Does anyone have a quick fix for the AT53_video_Player plugin. It was never made BT4 compliant and the code fails where it cant find the old Skool #import "JSON.h" Seen the odd fix posted for this issue but those fixes dont seem to fix this plugin for me? ** code ** // // ATRAIN53 BuzzTouch Video Player plug-in // [email protected] // // Created by ATRAIN53 8/1/12 // Copyright (c) 2012 skompdev.

Hi Bonzo, To remove the deprecated dependancies and update for 4.0, do the following: --- Delete the JSON.h import (on line 43) Delete the old totecalc_appDelegate.h import reference (around line 48/49) Delete all lines that reference "*appDelegate". (Lines 255 & 374) --- Removing these references should bring the plugin up to 4.0 compiler compatibility and will remove the errors causing it to fail. Let me know if you hit more issues after it compiles- I haven't used this plugin before, so I don't have any sample data to test against.

Thank you.

Hello, The app freezes up on the simulator, and get this warning: << Thread 1: Exception: "MPMoviePlayerViewController is no longer available. Use AVPlayerViewController in AVKit." >> #import <UIKit/UIKit.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]){ //return manualdelcuatro_appDelegate as UIApplicationMain... @autoreleasepool{ int retVal = UIApplicationMain(argc, argv, @"UIApplication", @"manualdelcuatro_appDelegate"); return retVal; } } Thanks

Hi Blue! What version of Xcode are you using to compile your project? (I tested in Xcode 10.1). What is the minimum compilation target you're compiling for? (By default, Buzztouch projects compile for iOS 8.0 and up). When do you receive the error? Is it during build or at runtime (ie, screen load). Thanks!!

I am using 11.5. The error happens when I hit play on the app

Thanks! Here's a general example of how to upgrade the plugin to use AVPlayerViewController. In At53_video_player.h add these import statements: #import <AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h> #import <AVKit/AVKit.h> Then in At53_video_player.m replace the playVideoFromFileOrURL method with this code-block: //play video method -(void)playVideoFromFileOrURL:(NSURL*)theFilePathOrURL{ [BT_debugger showIt:self theMessage:@"playVideoFromFileOrURL"]; // Initialize the movie player view controller with a video URL string AVPlayer *player = [AVPlayer playerWithURL:theFilePathOrURL]; // create a player view controller AVPlayerViewController *controller = [[AVPlayerViewController alloc] init]; controller.player = player; [player play]; controller.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationOverFullScreen; [self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil]; } ---------------------------------------- I tested with a remote video file and the plugin will play it back in a full-screen view. Please note that this doesn't patch support for audio file playback in the plugin or add a fallback of "MPMoviePlayerViewController" for older iOS versions.

It works. Thank You So Much. :)

Not tested yet but glad others have it working. Can we change the core code on the server so this comes as part of the core download? Basically Buzztouch take ownership of the plugin? Seems an easy fix to have one more plugin available to all? Thanks

Hi Bonzo! I haven't used this plugin much to know the full extent of what it does... can you help me understand how you use it in your apps? I'd like to get the current plugins all up to date before adopting any new ones... but when the time comes for us to bring on any existing plugins I can reach out to the plugin author to make sure they're okay with us maintaining it. Perhaps for the time being we could release an updated version, and offer the current version as a download option in the plugin notes... hmm.

It's just a plug in that allows you to play a video in your app. And mp4 or URL

Hi, same sort of question as it's a JSON.h missing problem. The Checklist plugin, I've searched in the forums old and new and have tried the suggested deleting the #import statements etc but it's caused more errors and I'm stuck with what to do. Is there any chance that the checklist plugin will be updated to work with buzztouch 4? As a temporary work around I've made a checklist in html which works fine but I can't get local storage to work so it defeats the work around. Any help or glimmer of hope that the checklist plugin will work again will be very appreciated.

This seems to have stopped working all together now :( too many 'explicity marked deprecated' warnings can buzztouch get this one going again please cakebit?

ignore me. it only fails when trying tostream the default mp3. when i input an mp4 stored on device its OK
