Problem with sel and jit.qt.movie
Aug 23 2013 | 4:47 pm
Hey Max fans,
I'm trying to route the time and duration of a movie to a sel object so that I can start crossfading at a specific percentage from the end of a movie. I'm using the duration to determine the starting point for the crossfade and using the current time to trigger a sel object based on that number. It seems really straightforward, yet the sel does not send out a bang when the time reaches the number set by the duration. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong or have a better way of doing this? A very simplified version of the patch is pasted below.
Thanks!

So instead of testing for an exact match with sel, you should use [>=] to [change] to [sel 1].Your problem is addressed in this thread:stop playback at a specific time including some examples of what I described above.
