playing 2 videos
Sep 28th, 2008, 4:30am  
hi! help please why when i press the second key for the second video to play, it just have finished?
it seems that they where played at the same time, i mean they start and end at the same time even if the second isn`t "on"

the code


import processing.video.*;
Movie myMovie;
Movie myMovie2;

void setup() {
 size(200, 200);
 myMovie = new Movie(this, "station.mov");
 
 myMovie2 = new Movie(this, "station2.mov");
;
 
}
void draw (){
 image(myMovie, 0, 0);
 image(myMovie2, 10, 20);
}

void keyPressed() {
 if (key == 's'){
   myMovie.play();
 
 }
  if (key == 'd'){
   myMovie2.play();
 
 }

}

void movieEvent(Movie m) {
 m.read();
 

}

 } else {
   myMovie2.stop();
 }
 
 image(myMovie, 0, 0);
 image(myMovie2, 10, 20);
 
//Testing to see if they play at the same time.
println("Movie 1: " + myMovie.time());
println("Movie 2: " + myMovie2.time());
}

void movieEvent(Movie m) {
 m.read();
 

}


Hey, I had the exact same problem as you and I have no clue why it ignores the syntax that tells it only do action if catalyst is enabled, but, regardless, I found an else statement that stops or pause it fixes the problem, only problem is that it has to be in the draw function because -- well I don't know why it has to be in the draw function.

But it works, so good luck.
