Hi Jaqueline,
I am trying to load a series of movies into players in a loop, in
order to make thumbnails. Inside a repeat loop, I set each player's
filename, then take a snapshot of it to get a thumbnail image. This
works just fine when I step through it in the debugger.
However, if I let the loop run at its natural speed, I get a bunch
of blank snapshots, either because the content isn't fully loaded
before the script continues, or because the screen isn't refreshing
(I can't tell which.) I need a way to force the loop to wait until
the player is fully loaded, and also something that will refresh
the screen so that a snapshot has something to take a picture of.
I have tried locking and unlocking the screen to force a redraw,
tried "go this card" to force a redraw, tried waiting various
amounts of time both with and without messages, tried "set the
currentTime of player 1 to the duration of player 1" to force a
full load, and everything else I can think of. In no case does the
player content display. I am not sure if this is because the screen
simply isn't redrawing (likely), or because the content isn't fully
loading before the script continues (possible.)
Anyone know how to solve this?
can't you just use Trevors extraordinary EnhancedQT External for this
(and other extremely handy) task(s)?
No problems in a loop :-)
And with the new version (already uploaded this one, Trevor?) there
is no need for exporting a thumbnail
to an external file, just put it into a variable and do whatever you
want with the data.
