1. Were you able to figure out why one of the MMS messages came through but the other did not?
2. Will you be adding SMIL support
Not sure how difficult #2 would be to implement.
1) So as far as I can tell, they both actually succeeded. I think it was something on the purple-mm-sms side. Do you have a file called "/home/manjaro/.mms/modemmanager/65F7282A43EC9DCAA9F72BE60AAF64D30189699C " ? That seems to be where it was saved. I also ran into a couple of really weird bugs caused by unrelated things on mmsd, so you may want to grab the latest one now.
2) That will have to be supported for MMS, but that is a complex question. I have mainly been working on the backend to get this working for chatty, but chatty needs to integrate features itself to support MMS fully. One of those features will be SMIL support. I am unfortunately running into a wall of doing as much as I can without modifying chatty, and I would feel much more confortable working with the maintainers of chatty to do that (mainly due to time constraints, I don't have the time to get chatty functional with MMS). My primary hope with doing this is to nudge the Purism folks into putting this higher on their priorities, as they have a) a functional mmsd to work with, and b) a starting place with purple-mm-sms to support MMS.
What would be useful for SMIL is to find an encoder/decoder for it really. A quick search reveals this: https://github.com/cwi-dis/ambulant . But SMIL will have to be something that has to be tackled at some point, and if someone could find an SMIL player that works inthe pinephone, what would be great! There is this too https://github.com/pmarti/python-messaging .
