Publisher's description
From Ian's Hackings :The problem: The "Toast Video Player 1.0" app included with Roxio's Toast Titanium 8 has a bug in it which prevents the jump forward/jump backward and fast forward/rewind features from working properly. See the Roxio forums (http://forums.support.roxio.com/index.php?showtopic=17039) for a discussion of this problem.
The solution: A small AppleScript Studio (XCode) app that uses Apple's GUI Scripting (Enable Access for Assistive Devices in the Universal Access preference pane in System Preferences must be checked for this app to work) and Extra Suites 1.1 (http://www.kanzu.com/) to precisely click on the progress bar in the Toast Video Player remote control, which is the only reliable way to advance or reverse through a video in that app.
There are some limitations to this solution:
- This solution only solves the jump forward/jump backward problem--I don't see a way to solve the fast forward/rewind problem.
- Since the progress bar is only about 90 pixels long, this solution can only jump forward or backward about 1/90th of the video's length at a time.
Note (11/20/2007): Unfortunately, Roxio has not resolved this issue with the new Toast 8.0.3/Toast Video Player 1.0.2 release (http://www.roxio.com/enu/support/toast/software_updates.html).
