So we developed our own timeline solution, Testimony Software, and wrote an authoring toolkit to make content creation simple and quick. You can see what we've been able to accomplish at http://www.acoh.com.au, with a paper decribing an implementation of Testimony Software at Project Jukebox of the University of Alaska Fairbanks available from http://www.acoh.com.au/OHA2007.pdf. Our latest project is a teachers guide at http://www.accteachersguide.com and this provides excerpts from the 1956 Alaska Constitution Convention recordings. We understand that our solution does not have as much flexibility as the SMIL spec but it suffices for our purposes and lets our clients focus on their content whilst we sort out the technology, a message getting much traction. I'm happy to answer any questions. bobj </pre> Dr Bob Jansen 2012-04-17T21:11:55 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.smil/1128 <pre>Hello everyone on the list, Hello Jose, SMIL/Timesheets will likely remain a W3C note. We as a group tried to get a dual-implementation path going so that we could move this to Rec before wrapping up this edition of the SYMM WG, but we wound up with only a collection of partial implementations. Practically speaking, I expect that there will be a number of implementations of Timesheets in the coming year, although not all will cover the entire specification. We have seen some interest from browser makers in providing richer timing support for media in implementations, but it is really not clear who this will pan out. On special-purpose devices, like TVs, the exploitation path is clearer. We at CWI are working with the Brazilian NCL community on set-top box integration of our languages. We are also working with others on pop-corn implementations that consider synchronization specifically. I hope that these efforts make themseleves to this list as they develop!

So would it be best practice to simply include the RDF in the metadata element and not declare the smil doctype, as in the examples? Is it necessary to do the additional work to extend the language profile to define RDF? Thanks- Michael Vandermillen </pre> Vandermillen, Michael 2011-10-26T15:42:24 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.smil/1125 <pre> In section 17.4.11 it says: "The content model of metadata is empty. Profiles that extend the SMIL 3.0 Language profile may define the RDF (Resource Description Framework) schema to be used in extending the content model of the metadata element. The Resource Description Framework is defined in the W3C RDF Recommendation [RDFsyntax]. Other XML-based metadata formats may also be included in a smiliar manner. Note that if any content is added to the metadata element, a DOCTYPE must not be declared in the document." Note the last sentence. </pre> Sjoerd Mullender 2011-10-21T15:15:00 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.smil/1124 <pre>Hi- The w3 SMIL 3.0 site gives examples of adding rdf content to the metadata tag: http://www.w3.org/TR/smil/smil-metadata.html#edef-metadata However, these examples do not validate with the DTD provided: SMIL30Language.dtd from http://www.w3.org/TR/smil/DTD.zip This DTD defines the metadata element as an empty element. Sorry if I'm missing something basic. Please let me know if I should be asking elsewhere.

It gives us confidence that the proposed change will bring the specification into line with implementations (and common sense, since I believe the implementations are doing what is most intuitive in this case). I think the keyTimes issue is a bug (and that Cameron's test is correct) since I believe SMIL does say that keyTimes apply to to-animation as well[1] but I'm not fussed whether the proposed keyTimes wording ends up in the spec or not.

If you want something more elaborate, a smilFile that has a bottom bar that opens up a panel showing the contents of the presentation for easy navigation check out 'Enuma Elish'. Do you want to pick the background music or text in a presentation, the bottom bar opens up those options. 'SF 1905'. These are presentations that last a few minutes to help get the ball rolling.

FTP relies on having an FTP daemon set up on whatever machine is the host machine that you're pushing files to. FTP itself is notoriously insecure. SFTP (FTP over SSH) is an unrelated implementation with a similar interface to FTP made subsequently to address FTP's total lack of security. HTTP PUT is a RESTful HTTP verb, along side other verbs like GET, POST, DELETE and HEAD. The intention for PUT is to update an existing resource (which is denoted by some URI, such as http://example.host.net/video/1.html) with new data sent in HTTP headers (just as what happens when you POST to a resource). POSTs like any HTTP verb can be performed over secure connections using SSH and a browser's builtin facility for negotiating https connections signed with security certificates. If your goal is to set up a personal server to upload files to and from, you want to use something like FTP.

However, if SMIL is to be part of the Web platform I think this behaviour is important. It's hard on developers when attempting to remove a &lt;circle&gt; from the DOM fails just because it has an &lt;animate&gt; element hanging off it. Furthermore, I can imagine editor-type applications wanting to create animated SVG documents entirely via script. So far our experience is that, while difficult, modifying live documents is certainly achievable. SMIL already requires some facility for recalculating intervals and propagating those changes to support syncbase timing. We reuse some of that behaviour every time a timing-related attribute is set on an animation element. We also use an observer pattern to watch for ID changes and then update dependencies, event registration etc. accordingly.

For SMIL 2.0 we specifically allowed only very limited modification of the DOM tree (only adding begin times, really), because the semantics of modifying the live document on the fly are horrendous. At that time, we thought that a later incarnation of the SYMM group might tackle this, but so far that hasn't happened:-) I'm personally rather interested in the subject of modifying active documents, and we've written a paper on preliminary work for Document Engineering this year, with the plan to work things out more thoroughly for next year. But so far the results are that allowing any random modification to an active document is probably out of the question, unless you're willing to recompute the whole timegraph, and even then describing the semantics of the change</pre> Jack Jansen 2010-10-10T20:38:38 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.comp.web.smil
