Hello, because we want to use a task that includes movies and we would like to make it compatible for windows and mac we tried to use the following code:
<include>
/ precondition=[computer.platform == "windows"]
/ file="wmv_videos.exp"(WHERE DOES THIS REFER TO?)
</include>
<include>
/ precondition=[computer.platform == "mac"]
/ file="mov_videos.exp" (WHERE DOES THIS REFER TO?)
</include>
However, it does not work. Now I read on this forum that it should not be included in a batchfile (as we tried first) but in the file of the task which included the movies. However, I don't really get where to put the code and what other things we need to redefine. Our code looks like this:
<item videoFear>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_fear.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_fear.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_fear.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_fear.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_fear.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_fear.wmv"
</item>
<video videoAngry>
/ items = videoAngry
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<item videoAngry>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_angry.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_angry.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_angry.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_angry.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_angry.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_angry.wmv"
</item>
<video videoHappy>
/ items = videoHappy
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<item videoHappy>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_happy.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_happy.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_happy.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_happy.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_happy.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_happy.wmv"
</item>
<video videoSad>
/ items = videoSad
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<item videoSad>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_sad.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_sad.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_sad.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_sad.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_sad.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_sad.wmv"
</item>
<block MorphTask>
/ preinstructions = (MorphTaskStart)
/ trials = [1-24 = noreplace(videoFear,videoAngry,videoHappy,videoSad)]
/ ontrialbegin = [text.focus.textcolor = values.focuscolor]
/ postinstructions = (MorphTaskEnd)
</block>
So can someone advice us on where to put this code and what other changes we need to make?
Thanks!

Thanks! But what am I doing wrong now?
In my batchfile I refer to a file that is (partly) coded as follows:
<video videoExample>
/ items = videoExample
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<video videoPractice>
/ items = videoPractice
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<video videoFear>
/ items = videoFear
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<video videoAngry>
/ items = videoAngry
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<video videoHappy>
/ items = videoHappy
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<video videoSad>
/ items = videoSad
/ position = (50% , 50%)
/ size = (256px,256px)
</video>
<include>
/ precondition=[computer.platform == "windows"]
/ file="wmv_videos.exp"
</include>
<include>
/ precondition=[computer.platform == "mac"]
/ file="mov_videos.exp"
</include>
And then I made the wmv_videos.exp as follows:
<item videoExample>
/1="Stimuli morph task/examples/25_angry.wmv"
</item>
<item videoPractice>
/1="Stimuli morph task/examples/07_fear.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/examples/25_sad.wmv"
</item>
<item videoFear>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_fear.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_fear.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_fear.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_fear.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_fear.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_fear.wmv"
</item>
<item videoAngry>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_angry.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_angry.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_angry.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_angry.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_angry.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_angry.wmv"
</item>
<item videoHappy>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_happy.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_happy.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_happy.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_happy.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_happy.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_happy.wmv"
</item>
<item videoSad>
/1="Stimuli morph task/02_sad.wmv"
/2="Stimuli morph task/10_sad.wmv"
/3="Stimuli morph task/16_sad.wmv"
/4="Stimuli morph task/20_sad.wmv"
/5="Stimuli morph task/33_sad.wmv"
/6="Stimuli morph task/37_sad.wmv"
</item>
And the mov file in the same way. What am I doing wrong?

#1: <include> elements do not belong in a <batch> file. They belong in the actual *script* files.
#2: / precondition=[computer.platform == "windows"]
"windows" is not what the computer.platform property returns under Windows operating systems. It returns "win".

Ok thanks, it works!
