Getting sources
To get the sources of VSS, we're going to use the TortoiseSVN program.
It's an easy to use SVN client that integrates with Windows Explorer.
So, first download and install TortoiseSVN.
Then create a new folder called VisualSubSync.
Right click on that folder and choose TortoiseSVN>Checkout.
A dialog should open. In the “URL of the repository” field, enter:
https://visualsubsync.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/visualsubsync/trunk/VisualSubSync
Finally, confirm with the OK button.
Compiling
Delphi installation
Download and install Delphi 7 Personal.
You will need to register at CodeGear to get your license information: http://www.codegear.com/downloads/free/delphi
Components installation
I usually put components in the Delphi folder. For example, in: C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Compo\
Virtual Treeview
Download and install the Virtual Treeview component by using the installer: http://www.soft-gems.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=33
TntUnicode components
Uncompress the provided TntUnicode components: TntUnicode Controls 2.3.0 for Delphi 7 Personal
For example, in: C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Compo\TntUnicodeControls
Now, we need to configure Delphi for TntUnicode components .
Start Delphi and choose File>Open Project… and open the file C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Compo\TntUnicodeControls\Delphi\d7\TntUnicode_7.bpg
In the Project Manager window, right click on TntUnicodeVcl_R70.bpl and choose Compile.
Then right click on TntUnicodeVcl_D70.bpl and choose Compile then Install.
Close the project with File>Close all.
In Tools>Environment Options>Library, add $(Delphi)\Compo\TntUnicodeControls\Source to the Library path.
VSS compilation
Finally, open the project VisualSubSync.dpr and choose Project>Build all projects.
That's it. You should now have the file VisualSubSync.exe in the Release directory.
To start VSS from there, you need to add a few DLLs:
- js3215R.dll: the javascript engine
- libhunspell.dll: the spell checker
- VSSCustomVSFilter.dll: the custom VSS version of VSFilter
- WavWriter.dll: the directshow filter used for audio extraction
