Now we are talking!
Again I have to say: really great those modules.
What do you think, check the online library of modules and download the 'shuttleLoop_v1'?

What I noticed
when you use the shuttleLoop. it's active on all the layers.
What I want is that I set one layer and then go to the next for a different setting.
I was thinking:
should I make for all the layers different variable then read what is the active layer and use those variable for example:
spd_01 = 0.01
spd_02 = 0.02 etc.
the numbers 01, 02 are then the layers and so on.

if layer 10 is selected than use variable spd_10

I think this will work, but can someone tell me how to read the active layer? Is it with getValue?
But than I'm getting a problem with moving the position of the layer?

You read it, enough to figure out!

yo did a great work!! that's so useful! maybe we must make a big module together with shuttlecontrol ;) It's a bit stupid to have to modules with similar options... You can use my source if you want ;)
btw, I have the same question about how to know wich layer is selected... But your idea to use variables for each layers is good!!

Those were also my thoughts. I started with the idea of one big module.
But the sinus from in to out was a bit to must hard thinking this morning.

Lets go for it, give me some days and I will fix the variable with differend layers. I hope ;-)

Great work! This was just what I was looking for!

Good job so far! I wish I could program python, I'd be spending all my time doing modules...
Really what this needs is to have enough of BACF in it to tap BPMs to set the speed.
If it could measure the footage length, and of course the length between "in" and "out" and set the speed to match the BPM, it would be even more useful!

Cool stuff ! Especially without a documentation! ;-)

Maybe it's now possible yet, but how can i read which layer i have selected.

Now i am busy with making your own presets in this module.

I had an idea, I didn't look at your code, but do you think (boris, is it possible?) you can add your in and out knob to the BACF module to have a sinus between half groupA and full goupB? (hum... do you understand?) That would be so useful if you want to keep the images of groupB and have a logo over with a kind of transparency

Yy! My idea coming into fruition. I really need to shape up with the Python coding, I'm so slow.

Thanks man for mking thism, it's very interesting.

Thank you for ShuttleLoopp!!

I wonder if it's possible to include a feature that enables the movie to go from A to B and then from B to A, so that the movie doesn't start from the beginning, but goes back and forth....

Btw: I duplicated the ShuttleLoop 10 times and adjusted the layer number for each, so that I - when I open 10 Shuttleloops - have a ShuttleLoop controller for each layer...

Yeah :P did you try to switch between layer sets? I think the shuttle loop will be apply to the layers of the other layer group :P ;) that's a kind of problem... :roll:

yes, that'd be REALLY good! ( looking into python, now... )
