Spumux question

[Lawrence D'Oliveiro-2]

You know how in the “spu” tag in a spumux XML control file, you can
specify “image="..."”, “highlight="..."” and “select="..."” tags? I’m
curious to know, has anyone successfully created a menu using the
“image=” tag?

I ask because I’ve been staring at the relevant part of the source code
for days, and I just can’t see how it could possibly work correctly.

I always presumed that was for subtitles only.

Nevertheless, there is code, such as it is, in spumux for using it in
menu buttons.

I'm coming to the conclusion that that code doesn't make any sense at all.

Hello,

Here is an example :
<subpictures>
<stream>
<spu force="yes" start="00:00:00.00" image="picN0000.png"
select="picS0000.png" highlight="picH0000.png" transparent="000000" >
<button name="1" x0="86" y0="244" x1="246" y1="290" />
</spu>
</stream>
</subpictures>

The 3 png files represent the "button" in his 3 differents states
(normal, highlighted, selected).
You spumux your "menu" movie with this xml file and you get a menu with
a button.
For more details, try the dvdmenu tool. ( http://dvdtools.sourceforge.net/ )

savi.

Are you sure you've got that to work? Are you able to supply sample PNG
files to demonstrate?

My QMake (version 2.01a) reports the following errors:

     uic: File generated with too old version of Qt Designer
     uic: File generated with too old version of Qt Designer
     uic: File generated with too old version of Qt Designer

Yes, I'm sure. I use it a lot. I join the 3 png files that represent a
button.

You're probably trying to compile it with Qt4. The Qt4 release of

dvdmenu is not ready yet. You can browse the dvdmenu-qt4 directory of
the cvs tree if you want to try it (it kind of works). The other
solution is to compile it with qt3. I suppose that qt3 is still
installed on most linux boxes. On my gentoo here are the commands I use
to compile :
$ cd dvdtools/dvdmenu
$ export QTDIR=/usr/qt/3
$ /usr/qt/3/bin/qmake dvdmenu.pro
$ make
$ ./dvdmenu

As stated is the homepage of dvdtools, the temporary files generated by
dvdmenu are not removed, so you will be able to examine them.

Sincerely,
savi.
