I'm using the jit.qt.movie object to play a rather long video file that I want to split into multiple sections that automatically stop at differing lengths. I realise that I could edit it and load in multiple clips, but I'd like the option to change the input file after a while. Triggering at specific times and stopping it are fine, as is getting a read out of time data etc.

However, getting the playback to stop at a specific place is proving to be more difficult than I thought. I tried using sel attached to the time number out but it doesn't seem to have any effect, however it is sending a bang when tested without movie playback (perhaps the numbers are updating too fast?).

I've googled and searched the forum/tutorials but haven't found anything that does this.

Does any one have any ideas? Next step is some data scaling into minutes/seconds from ms perhaps?

Thanks!
