Sorry, no time to patch it for you now, but basically send the total
number of frames output by [pix_film] to the cold inlet of mod, send the
output of the counter to the hot inlet of [mod]. By changing the speed
of the [metro] in the counter, you change frame playback rate. You can
also put another [mod] below that to loop a smaller section, with a [+]
following it to make the frame offset.
In bad ASCII:
[metro (playback speed in ms)]
|
[f]x[+1]
|
[mod (total number of frames)]
|
[mod (length of loop in frames)]
|
[+ (starting frame of loop)]
|
(cold inlet of [pix_film])
Hope that makes sense! I'll leave it to you to figure out how to make it
run backwards ;-)
Best,
D.

Yes, Connect the second outlet of [pix_film] to [unpack].
Then the first outlet of [unpack] will give you the total amount of
frames of the video you load.
So you can connect the first outlet of [unpack] to the last inlet of
[counter]. This will set the maximum value to reach for [counter].
I use [counter] to play each frame of the video and i send the scratch
values in its third inlet.
this is how i do it... but as Derek were suggesting there is the [mod]
object too.. Derek how do you use it?
just for curiosity...
thanks..

Hey..
thanks Derek, yes i've already done what you're saying for my
project C::NTR::L and i have a simple process which give me
dynamically the total frames for each video you load.
With the 2nd output of [pix_film] for exemple ? ;)

I was asking just to know the truth about it :)
Since i'm using this process a lot i could create a specific
example about this for FLOSS manual. I have this exact process
ready in my patches.
ATM i'm terribly busy, but i'll keep it in mind and contribute asap.

Hi Marco,
This has been normal behavior as long as I have been aware of
it. That
doesn't mean that it's not a bug, however ;-)
If you want looping + scrubbing, a better way would be to build a
counter with a [mod] object set to the total number of frames
in your
clip, that way you could change the payback speed of the clip
and (with
some adjustments to the counter) skip around in the frames as
well as go
backwards, etc etc. (Nice topic for a FLOSS Manuals tutorial,
eh Marius?)
best!

something like that is already there, but not as a separate
example (yet...)
