You need to implement a few Booleans... set one to false at launch, set it to true when the movie has reached the last frame, then add an additional check when you get a high signal from your Arduino to see if it is currently playing or not...

Hello,
sorry I'm pretty new at this

I've attempted adding the boolean but I have not got much idea what to really do with them, especially when it comes to locations of placing them and how the language for it to recognize the last frame, as well as the additional check....I've been looking around to try and figure it out but here's where I've gotten, could you help with just a few pointers? :


import processing.video.*;


import codeanticode.gsvideo.*;
import processing.serial.*;
import cc.arduino.*;

Arduino arduino;

color off = color(0, 0, 0);
color on = color(84, 145, 158);
GSMovie myMovie;
boolean launch = false;


void setup() {
 
 
  size(1280, 720);
  arduino = new Arduino(this, Arduino.list()[0], 57600);
 
  for (int i = 0; i <= 13; i++)
    arduino.pinMode(i, Arduino.INPUT);

  size(1280, 720);
  background(0);
  myMovie = new GSMovie(this, "buildings.mov");

 
   
}

void draw() {
  launch = true;
  background(off);
  stroke(on);
  image(myMovie, 0, 0);


  for (int i = 0; i <= 13; i++) {
    if (arduino.digitalRead(i) == Arduino.HIGH)
     myMovie.play();
  
 
  
  }


}


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

}

Avoid multiplying identical topics. If you have no answers, you can bump up this topic. Perhaps giving more information, etc.
Also note that Arduino-related topics generally go to Integration & Hardware, where I have moved this topic.
Although it can be in Contributed Libraries too, if the question is specific to GSVideo instead.

Yes I'll keep that in mind now,

I've done more to my code, but I'm still very stuck in where I've added three booleans for when the movie is playing, when the arduino is high, and when the movie is yet again available.

I need the code to be able to recognize that when the movie is finished, that it is available again to be played. and when the arduino is high again, that will play the movie till the end again.

 


import processing.video.*;
import codeanticode.gsvideo.*;
import processing.serial.*;
import cc.arduino.*;

Arduino arduino;

color off = color(0, 0, 0);
color on = color(84, 145, 158);
GSMovie myMovie;
boolean isPlaying;
boolean isHigh;
boolean isAvailable;


void setup() {
 
 
  size(1280, 720);
  arduino = new Arduino(this, Arduino.list()[0], 57600);
 
  for (int i = 0; i <= 13; i++)
    arduino.pinMode(i, Arduino.INPUT);

  size(1280, 720);
  background(0);
  myMovie = new GSMovie(this, "buildings.mov");

}
   

void draw() {
  background(off);
  stroke(on);
 image(myMovie, 0, 0);

 


  for (int i = 0; i <= 13; i++) {
    if (arduino.digitalRead(i) == Arduino.HIGH)
         myMovie.play();
  }
 
 for (int i = 0; i <= 13; i++) {
    if (arduino.digitalRead(i) == Arduino.HIGH){   
    isHigh = true;
  } else {
    isHigh = false;
  }
}

  if (myMovie.play()){
 isPlaying=true;
  } else {
 isPlaying=false;
  }
 
  if (myMovie.available()) {
    isAvailable=true;
  }else{
    isAvailable=false;
  }

}



{
  for(isPlaying; isHigh; isAvailable) {
  if((isAvailable=true) && (isHigh=true)) {
    isPlaying=true;    //Set color to black
  } else {
    isPlaying=false;  //Set color to white
  }
 
}

}

void movieEvent(GSMovie m) {
  m.read(); 
 
}





I'm not too sure of the boolean  isAvailable, since I don't know where it'll get it's numbers from, and also when I attempt to test it, if (myMovie.play()){ becomes a problem since it says "cannot convert from void to boolean".

Can anyone point me to the right direction?
