Is there a reason why jit.playlist doesn't understand the message frame $1 (or frame $1 $2)?

I thought jit.playlist was a sort of super poly-bpatcher with jit.movie objects in it.

The reason I'm asking is that I usually use the message frame $1 to synchronize jit.movie objects with my phasor~ metronome. It would be awesome to be able to do that with jit.playlist as well.

message-frame-1-to-jit-playlist

looks like the frame message did not get exposed to jit.playlist. i will note this as a feature request. for now you can use time (time-units), time_secs (time in seconds), or position (normalized position value from 0. to 1.)

jit.playlist needs to receive a clip number before these messages time, time_secs and position (even vol) do something. So the video is playing back while moving the position, which is not great for fluidity.

It would be nice to be able to send a message to a clip without having to play it back at the same time.

thanks Rob!

thanks again Rob, the message rate 0 works

I need to add a delay around 100ms after the clip number to make it work though. But that's good enough for what I need now. Thanks
