",callback_createDirectory); 2. FileIO.createDirectory("file:///required/11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111/app1",callback_createDirectory); The whole point of "Persistent Storage" is that it is persistent -- ie, it remains even when you eject the disc or turn off the player. The content remains in the folder until either the disc deletes it or the user ...Show All

• vansloopernooper No sound with Windows Vista

  I have a Dell Inspiron E1705. I just downloaded Vista Beta and love it. Except for hot having any sound. My speaker volume is up and not muted. All updates are complete. I did a driver update and it gave an up to date message. Any suggestions Thank you for your time, BD Thanks for a lot of good info, BUT: I have a Multicenter with MCE, Intel 915p, Realtek etc., and have now used the last days and nights trying to solve my missing sound WITHOUT any luck. I (clean) install Vista, and then install the (new) drivers according to the manufactors advice. First I install the new Intel chipset driver. Then I install the Realtek drivers. When I install XP, the sound comes on after this, but NOT in Vista. Actually Vista does not ...Show All

• Ken_Bussell Popup modal frame from web gadget

  Hi, I've tried to build a web gadget for Spaces. I'd like to implement a behaviour like when I click Customize while editing my spaces: it will popup, let's say a MODAL FRAME. And this frame can render a new URL inside it like another windows of the browser. And this should be cross-browser compatible! I have used iframe and make it invisible at the first time. If this is the right way, where should I append this iframe Is there anyway to do that Thanks, Bao Nguyen That's the main problem. If the pop-up only appears inside the gadget's area it will not help much. There's noway to pop it out of the gadget's area Unfortunately, there isn't a way to pop it up outside, the sandboxed gadgets Iframe. I've done pop- ...Show All

• Dave Britton - VERTIGO Downloading and searching a web page...

  Hey. I just got into Sidebar development and have a question. I've already got my gadget displaying nicely, but have run into problems making it functional. My Javascript is really rusty, so bear with me here. I'd like to be able to download a web page's source (HTML, generated HTML from a PHP page, whatever, not like the actual scripted source or anything, just what the end user sees) and then be able to sift through it for a certain element. Specifically, I'd like to download the index of http://www.charas-project.net and find the first link after the source: < span class = 'title' >Last 10 Forum Discussions</ span >< br >< hr > I can probably find the string handling functions to do the latter myself, but the d ...Show All

• markse Protected Content (PMP) and tee node

  Is it possible to play a protected media file in a topology using the tee node. I modified the ProtectedPlayback sample and I get MF_E_TOPO_UNSUPPORTED error after setting the topology. Thanks! Bug confirmed, unfortunately. Because of some implementation details inside the MF topology loader, it'll fail to obtain and insert the decrypter if the source node is immediately followed by a tee node. I'll make a note of the issue so that we can fix it. Meanwhile, as a workaround, you could so something like insert a dummy MFT between the source and the tee: Src --> DummyMFT --> Tee --> Whatever So long as this dummy MFT requires that its media type be MFMediaType_Audio (i.e. it rejects ...Show All

• so0ly Multiple .Map/.Evo files naming and folder limitations

  If I have my main movie as pevob01.map etc. residing in the Root, and have another video named background/pevob01.map etc. that is my background video. Should each video be named differently The validator never gave an error. Yeah I always keep them in HVDVD_TS its HVDVD_TS/pevob01.map etc. (90 min movie) and HVDVD_TS/background/pevob01.map etc. (30 second loop) But you dont think this is a problem for the player I will check into it more tomorow. I don't know how much the Validator does with MAPs etc. However if you put them in different directories then the VTI files get to be a bit of a challenge (as VTIs do not store any directory names). If your authoring tool permits this multi-directory creation, then I t ...Show All

• thomas_schmidt Determining 64-bit OS

  I have an app which reads from the registry to look for some registry keys written by a 32-bit app. When run on 64bit windows, the registry entries are under Wow6432Node. How do I determine if the user is running 64-bit windows. Thanks Dan Check the "PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE" environment variable. If it's not "x86" it's 64 bit. I think the valid values are "AMD64", "x64" and "IA64" (obviously not relevant to Vista) Though couldn't you install the 32-bit OS on any of those Dan I'm not really sure, but I guess you could check to see if the 32-bit Program Files folder exists ( c:\ ...Show All

• BBBXXX Correct Timer Code?

  I am having trouble getting the timer function to work. Everytime it is called on while in the player, it crashes the player. Is this formatted correctly var cbfnAudio = function() { //Animate Menu Code would be here myTitleTimer.enabled = false; }; var myTitleTimer = application.createTimer("00:00:01",1,cbfnAudio); myTitleTimer.enabled = true; There is a concept in HD DVD of "total volume condition" that basically means you need to balance the audio from the main, sub, and effect streams. You can't have all three of them playing at full volume all the time... the mixer only goes up to 10 :-) You will need to turn down the main / sub audio before playing effect audio. W ...Show All
