For clarification for any one following this thread: The above combinations work. I had an error in my code that had the original tests fail. Using LC704, file references for media that include Unicode in the name and/or path, work on OSX10.6 and 10.7 using Quicktime, and 10.8 and up using AVFoundation. In LC704 under OSX, you can just: answer file "Pick a media file:" set the filename of player x to it Strangely, Unicode file references do not work under Windows UNLESS you set the fileName of player x to ShortFilePath(tFileSpec). Example: answer file "Pick a media file:" set the filename of player x to it fails with an invalid movie reference error but: answer file "Pick a media file:" set the filename of player x to ShortFilePath(it) works on Windows XP through 8.1. This seems like a bug that you can not use the full Unicode file reference on Windows, but it has an easy work-around with the ShortFilePath function. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
