HI everyone..
I'm back from holiday now.
Just to answer a few questions about pantson.theora.
1) For those who don't know what it does
It allows BlitzMax to play Theora format movies. GFX only, no sound. http://www.theora.org/. Theora is a royalty free format for commercial (unlike MPEG and DIVx)
To convert your movies see http://www.v2v.cc/~j/ffmpeg2theora/
2) I have not tested the module on MAC, but the module is virtually a copy of the MPEG module I wrote anf that worked on MAC. It will need compiling on MAC. Please use this thread to report any problems.
3) Audio Sync'ing is taken care of when playing external sounds. See examples.
4) Use EOT to check if its "End Of Theora".
PS I have ideas for pantson.theora v2.0 (still no sound though)
