VideoScape 3d
1 messages in this thread
Has anyone successfully written a frame controller driver that opens the
"frame-control" and "frame-reply" ports that VideoScape 3d requires to
communicate with that software? I have been trying and trying for several
months now to write a driver for the frame controller hardware I built and
VideoScape 3d keeps going to sleep after my driver sends the ReplyMsg down
the reply port – an input event occuring in the VideoScape window causes it
to "wake up" again, but that's not very autonomous, as it is supposed to
be.
What could I be doing wrong? I've written a test program that sends
messages to these ports to test the frame driver, and it works fine there.
Is there something funny about the way VS3d handles it's msgports in v.
1.0? In any case, does anyone have assembly or C source that opens up
these two ports, and successfully communicates with VS3d? Maybe printing a
message "Got a msg!" when it gets a message and "Sent a reply!" when it
sends a reply with VideoScape. If not, how about source for just two
programs that can communicate with each other so I can check to make sure I
am doing this right. Help!!!
