    PyObjC, XCode 3, QTKit - accessing QT Timecode Track info

    Hi guys!

    I am having a bit of difficulty trying to get to a 'timecode' track in a QuickTime file using the QTKit framework in Mac OSX 10.5
    I am using XCode 3.

    I have a QTMovie object (set as self.movie) and I can get my python fingers into it a little.
    This is what I can get to so far
    Code:
    		allTracks = self.movie.tracksOfMediaType_("tmcd")
		if len(self.movie.tracks()) > 0:

      get filepath for FTP upload

      Hi Guys,

      Can anyone advise on how to get get a file's filepath via a form?

      I am working on using a form to allow a user to select a file, then the
      app uses FTP to transfer the file to the server.

      As part of ftp you must supply it the location/filepath of your file.

      I am using the form element 'file_field' - which does
      return a filepath - but not really!

      eg.,...

        RoR newbie - file/directory browser and mysql table questions

        Hi Guys,

        I am using ruby on rails trying to develop a basic cms/dam for our company.

        The work we do is post production for television commercials. Each tv commercial we do broken down into 'shots' (or edit), and each shot usually goes through multiple versions/iterations. And lastly each of these shots incorporates elements from 2d and 3d artists - each having multiple versions.

        What I want to do is find...

            how to create a ruby variable from a database column entry?

            Hi Guys,

            I am trying to get up to speed with Rails and enjoying it so far

            One thing I cant work out so far and has eaten up most of my day!:
            how to find an entry in a database and set it as a ruby variable?

            I want to find the 'title' an an id/entry in my mysql DB and then use ruby to create a directory on my machine with that title as the name

            Any ideas? I hope that makes some sense!...

              replied to web server based script to do OS things - CGI ?
              in Python
              i think I am making a bit more sense of it.

              I CAN run a os.listdir('/blahblah')

              But I CANNOT run a os.mkdir('/blahblah/test')

              I am guessing it is because I need to somehow 'login' to my machine via the webbrowser to have permissions to do this?

              I am totally clueless!

              Thanks for any help!

                Hey Guys

                We have recently got an Apple xserve running OSX 10.4.

                  That is really really cool!

                    Hey Guys,

                    I am discovering the awesomeness that is XML.

                    I use an application called Final Cut Pro for editing video. The app is able to export is projects as XML.

                    I am trying to develop a script to read that script and build a list of the files that are listed in the XML. The projects' imported files are enclosed in the 'pathurl' tag in the XML file.

                      it seems to have a good tutorial on running py scripts through a browser.

                      I wish there was a simple script to convert my wxpython scripts into browser compatible ones! no problems though!

                        Hey guys,

                        If I have created a GUI app using wxpython is it possible for it to work inside a web browser - over an intranet?

                        Or is there a proper way to do this?

                              Thanks for the tip. That will do most of what I want.

                              But is there also a way to stop the user who created the file in the directory from deleting the file?

                                  Can anyone give me a good place to start about learning to read xml files with Python?

                                  I have a bunch of XML files i'd like to go through and change some variables in.

                                  If there is a nice python GUI app to do this I'd be really interested in checking it out.

                                          I have had a bit of a hunt around on google to try find out how to change the overall default font style/size for a wx.python app - but not had any luck.

                                          Does anyone have any idea if it is possible?

                                          All I really want to do is make the wx.StaticText, wx.CheckBox, wx.TextCtrl & wx.Button fonts smaller in my GUI app

                                          Thanks if anyone can give me some pointers!
