Upgrading to Mpeg Advance Xtra 2.0
Mpeg Advance Xtra was developed with support for current applications in mind: all existing Lingo is still supported and movies authored with version 1.x should "just work" with this new version. The Xtra now maintains the internal cuepoints and linked movie information in Unicode (UTF8) format, and will convert existing movies the first time they are opened. The Xtra will also handle string conversion to/from Unicode automatically, no matter the version of Director and platform it is running into. A new serial number is needed to use this version. For more information about the general upgrade procedure to Director 11 please consult this technote.
