hello,

i'm having a problem with the [open( and [auto( messages for [pix_film] : i have an abstraction (see attachment) that responds to a [read <movieName( in the right inlet by setting [auto 0(, then calling [open(. if i send a successive [start( in the right inlet, [auto 1( will be sent. i need to insert a stupid delay because otherwise the [auto 1( is swallowed. that delay is only safe in the order of some 100 milliseconds. i want this patch to be clean without any experimental delayed messages. is there a way to determine when pix_film is done with initializing the movie and when it will be ready to accept the auto message?

thanks for help! ciao, -sciss-
