Hello, i just released a new module to trigger media in a sequence. you can choose the number of patterns you wanna play.
It's not a timeline but you can play movies sequentially:
to play every frames push the wait movie button.

enjoy!

here's a preview of the module in edit Mode

great module. but there is a bug in the "wait movie" option.
it waits 1 second on the end of every movie before it jumps to the next movie.
you see a still image of the last frame ...
the timed switch works realy great. thanx a lot for this module !

it's not a bug ,the module is buikt ont hte structure of the current slideshow module. it only wait the end of the movie regardless of the time. for instance if the movie leduration is 5 seconds, and your timer is set to 6 at then end of the movie it will wait for one second, but if you set the timer to 1 second andthe module will wait for the end of the movie before going to tne next media on the list. there are no event in modul8 scripts to yell at the end of a movie.

ahh, i see. i did not get it with the wait time ...
perhaps this code helps detecting a loop.
regrettably the begining .....
(put it in the periodicalEvent section)


# Ensure variable is defined
try:
theOldMovieDuration
except NameError:
theOldMovieDuration = None

if theOldMovieDuration is None:
theOldMovieDuration = 100000

theMovieDuration = modul8.getValue('direct_layer_media_timePositionSec', 1 )

if (theOldMovieDuration > theMovieDuration):
print "________________loopHasStarted: "

theOldMovieDuration = theMovieDuration
