AAF on mixbus?

[Jostein]

Many thanks Adrien. It's looking like Jostein is in fact running Kubuntu so I don't know if a build will work for him now - but hopefully (if he can find some spare time...) he'll be able to give it another try for us. Fingers crossed 

I'm currently buried with work, so it might take a few weeks before I look at it.  :-)

Thanks Jostein - FWIW I just spent a few minutes here seeing if I could compile new_aaf_session.cc on Windows (using MSVC) but at the moment, some of its header files assume it'll be getting compiled under Linux (and in a couple of places, it's assumed it'll be getting built with gcc). So it's not yet buildable here. Given the right compiler though, it felt like it'd be quite a simple build, once you can set some time aside. Good luck!

It's not a fix exactly but overnight I remembered that Microsoft's compiler can now use Clang, as an alternative to MSVC. So this morning I tried another compile, this time using Clang - and it worked!! (with only some minor modifications...)

I can't link the code of course because I'd need a Windows build of LibAAF itself - but it definitely seems more promising now

Exciting !!!!

This is another example of the power of open-source development, and why Mixbus is fundamentally different from other DAWs out there.

Good news !

FWIW, cross-compilation of libAAF under linux is working well (using mingw32). I still have to run the lib on windows for testing.

On the Ardour's side, things are moving forward

You're welcome to send it to me !

Of course, but I don't think I can send files through PM.
Can you send me your email ?

[johne53]

Done!

You can send links but not attached files

Does anyone know of a small ProTools session I can download from somewhere? I'm helping to develop the new AAF importer and I'd like to see how the PT importer works (so we can make them similar...)
