Well, if you REALLY were KEEN:

Back then, "hobbyist" meant "enthusiast" - in spades!

Thanks for the compliment!! I had one of those kits only we called them ...

Yes I know that. But it's not ment to be used a a drivers navigation unit. The idea is to hopefully sell the unit to big companies like police, insurance and rescue services. Probably said too much already, but hey ;)

No worries - mum's the word! 8)

Sounds to me a "black box" for a car!! Which ...

The EPIA MK-II Mainboard has not enough power to run as a Home-Theatre System or MCE. I tried much but its not possible to record a movie and do some other things on the system. (Even if your TV card own's an MPEG-encoder chip)

The epia sp-13000 is capable of doing just that record AND ...

@NoahPhense,

I notice an error in your batch file (or is it on purpose?)

C:\pb\pb4\compliers\pbcompiler %1 /DEBUGGER

Ieh ?? "\compliers\" ? Should be "\compilers\"

Jan V.

Why do you need the buffer size, most of the time windows and/or linux are more than capable to handle the i/o the buffers are kept in memory so?

The MAC is the adress of your NETwork card inside your computer (or router) has nothing to do with your provider.

Which os you are using so you can obtain your MAC adres (differs form os to os like win xp or linux or ...)

What is not working?

NOT works really:



EnableExplicit

Define Mess.l, Line.s

OpenConsole()

mess.l = #False
; mess.l = #True
Line.s = " test bla : bla test"

If Not Mess.l
If FindString( Line.s, ":", 1)
PrintN( "!!" + Line.s + "!!<o><o>")
EndIf
EndIf

Input()

End


Uncomment and comment ...

As far as memory serves me (not tested) should there not follow a ':' after LPT1 to designateed it is a 'disk drive'??

Try this one: Jan V.

This is happening because when you use #PB_Any, a new image# is being generated but because it's a new and different image# from all existing image#'s, the old one is not getting freed.
I wonder if the same memory leak problem could potentially exist when using #PB_Any for gadgets etc? That is, is ...

Some of the memory you were not seeing used was actually most likely in swap so your computer wouldnt crash! In the old days your computer wouldn't have been running ;)

True, but I think this is memory 'claimed' by my program but NOT given back because it crashed.

Jan V. No, XP cleans very ...

You have four ways of programming in PB:

0) Extreme relaxed

1) Verry relaxed

2) Less relaxed

3) closed (uptight?)

I choose with intend for the ZERO as the first methode but that is because i never use that, only for very short temporary code to testing code.

Zero mode, you declare NO globals ...

AndyMk,

You have to test for #WM_MOVE in your message pump (being the PB or a callback). Than temporally stop the capture, after the #WM_MOVE stop you can capture again I believe there is a 'pause' constant to send to AviCap.

Oh and one tip make an image with somthing like 'No Video'To be placed ...

AndyK,

Yes that is because wincap is writing to the screen via your window this has to do with pointers, so move the window and wincap needs to update its internal wizardry that takes time!!.

And 15 frames is not enough? MSN does it with 10 max and most of the time with 'only'5 frames.
