• Windows Forms Calling a Dialog Button Control

  I have a dialog box that has an OK and Cancel button. The OK button returns an OK dialogresult to the calling program. I want the Doubleclick on the datagrid to send the same result the OK button. How can I call have the Doubleclick event do this I would like to use the same code as the OK Clicked event if possible. Thanks Hi, I guess in this case it might be best to invoke OK button's Click event by calling it's PerformClick() method [e.g. okButton.PerformClick();] from your DG's DoubleClick event.

• Audio and Video Development Tools and Resources for Authors

  I'm a professional web developer interested in iHD/DVD authoring. At this point it is pretty difficult to get going due to lack of tools and resources and documentation. I am proficient in xml and javascript, but this is a slightly different bird for sure. What I am trying to figure out is - are the lack of resources a symptom of being early to the process, or is it a symptom of the content authoring industry (proprietary thinking) Please use HDDVD Validator on this sample ; you are likely to find plenty of errors and lots of warning.Also it seems HDDVD Validator does not recognises .xts extension file.So for that try pasting Jump.xts code in the file where Jump.xts is being included that is in T1.xmu.

• Audio and Video Development Production Method for Released HD-DVDs

  I'm curious, have all the currently released HD-DVDs been produced using SACA (Sonic) If not then what are the other tools That depends on your encoding tools... some are better than others, and it has nothing to do with how efficient the codec itself is. Remember, pretty much every released HD DVD title is in VC-1, and for good reason. VC-1 is not only easier to encode , it is also easier to decode , so will work better on lower-end PCs. ...Show All
