*************************************************************************** *******************************READ ME************************************* *************************************************************************** This is the latest (and hopefully greatest) version of the DV Plug-in. It is NOT a released version, and is therefore NOT supported. (We are interested in any problems you have with it, of course). The problems it fixes are described below. In order to install it, either: 1) untar the file (Sun, OS9) 2) unzip the file (PC) 3) Double-click the .sea file (Mac) This will create a directory(folder) called DV053196. Inside of this directory are all the pieces of the new plugin. To install them: Mac/PC authoring board systems: 1) Copy the DV053196 directory to your MediaMogul directory. 2) Assuming your CDIMAGES directory is within your script2disc directory, set your /dd directory to the script2disc directory (using the Set MediaMogul Directory menu option in CDi Playback). 3) At the "$" prompt in CDi Playback, type the following lines: chd /h0/DV053196 attr install -peeprrpww install Sun/OS9 Systems: 1) Copy the DV053196 directory to your MediaMogul hard drive. 2) Type: chd /h0/DV053196 attr install_os9 -peeprrpww install_os9 3) Copy cdi_dv in the DV053196/CDIMAGES directory to the CDIMAGES directory on your script2disc directory or drive. 4) First, change directory to your script2disc CDIMAGES directory. Then: OS9 users should type: attr cdi_dv -peepwwprr Sun users should type: chmod 777 cdi_dv Changes since DV Plug-in 2.2.1 Release ------------------------------------------------- FIXED o The latest engine-player combination is not working at all!! 01/23/97 -- aa The library files were out of sync with the play plug-in. -aa -------------------------------------------------- FIXED: o If the first play is in STILL mode, centering is not carried out. 12-26-95 -- aa -------------------------------------------------- OPEN o If DVPro is in STILL, a $DV_CONTINUE restarts video but does not start audio. A $DV_NORMAL restarts both video and audio. 02/16/96 -ach ------------------------------------------------- FIXED o When scanned past the end of the file, dvpro was going to play mode and playing the chunk between the last entry point and the end of the file. 02/20/96 -- aa ------------------------------------------------- FIXED o Sequential DV plays show black between clips if no INTIME is specified. If the user starts play from an entry point, no black is displayed. However, DV had a problem where if start time was 00:00.., no checks were done to see if 00:00.. is an entry point. This fix, makes sure that if EPD is loaded, and if 00 is an entry point, the screen is not blanked. 03/07/96 -- aa ------------------------------------------------- FIXED o When run in TEST mode, with no DV card present, the dvpro module and the dvplay module miscomunicated. The result was that an error of 168 was returned by dvplay. This indicated, falsely, that dvpro was not running. A side effect of this problem was some memory trashing. This problem has now been fixed. 05-30-96-aa
