- Mail*Link® SMTP NavMovie Toolkit Patch
- Navigators,
-
- For those of you who haven't already encountered this problem, it turns out
- that if ApppleTalk isn't turned on before starting the Navigable Movie
- Toolkit, the stack will crash ungracefully. To prevent this, you should
- replace the getNodeList handler (in the Setup card script) with the handler
- included below. This handler will check if AppleTalk is turned on, and report
- an error if it isn't. This fix will be incorporated into the next version of
- the toolkit (if that ever happens...).
-
- It also turns out that if the video window is opened on a monitor that is
- different from the one driven by the video digitizer board, then the movie
- created may be corrupted (and the stack may crash). This also may happen if
- the window is very large, and extends outside the digitizer's screen rect. I
- have confirmed this problem on the RasterOps boards, and have gotten similar
- reports for the Digital Film board (thanks, Yarom). This problem is being
- looked at, but for now you should make sure that the video window is contained
- entirely within the bounds of the digiter's screen rect.
