Thanks Klaus!

Hi Chris,
Hello all -
I expect this is an easy question, but I can't seem to see how to do it! How do I see if a player is playing?
Watch very hard :-)
The playrate property always returns 1 (I want to play movies at normal speed)
The playrate determines the plaback speed of your movie and 0 means that a playing
movie is currently paused ;-)
I had thought it might return "0" if the movie was not playing.
The movie() function only seems to work with video clips, not player objects. So I can't say "if the movie is done..."
I need the equivalent of a "playing()" function that would return true or false.
Since there is no direct way to dtermine what you want, use a little trick:
function movie_is_playing put the currenttime of player xyz into ct wait 10 millisecs return (the currenttime fo player xyz < ct) ##will be true if the movie is inded playing, else will be false end movie_is_playing
Here i just check 2 different "times" and see if they are identical or not...
Hope that helps...
A (virtual) Mars bar to the first person with the answer!!!
Chris
