Hi Scott,
This is weird, it doesn't work here. What happens if you set
"alwaysBuffer" to true?
I don't understand a couple of things about your snippet:
set the currentTime of player 1 to (F * the timeScale of player 1)
In my case the timeScale is 600, so frame number * timeScale would
give values that are way off. I multiple by 24 which is (timeScale /
FramesPerSecond = 24). In this case FPS is 25 (I'm hardwiring this at
the moment since I can't find out how to get this info from the player).
set text of img _display to myVar
is there a difference between this and:
put myImageData into image "ImageThumbnail"
It would be nice to know what "alwaysBuffer" actually does. It could
be that there is an old copy of the buffer being used, or RunRev
doesn't think the image has changed.
Thanks a lot,
All the Best
Dave

I've had this before and found that the "always buffer" property has
to be set correctly for it to work. However, as far as I know, the

I do this RunRev Crashes. Why is this?
Can't tell you why Rev crashes but, for the most part, setting the
alwaysBuffer of a player will often degrade playback performance
since Rev
tries to layer the player's content like an object.
I tried a simple test with a MOV file and got what I think are the
results
you're aiming for. I used the following script in a button with the
alwaysBuffer of the player set to false and the controller hidden.
on mouseUp
repeat with F = 1 to 20
set the currentTime of player 1 to (F * the timeScale of player 1)
export snapshot from rect (rect of player 1) of player 1 to
myVar as JPEG
set text of img _display to myVar
wait 30 with messages
end repeat
end mouseUp
On my end (OS X 10.4.9, Rev 2.8.1), the display image updates every
half
second with each frame captured from the movie. Appeared to work
with both
JPEG and PNG export.
