I recently started learning this great software, and wanted to try some stuff out before creating intricate patches. The tutorials are great, but I have come to realization that the forum and messing around is a great supplementary learning tool.

As a starter, I wanted to create a two channel player. Each channel will have multiple videos uploaded, and has the ability to play through the videos at random or selected by control. It would be great to have some easy video manipulation with each channel as well.

Excuse me for not speaking the terminology or vocabulary properly, but I am very new to this forum. Hope that what I need help with makes sense.

I look forward to contributing to the forum when I become more knowledgeable at the program. Thank you for all your help in advance.

Once you have learned the basics of Max, the Jitter Tutorials will be most relevant to what you propose to do. In addition to the tutorials and this forum, you'll probably find on the web many examples from classes such as this:

Also check the examples on the Max5 folder, there are all kind of goodies there!

Thank you to the both of you for your help.
