playback-math question

hey guys..

iam playing a video file with jit.qt.movie
via key and keyup i want to jump back for 250ms in the video.
when i release the key, i want to jump back to the point where the video would be without the jump back…

for example:
on 1000ms i want to jump back 100ms to 900. then i hold the key for 100ms. playing from 900 to 1000. when i then release the video will play from 1000 to end.
but i want to jump back to 1100ms. so the video stays in “sync”.

do you understand what i mean? its hard to explain for me.

right now i achieved it somehow. with a bunch of counters, metros and gates. its not working well though…

any suggestions how to do this properly?

thank you very much.

many ways to achieve this.
i would use a combination of key, keyup, trigger, int, and some simple math.

why don’t you post a stripped down version of your attempt?
in doing so, you may figure out what the problem is yourself.
