Welcome mate!

@danwood_uk

Cool!!!!
...and welcome!

@TheDaddy

I've exactly the same problem here, I've sent an e-mail to ACube yesterday to have infos about taking the VGA signal directly from the header.
But since I'm quiet a noob on this hw things I've asked if they sell some kind of adapters to plug in the header.

@nubechecorre
Good idea, it would be very interesting!!

Yep

I've solved disabling JIT for IBrowse, now seems stable, no more freezes at all

@PEB
Sorry mate, I've made an error copying & pasting the example, ofcourse the intention was to print the pressed key and not the message table.
:)

Instead of REM Hollywood uses ;
Here is a complete and very simple example:



I love these Hollywood event handlers

I'm developing ScuiLib, a huge library with Hollywood (around 12.000 lines) and I can say that the size of the executable isn't scaring at all, it's around 1,2M (OS4 version).
That's because Hollywood link to your executable a platform-specific player with your compiled code.

I don't have precise data but seems that when you compile your projects you have about 800/900K for the player and the rest for your code.

Sorry Ive posted before reading your wishes, this is the last one, I'll stop immediately further comments.

But my example is something quite different, I've make this example to show how structures can be done in LUA and Hollywood, another example can be:



during the code execution I can add another fields without worries, and I've to remember only the field name:


I can access members with something like this


so:
value = GetMemeber("name")
sets value with "Johnny"

Enum is something different used to declare constants numerics variables.

@Atheist

--- PLOT IN HOLLYWOOD ---
Plot(x, y, color)

That's the way Hollywood (and LUA) handle data, somithing similar to standard structures:

mytable = { 2, 3, "four" }

is the same as
mytable[0] = 2
mytable[1] = 3
mytable[2] = "four"

you can have non-numeric indexes to simulate structures:
mytable = { name = "Johnny", surname = "Mnemonic" }

so you can access them with:
mytable.name
mytable.surname

but this is not a LUA thread

@LiveForIt

... I can add the following examples

--- LUA ---
number = 5

--- Hollywood ---
number = 5

In Hollywood you can force <number> to be globally or locally declared with:

Global number = 5
or
Local number = 5



In these languages type have not to be declared, you can have:
number = 5 ; <--- numeric type
number = "five" ; <--- string type
number = { "one", "two", 3, 4, "five" } ; <--- table of mixed types

@Atheist

Sorry if "I'm pushing always the same key" but, why don't you try Hollywood, I'm sure that is what you're searching for.

I'm planning to write an isometric turn-based RPG with Hollywood, I've written down some ideas and when I've finished ScuiLib and some utilities I'm working on I'll start to port a 2d particle engine I've written some time ago in Blitz, then I will test Hollywood how can handle a basic isometric engine, if this is the case I'll start with Hollywood otherwise I will do the job in E.

I've played with E many years ago and IIRC it's much more simple and "natural" then C.

If you are interested we can join our forces in a such neverending task :)

Hollywood can be also compared to LUA for many concepts behind it like tables for example.

Lua has been my favourite language for years but when I've put my hand on Hollywood, well... :)

If you are looking for a simple to understand and very powerfull language you should find the time to install the ISO you've got.

I've no problems at all, I'm using a wireless Logitech keyboard.

@Tuxedo

Well, if you need it I will release a beta version with some preloaded profiles yuo can select with the drop down gadget.
Before that I want to include same basic preferences like:
- Clear FileList after encoding (Flag)
- Remove original Files after encoding (Flag)
- Overwrite existing files (Flag)
- Play sound when encoding has been completed (Flag)

I'd like to insert two more buttons to play/stop the selected file in the FileList.

Let's say next week I can release something
:)


@Wanderer
Yes, I know about the look of the gui but you should know that I'm using Hollywood to build this app and a Gui library developed by me named ScuiLib.
Hollywood doesn't have any sort of Gui and can't open any windows except the main program window.
So I was forced to develop a Gui library by myself, it's event driven and I've made a fake window system because I can't open system windows.
The gui is skinnable and right now I prefer to focus to the app development and ScuiLib testing then skin design :)

When I'll have time I'll try to make an OS4-like theme, but actually I've other priorities, first of all I've to complete the missing classes in ScuiLib.

Fonts are the same there are just two different sizes (11 and 9 if I remember right)
Why are you saying "randomly-made layout"? We can discuss about it, I'd like to have a simple front Gui with all of the options in the profiles editor, any suggestions? How can I improve the layout?

Regards,
Allanon

P.S.: if I change the font of the title bar of the fake window nothing will fall into pieces :P

@Tuxedo
sorry no AISS at the moment, but in the next version of ScuiLib will be support for images/icons in buttons and I hope to make a gui theme more OS4 like.

ETA is unknown, the program is actually missing:
- Encoding Profile editing
- Tons of lame options
- Preferences
- The encoding feedback you have requested ;)

@Tuxedo

I will try to catch the output of lame and convert in same sort of feedback in the encoding window :)

Hello, I'm working on a front end for Lame named Glame, do you like the design?

What you see is the AROS version, but when it will be finished an OS4 and a 68k versions will be released too

@drvolk

Hello and congrats for your SAM :)

I'm successfully using a Logitech wireless mouse/keyboard, but the wireless mouse was replaced by a wired one because i was tired of battery changes :)
The w/l keyboard work without problems, if I found a pair of batteries in my home I can try and let you know
