Newbie: How to go to the next frame after movie clip is complete

I know this should be the simplest thing to do, but I can't
figure it out. I have a movie clip on my timeline. I want it to
play completely before the timeline moves to the next frame. Can
someone point me in the right direction?

On the last frame in the movieclip, place this code (it's
Actionscript 2).
_parent.nextFrame();

  • How can i delete the duplicate pictures and movie clips on my macbook pro

    how can i delete all the duplicate pictures and movie clips on my macbook pro. it is telling me i have no memory

    By 'no memory' may I assume you are out of space on your hard drive?
    Obviously you can delete them one by one, but this is tedious and will take a long time and you wish to do this quickly and efficiently.
    This is my suggestion and it may not be worth a lot:
    If all of your duplicates have a unique characteristic common to them that the originals do not, this MIGHT work.  For example if you make a duplicate of an image, it will have the same title as the original, but will insert the word 'copy' in its' title.  (It should do some thing similar with movie clips).
    Go to Spotlight in System Preferences.  Click on Privacy (near the top of the pane) and then the + sign (near the lower left hand corner).  This will result in a drop down menu.  Select all the places you do not want Spotlight to search.  You should leave only Music and Movies unless you have pictures/movie clips in other places.
    Enter into spotlight the unique characteristic (ie; copy) and it should (I hope) list all your duplicates.  Perform a Select All, and put them in Trash.
    Otherwise do them one by one or write an Apple Script Program.
    If my convoluted idea does not work, perhaps you will be lucky and a more savvy person with a real solution will come forth!
    Caio.

  • How do I mute the sound on a movie clip that I'm using in iphoto slide show?

    I cant get rid of the sound on a movie clip I'm using in an iphoto slide show. I want to mute it as I'm using music on the slideshow. Thanks!

    Did your Mac come with iMovie preinstalled?
    Then you could export your video, import it to iMovie and remove the audio track. iMovie has two methods to silence a video clip - you can either select the clip in the project and use the command "Detach audio" or chance the audio settings of the clip and set the volume to zero. Then render the video new and import the silent version to iPhoto to use in the slideshow.

  • How can I see the first frame of a clip in the Event Library

    I slate my shots for a reason, but when I am looking in the Event Library I see a random frame a couple of seconds in to the clip instead of the first frame, how can I set it so I can see the first frame?
    Thanks in advance

    Switch to filmstrip view and zoom in.

  • How do i mute the sound in a movie clip using action script?

    assuming my movie clip is named "movie"

    You should use SoundTranfrom object and soundTransform property of your movieClip.
    At first you have to instantiate soundTransform object and assign value of 1 to it's volume property:
    var soundTr:SoundTransform = new SoundTransform();
    soundTr.volume = 1;
    Than a simple toggle function, which changes volume property of soundTr and assigns the object soundTr to your movie's soundTransform property.
    function toggleMute():void
        if(soundTr.volume == 1)
            soundTr.volume = 0;
        }else{
            soundTr.volume = 1;
        movie.soundTransform = soundTr;

  • How do I display the individual frames of a clip in the timeline?

    I've imported an image sequence into Premiere Pro and dragged it into a video track so it shows up as a clip. So far, so good. But when I click on the display options for the track and "Show Frames", all it gives me are these large, unhelpful thumbnails along the the length of the clip that don't even match the timeline ruler at the top. I can't select individual frames to shuffle them around or delete them. I've tried looking in Preferences, View, etc., all over the internet through different forums, and right clicking everywhere in every window to try and find an option to turn on an individual frame view, and I found zilch. Any help with this problem would be much appreciated.

    No, it's not. The 'order' of animation is something that has to be carefully planned and tweaked by the animator, and anyway, there are different kinds of animation. Some is completely abstract, without any apparent order. And if all you have is a raw image sequence, like I do, then sometimes you have mistakes in one frame that were corrected in another, and you want to find them and take them out, not to mention experimenting with the timing. Let's say you have a motion that makes an arc in 12 drawings. If you take out 2 or 3 at different places towards the end, you can give the appearance that the animation subject complete the arc at an accelerated pace without the motion seeming 'incorrect.'
    What I need to do is to be able to grab and pull individual frames like this so I can properly put together my project.

  • How can I change the date of a movie clip?

    I just digitized some Video8 analog tapes into iMovie and iMovie filed them under 2012 category (since analog tapes have no metadata I suppose). Is there any way to assign the correct year (i.e. 1998) to the clips so they will be filed under the correct year?

    Hi Karsten
    Me just adding in - tried this date and time change and as I get it
    • iMovie'08 - can't be done - Right-Click or Shift-Click or whatever-Click - just don't work
    • iMovie'09 (and most probably iM'11) - Exactly as describet - BUT one must ctrl-Click on one CLIP at a time - Can't be done to a full Event in one stroke (at least I can not figure out how)
    (Now I did figure it out - Select Clip one - keep Shift-key down and select last clip in Event - then when all is selected ctrl-Click in one of them and Change Date & Time and all will change)

  • How can i change the date of imported movie clips from mini dv?

    i imported 1 hour of video from the same tape and created 1 event for all of them.but the date of it is today so imovie is showing it under 2011 when it is 2008? i tried the terminal command touch -t 200806061200 and then draging the event from movies-imovie events to the terminal, i also tried the touch -mt but its not working The folder itself changed dates but not all the clips inside it?

  • Advancing a wmv to the next frame

    Is there an easy script to use to advance an .wmv to the next frame after playing?
    I do not know lingo but have used easy scripts (below) controlling mpgs with xtras.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.  thanks, Don.
    on 
    exitFramego 
    to the frame
    end
    on  
    OnStagePlaybackFinished
    go  to the frame + 1end
     

    Hi,
    Look at the Post Action of a Step, you can set this to do a number of tasks, one of which is to invoke a SequenceCall. You have the option to do a post action on a PASS, FAIL or you can perform a Custom Post Action.
    Hope this is what you are looking for

  • How do I optimize "Waiting for the next frame"

    When running my swf file in release build, the first time I start the browser after cleaning the browser cache, the .swf will appear in less than a second.  If I attach scout, I can see it is around .7 seconds to finish.
    However, after this run all subsequent times I load the page, it takes ~3 seconds.
    When I look at scout, I see almost identical CPU and memory use , but it is spending ~2.3 seconds "Waiting for the next frame".  (almost an extra 700ms per frame).
    There is no requirement for animation, all of the content is very static.   I'd just like to render it as fast as possible.
    I know it's not related to caching the .swf file because I have tried turning off the caching (by adding a random parameter) and verified using Httplogger that it is always downloading a new .swf file.  (I turned back on caching).  So I'm kind of not sure what to do next...
    What things can I try to optimize this?  Are there places I can read about this issue?
    (P.S.  >>  I notice it spends a lot more time "Waiting for the next frame" when I build a debug version.  Don't know if that's relevant...)
    Thanks!

    There's nothing you can do about "Waiting for next frame" - this is simply the time when Flash Player has finished doing everything it needs to do for the frame, and waiting for the OS to wake it up again. This depends on the framerate you set in your swf - roughly speaking, the waiting time is the budget (1/framerate), minus the time Flash Player spends doing actual work.
    You can find more information here, about understanding how the data you see in Scout relates to how Flash Player works:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/scout/articles/understanding-flashplayer-with-scout.html
    btw, you shouldn't look at performance in a debug swf - you'll get wildly misleading results.

  • How To Pass an Array from One Frame in a Sequence to a ptr in the next Frame

    I have an array (generated from the "Replace Array Subset" VI) that I
    wish to pass to the next sequence in a frame.
    In this second frame, however, the VI that this data will go into
    expects it as a pointer to a buffer.
    Of course in C, the array name is the pointer to the array itself, but
    apparently this is not the case in Labview..
    because if I wire the output array to the edge of the frame (Blue
    solid blox - "Tunneling'?), and then try to connect
    that blue box in the second frame, to the VI expecting a pointer and
    the wire connection gets broken, and the blue
    solid box goes empty.
    How Can I do this??

    You are not being quite clear.  If the next frame expects a pointer to a buffer, it cannot be a vi.  Labview has no pointer types.  You must be referring to a Call Library Node which is set up to call a DLL function.  If this is the case, you need to configure the Call Library Node to accept an array of the data type.  Then you can wire the array into the call library node.
    Is this the case, Call Library Node?

  • How can I Print the next 4 or 5 weeks from iCal in month view (not simply complete months)

    How can I Print the next 4 or 5 weeks from iCal in month view (not simply complete months).
    I'd like to print the next (up an coming) weeks of my calendar from iCal in month view - The idea is to get this information on 1 sheet of A4.. just like the month view.. but as far as i can see the month view only gives you current or next complete months.. The ONLY time this give me the view I want is in the first week of any given month.. the rest of the month part of the print is in the past and not enough of the up and coming weeks are shown?
    I can believe  the app won't allow you to do this .. am I missing an easy fix.. or has it been rectified in Yosemite .. I'm using mavericks 10.9.5.
    Thanks

    Hope this helps.

  • In the slide show view how can you pin the "next" Arrow to the ultimate edge so it is in the same place as the full screen image, it will pin to the left edge but not the right.

    In the slide show view how can you pin the "next" Arrow to the ultimate edge so it is in the same place as the full screen image, it will pin to the left edge but not the right.

    Hello,
    Please make sure that the next button is pinned to the right side as there in the attached image.
    If it is already pinned, you can try removing any embedded HTML code and checking it.

  • How can i select the next column instead of next row when press enter key

    I need to know how can i select the next column instead of next row when i press the enter key.By default ,when i press enter key the next row is selected and the column remain unchanged but I wants opposite that is the row should remain unchanged but column index will changed.
    Thanks to all.

    Well, the right arrow key will already move you to the next column, so the easiest way to do this is to modify the InputMap to have the Enter key invoke the same Action as the right arrow key.
    You can search the forum for my "Table Actions" (without the space) example that will show you how to do this.
