do anyone have 069 release? (expert version is ok)
please, upload it somewhere or drop directly to mail@eggnot.com
need such old one to show to students my old sketches
 

as far as i know, current video with gstream is far from to be frame-accurate. actually it's turns to total hell to process every frame of video exactly once.
probably, as i can guess, it's goes from underlayng ffmpeg which also can't jump to exact frame. probably, accurate jump it's not so necessary, but there's should be the way to get needed frame!

i think video should have another api. with more low-level methods exposed. something like this:

1. videoStream video = new videoStream();
2. video.open("bla.mov"); // returns True if all ok
3. //simple iteration (maybe it's better to have iterator througth frames?)
   
4. PImage frame0 = video.decodeFrameAndStep();
5. //and
   
6. video.stepFrame();
7. video.stepFrame();
8. PImage frame3 = video.decodeFrameAndStep();
9. // as i can assume such internal logic should know last I-frame and do decode from it.
10. // maybe, even frametype can be public
11. println(video.frame + ": " + video.frameType);
12. // and for jump, if it's not accurate there sould be a way to get needed frame
13. video.jump(toSomeTime);
14. while(video.frame>frameWeNeed)
15.       video.stepToPreviosIntra();
16. while(video.frame<frameWeNeed)
17.       video.stepFrame();
18. Pimage frameWeNeedImg = video.decodeFrameAndStep(); // or decodeFrame();

ok, maybe some intellegent jump() should do something like this internally,

but anyway, will be great to have more low-level control over video:
such as stepToNextIntra(), stepToPreviosIntra() for fast video rewind
some iteration thougth frames for fast every frame processing
and so on...

LET'S DISCUSS WHAT WE NEED, BUGGY JUMP() IS NOT ENOUGHT!
