Yes, Connect the second outlet of [pix_film] to [unpack]. Then the first outlet of [unpack] will give you the total amount of frames of the video you load. So you can connect the first outlet of [unpack] to the last inlet of [counter]. This will set the maximum value to reach for [counter]. I use [counter] to play each frame of the video and i send the scratch values in its third inlet.
this is how i do it... but as Derek were suggesting there is the [mod] object too.. Derek how do you use it? just for curiosity... thanks.. best On Wed, Apr 8, 2009 at 3:11 PM, Jack <j...@rybn.org> wrote: > > Le 8 avr. 09 à 10:34, Marco Donnarumma a écrit : > > Hey.. > thanks Derek, yes i've already done what you're saying for my project > C::NTR::L and i have a simple process which give me dynamically the total > frames for each video you load. > > With the 2nd output of [pix_film] for exemple ? ;) > ++ > > Jack > > > I was asking just to know the truth about it :) > Since i'm using this process a lot i could create a specific example about > this for FLOSS manual.
