Remote Control/ Play Video

Hi,

I have a problem with this code. I have a remote control and I can send information from the usb port by using a RC-5 code receiver. I can see that different data is sent once I press different buttons. Then I want to play a certain video when I press each button. For example I want to play video 1 when I press button 1 and video 2 when I press button 2.

I found these codes; I can play the video with this code.

-----------------------------------------------------------

import processing.video.*;

Movie mov_1,mov_a,nowPlaying;

float f;

float movSpeed;

void setup(){

size(640,480,P2D);

background(0);

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

mov_a = new Movie(this, "drawing.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();

}

}

------------------------------------------------------

With the second code I can see that there is a different data that is sent from the serial port

------------------------------------------------------

import processing.serial.*;

Serial myPort; // The serial port:

void setup() {

println(Serial.list());

myPort = new Serial(this, Serial.list()[0], 9600);

}

void draw() {

while (myPort.available() > 0) {

char inByte = myPort.readChar();

println(inByte);

}

}

----------------------------------------------------

Then I combined these two codes to be able to play a video once there is a different information sent ( different buttons are pressed).

--------------------------------------------------

import processing.serial.*;

import processing.video.*;

Serial myPort; // The serial port:

Movie mov_1,mov_a,nowPlaying;

float f;

float movSpeed;

void setup() {

size(640,480,P2D);

background(0);

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

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

nowPlaying = mov_1;

nowPlaying.loop();

println(Serial.list());

myPort = new Serial(this, Serial.list()[0], 9600);

}

void draw() {

while (myPort.available() > 0) {

char inByte = myPort.readChar();

println(inByte);

if (inByte == '1') {

nowPlaying = new Movie(this, "tation.mov");

nowPlaying.loop();

}

if (inByte == '2') {

nowPlaying = mov_a;

nowPlaying.loop();

}

background(0);

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

}

}

--------------------------------------------------

But I have a problem with this code,

I can see that different data is sent from the remote control from the serial monitor. Once I press button 1, video 1 appears and the same happens for button 2 and video 2. However I can only see the first frame of the videos. When I press again I see another frame. I need the videos to play in a loop. How can I solve this problem?

Thanks a lot.
