I purchased Modul8 and have spent the past 3 days trying to learn the modules and scripting. I have not been very successful, although I have thoroughly read the manual, and searched this forum. I have also tried to learn from inspecting code in several relevant modules, but I am still stumped. I have previous experience writing JavaScripts, AppleScripts, and Visual Basic, but I cannot get the syntax right for Modul8.
Task I need to accomplish:
With one action, I need to un-hide a layer, trigger a media to play on that layer, then fade out after the media finishes (alpha -> 0). Ultimately, I will trigger via MIDI, but a simple button will work to prove the function.
I have tried combining and modifying code from these modules:
(s6) LayerFade (layer), Movie Controler (layer), Movie Restart (layer)
I still can't make it work. I would appreciate any examples or tips to make this action possible. It seems like it should be a fairly basic thing for a VJ application to accomplish.
Thanks
