How to achieve "play different video with same key" ?

in Core Library Questions • 1 years ago

Hi~

I am a beginner of processing. I am going to create a game that can let people to make different decision.

The no. of key pressed time would play different video.

The problem is "how to use a same key to play different video?"

If there are two keys and 6 videos.

Keys: "a" and "b"

Videos: mov_1, mov_2, mov_3, mov_a, mov_b, mov_c

If ....

First time I press "a"---->play mov_1

Second time I press "a"---->play mov_2

Third time I press "a"--->play mov_3

First time I press "b"---->play mov_a

Second time I press "b"---->play mov_b

Third time I press "b"--->play mov_c

But "a" and "b" still working individually even other one has been pressed before.

That mean....

First, I press "a" ---->play mov_1--->

Second, I press "a"---->play mov_2--->

Third, I press "b"--->play mov_a---> (First time to press "b")

Fourth, I press "a"--->play mov_3

I just can make each key play one video:

import processing.video.*;

Movie mov_1,mov_a,nowPlaying;

float f;

float movSpeed;

void setup(){

size(800,800,P2D);

background(0);

mov_1 = new Movie(this, "111.mov");

mov_a = new Movie(this, "aaa.mov");

nowPlaying = mov_1;

nowPlaying.loop();

}

void draw(){

background(0);

image(nowPlaying,0,0,width,height);

}

void movieEvent(Movie _mov){

_mov.read();

}

void keyPressed(){

if (key == 'a'){

nowPlaying = mov_1;

nowPlaying.jump(0);

nowPlaying.loop();

}

if (key == 'b'){

nowPlaying = mov_a;

nowPlaying.jump(0);

nowPlaying.loop();

}

Thanks~~~~~~

You probably need to make two arrays, one for the "digit" movies, the other for the "character" movies.
Have two indexes (int): one holds the index of the played "digit" movie in the first array, the other holds the index of the played "char" movie in the other array.
Just increment the right index when the right key is pressed, and play the corresponding movie.

thank you for helping!!!!!!

But there still has a problem is two image are overlapping. Are there any solution can make the "lb" move on the top layer when I pressed the key "s"? (Also the "rb" move on the top layer when I pressed the key "a")

import processing.video.*;

Movie [] lb;

Movie [] rb;

Movie [] opening;

int leftPlaying;

int rightPlaying;

void setup() {

size(800, 800, P2D);

background(255);

lb = new Movie[3];

lb[0] = new Movie(this, "a.mov");

lb[1] = new Movie(this, "b.mov");

lb[2] = new Movie(this, "c.mov");

rb = new Movie[3];

rb[0] = new Movie(this, "1.mov");

rb[1] = new Movie(this, "2.mov");

rb[2] = new Movie(this, "3.mov");

opening = new Movie[1];

opening[0] = new Movie(this, "opening.mov");

opening[0].loop();

lb[0].loop();

lb[1].loop();

lb[2].loop();

rb[0].loop();

rb[1].loop();

rb[2].loop();

}

void draw() {

//image(mov[0],0,0,width,height);

image(rb[rightPlaying], 0, 0, width, height);

image(lb[leftPlaying], 400, 400, width, height);

}

void keyPressed() {

if (key == 's') {

leftPlaying++; //change movie

if (leftPlaying >= lb.length) {

leftPlaying = 0;

}

if (key == 'a') {

rightPlaying++;

if (rightPlaying >= rb.length) {

rightPlaying = 0;

}
