Playbar refreshrate stuck around 48 fps when set to 60 fps
I've got a patch where I added a playbar object. I need to be able to set the playbar on 25, 30, 50 or 60 fps.
When I set the playbar to 50 or 60 fps the framerate is stuck around 48-49 fps.
When I get rid of the playbar and only use the qmetro everything works as it should. But I need the UI of the playbar to set looppoints (in and out).
I also noticed that when the playbar is running and I activate qmetro on let's say 50 fps it keeps stuck on the same values as the playbar 48-49 fps. When I hit pause on the playbar qmetro immediately goes to a steady 50 fps.
Am I missing something, do I need to set other values in the advanced time scheduler for this to work properly?
I don't get it actually, I thought playbar was just to control jit.movie, I find it a little disturbing that it's banging as well.
I added this part of the patch for reference. Any help and suggestions are welcome ;)
i'm pretty sure this is just the nature of playbar. i'll register a feature request to support disabling the internal banging mechanism via an attribute.
in the meantime, i would create your own gui using rslider and some buttons.
Thanks Rob, I was thinking of a feature request as well, I dropped the question here as well just to be sure. For now I will make my own gui, just a little more happy patching ;)
Cheers!
