Movie Loader slowing down I saw this posting on the movie loader and works pretty well. great tutorial on movie loader. http://vjkungfu.com/archive/new-movie-loader-in-quartz-composer-for-snow... They mention about changing the rate to slow it down. function (__number position, __boolean reset) main (__number inputNumber[8], __number duration) { var result = new Object(); var slice = duration/8; if(inputNumber[0]>0){ result.position = slice*1-slice; result.reset = true; } else if(inputNumber[1]>0){ result.position = slice*2-slice; result.reset = true; } else if(inputNumber[2]>0){ result.position = slice*3-slice; result.reset = true; } else if(inputNumber[3]>0){ result.position = slice*4-slice; result.reset = true; } else if(inputNumber[4]>0){ result.position = slice*5-slice; result.reset = true; } else if(inputNumber[5]>0){ result.position = slice*6-slice; result.reset = true; } else if(inputNumber[6]>0){ result.position = slice*7-slice; result.reset = true; } else if(inputNumber[7]>0){ result.position = slice*8-slice; result.reset = true; } else{ result.reset=false; } return result; } |
the rate is applied to the movie import patch. you can use the rate to slow down the movie or speed it up. the rate also controls the play position. a value of 1 makes the movie patch play forward at original speed and a value of negative 1 will rewind the movie. with that stated if you apply a mouse x to the movie import patch's rate then you will be able to scrub back and forth by moving your mouse. qc's -1 to 1 unit screen dimensions play well with rate. see patch....
sweet, love the script you have been a huge help. Shout outs to you everywhere. Do you think with this script its possible with a click on the mouse button to slow down the movie and stay slow and then every click with another button (maybe right) speeds it up.
I tried to switch and code on button clicks but it seemed to freeze when I programmed left and right buttons. I had to hold them instead of each click on the button gets faster is what I am trying to shoot for. Any ideas
I was playing with it, still freezes with holding down the click. Is there a way to click and release and stay at that slow or faster speed?
Is it possible to to use a button click (once) each time to change the speed up and down
here push up arrow to increment the rate and down arrow to decrement the rate. ;)
