App

Stand alone missing media on different computer

Hello,

I have been making some apps that I can use in multi computer installations. They need to be simple, real simple - playback control, video selection, syphon port selection, opacity interaction.

I am having difficulties when sending this to another computer. For instance, I'll have a video I want to play in the comp. After embedding it in Xcode as usual and testing on the 1st machine - it fails to load the video on the 2nd.

Similarly, the app will not play on the 2nd machine if the correct plugins are not also transferred over - such as syphon.

How can I ensure that the app will play? If you must drag over the media and plugins for every app that would be illogical. What is the appropriate way to transform a Quartz Comp into a "Truly Stand Alone App"?

Toggle Fullscreen with Quartz Builder

With some experimentation with QB settings and QB Template parameters I was able to make an app switch to fullscreen mode and back. Running SL only, can someone please try this with Lion.

The ZIP contains the patch and App. Hit command + I to show the HUD panel.

cheers, volker
