Script single button to play frames, then skip some, and continue play?

Just as the topic says, I want to script a button to go to
and play through a motion tween, but then skip some frames to then
play another motion tween all in one button press. For example,
play frame 1 which plays the tween and ends at frame 10 (I have
that part down fine) but then for it to skip ahead to continue to
play frame 20 and then of course stop once it finishes that motion
tween.
Tried a few searches but its too many words to explain so I
wasnt finding anything. Its probably a simple command im just not
familiar with yet. Can anyone help?

I probably should have been more specific. I cant add
anything to the timeline because I have multiple buttons using the
first tween, which is a fade out. Thats why I need a script to add
to each button only to play through that first common tween, and
then skip to play an individual tween set for each button. Like
button 1 goes through the first common tween, a fade out (plays
frames 41 - 53) and its individual tween is frames 54 - 66. This
works fine of course because the tweens are next to each other.
Button 2's individual tween starts on frame 67, so it needs to play
through the common tween fade (41 - 53) skip Button 1's frames, and
continue play on 67. These buttons are located on frame 1 (main
menu) so is it even possible to script a button to do such a thing?
I figured there would be but nothing im trying or seeing online is
working. Heh... does this make sense? :o
The only other way I know it will work is if I copy and paste
all the information in the layers before each section but that
causes me to have to push a lot of information further down the
timeline, kinda making a big mess and causing me to rescript all
frames there.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • "Can't open file; skipping it and continuing" Part2

    I am also having a problem with iMovie 3 not being able to import my dv clip. The clip in it's entirety is about 15 minutes long, way past the 9 minute minimum. When I open the move project containing that clip it only imports the first 1.5 minutes, when I import it I get and error of -40, and knowing that it plays the entire 15+ minutes as qt movie I try to drag the clip into the time frame and get "Can't open file; skipping it and continuing". The clip works fine in iMovie HD at my computer at work. Can I try to splice the clip into smaller clips and exporting to use it at home?

    is there a way to start a video on my ipad 2 pause and continue playing on same video so i do have to start another video

    In I movie, load the player with your clip.  Play it until the frame you want is in the viewing window.  Then take a screen shot and the whole screen wil be captured and placed in the camera roll.  You can then crop it down to just the picture, or portion of the picture you want.

  • AE CS5 (10.0.1.19) Ram Preview - Audio stops and continue playing randomly

    I already reported this issue to Adobe as a BUG but I want to ask here if somebody else have this problem or can confirm it.
    Audio breaks/stops and continue playing randomly when 'Ram Previewing'
    It happens mostly when the RAM is fully filled up with image cache files! When the Ram is not filled up totally with image cache files it happens rarely!
    Steps to reproduce BUG / issue:
    1. create a new composition with a length of for example 5 minutes.
    2. create a new solid with size of 50x50 pixel and animate the position of the solid for a very long time so when ram previewing the whole ram/memory gets filled up with different image cache data (this is very important!). Alternatively you could use a long video file to fill up the RAM completely.
    3. import a wave file .wav 16bit 48khz uncompressed which is very long for example 5 minutes.
    4. insert the wave file in the earlier created composition which contain the animated solid or video file.
    5. Set the work area bar (preview range) for the whole composition.
    'Ram Preview' the composition until the whole RAM/memory is filled up with image data.
    AE has to stop rendering because there is no more space available in RAM.
    make sure 'from current time' checkbox is off.
    6. listen to the audio which stops playing randomly for about 1-2 seconds and comes back and continues playing (***BUG***)
    7. Now set the right handle of the composition work area bar (preview range) to less then the maximum RAM size
    (less then the green cache indicator on the right side)
    8. "Purge image caches" or "Purge All"
    9. Ram preview the now smaller work area
    10. listen to the audio. The audio breaks are gone! (***Workaround***)
    Additional information:
    I have the latest After Effects CS5 update installed (10.0.1.19)
    This behavior is tested with different audio drivers inside After Effects CS5 (After Effects WDM Sound, Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver,  ASIO DirectX Full Duplex Driver)
    I also tried different Sample Sizes Buffers (alternatively to the default 2048 samples) but without success.
    Reducing the amount of RAM which After Effects can access didn't solve the problem!
    System:
    Win7 64bit all latest Updates, 8GB RAM, CPU: intel Core 2 Extreme QX9300, nVidia Quadro FX 2700M, IDT High Definition Audio Driver v6.10.0.6227
    There is no driver problem on my system because After Effects CS3 & CS4, Premiere & Soundbooth CS3 CS4 CS5 have no audio problems!
    I have lots of other professional audio software like Steinberg Cubase 5.... on the same system and they all work fine.
    I also turned off AVG Anitivirus and Windows firewall for testing without success.
    AdobeQT32Server.exe, dynamiclinkmanager.exe, PProHeadless.exe, afterfx.exe do not get blocked by firewall they have full permission.
    The CS5 Production Premium installation went fine and without errors and antivirus protection was turned off for the installation.
    Any help would be nice!

    Yep, I agree with craulmedia....
    It's 1 month ago after my initial post and no valuable feedback from Adobe although I filled out the bug report in addition to this post and provide my email for further information.
    The only reason for upgrading from CS4 -> CS5 production suite was the use of all my 8GB RAM in AE and now AE can use it but when it's using it the audio have issues.
    CS5 is on the market for nearly a year and still have such essential issues... And my fear rises there will be no valuable update fixing these issues but instead Adobe forces me to upgrade later this year to CS6 in hope something change...
    I have had support request for different Adobe products in the past including telephone support, web support via Adobe ID... none with success the web support answered my request 3 weeks later with the message they will look into it... time went by and in the end the result was "Yes we know it's a known bug" the bug did not get fixed for that CS version. it even exists in the next major CS release! (talking about EncoreDVD here). Once the web support answered weeks later when I was in holidays and after some days I was not able to respond they closed my case. I reopened the case but never got an answer! Telephone support is nearly waste of time because in 95% of all cases it does not help to reinstall the whole operating system and talking to people who know less about computers in general or Adobe products then my mom - it's a waste of time.
    I don't want to blame here anybody for things happend in the past I just want to point out that this time I choose an other support channel (bug report and forum post) but it seems that this support channel is also a waste of time after 1 month with no valueable feedback!
    I bumped up this post 2 times and thanks to craulmedia for the third time.
    And now here is my fourth time *BUMP*
    All I got so far is: "I saw your bug report it's in the queue"
    Is it still in the queue? which queue nr. does it have? how long will it take to get any answer? is it reproducible? Is it confirmed as a known bug by Adobe? Is Adobe working on a fix? When will this fix be available? Is the fix provided in form of an update or in the next major release?
    OK, I know this is a user to user forum and Adobe people only stop by in their free time and there is no guarantee for any real support.
    But it started out so good in the first time...
    Last 2 things I want to add here:
    1. Why should I provide my email in the bug report? Sure so Adobe can get back to me for further information... but wouldn't it be nice if Adobe would be so kind to give some status report to that given email as a small present for the enthusiastic beta testers ?
    2. please Adobe take a look at www.uservoice.com already Autodesk started to move there with 3ds Max.

  • Skips songs and doesnt play them all... HELP!

    When I turn my ipod on and push shuffle songs, it skips songs by itself and only plays certain songs. I know they work because I have played these songs on there before, this problem just started a day or so ago. Also when I try to turn off the ipod, it takes a lot longer then it should to turn off. Does anyone have any suggestions or anything to help me?? This is a fairly new ipod, only got it about a month and a half ago.

    The iPod mini was discontinued over a year ago...in Sept. 2005 if I recall correctly. So if you got it in brand-new condition more recently than that, it's probably a different model (in which case you shold go to the respective forum where you might have more luck). Or, is it perhaps are used or refurbished iPod mini?
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61688
    I know some people who are new to iPods mix up the mini and the nano.
    And, by any chance, are the skipped songs ones that you purchased off of iTunes? I've heard that can happen.

  • My iPhone 4s music library is glitchy... skipping some songs, stops playing others... ideas?

    Since upgrading to an iPhone 4s, I have noticed some strange behavior from my music player.  Nearly every time I play music for more than 20-30 minutes, something will happen and a song will suddenly skip or just stop playing altogther.  It is extremely weird.  It will physically not allow me to back up to the song that skipped, or start it over. 
    This is not a permissions issue, everything is fine on that end.  It is almost always when shuffling my music, although tonight when I noticed it happen to a particular song, I tried to play it buy selecting the exact song (and then album) and it would still not play.  Tried it on my iTunes library on my MBP immediately after and it played just fine.
    I have seen very old discussions about AAC format.  Nearly 100% of my music is AAC (the particular song tonight is even one purchased from iTunes), and my library has never had any issues like this before, including my old iPhone 4 or any of the numerous iPods, iPads and computers that I've run. 
    Is anyone else experiencing anything like this?
    Suggestions?

    Ok, I have been here and found an answer....
    Assuming you are steaming using Bluetooth and the problem only started after updating to IOS6.... ?
    I stream to a good hifi system so my answer is only related if you are steaming to a Bluetooth adapter or a
    Bluetooth enabled system
    And also...
    If you are using Bluetooth & ios6....+ here is an answer I got ...
    Many producers of Bluetooth adapters etc.... Use bt2.1 and state compatible with bt4.
    Trouble is, bt4 wasn't around at the time so they assumed compatibility.
    Now.... From IOS6.... Apple upgraded to bt4, gives better Bluetooth connectivity so they are delivering added benefit.
    A lot of older bt adapters have firmware bugs with bt4.
    I contacted my supplier who wouldn't agree but threatened legal action if I was to publish...
    Can't of ford the fight so... Sold my bt receiver on eBay and bought an apple airport express.
    Problem solved and also, i got a better quality of music.
    Remember you do need wifi to use the airport express but who hasn't got that these days ?
    One last point...
    if you are streaming to a decent hifi system and choose to do go down the airport express route
    The mini adapter.... Headphone out socket on the airport express is also a mini toslink socket...
    So, if you want to get the best from your music (limited by iTunes of course) you can use the toslink optical digital output .
    Then you get into Dacs etc and start spending more n more...
    Hope this helps

  • HT5642 my ipod touch 5th gen is not recognized since I tried to update ios. It says it is in recovery mode but it just keeps looping back to recovery mode. I tried holging power button for 3 sec. then both home and power for 10 sec then home button for 20

    My ipod touch 5th generation went into recovery mode when I tried to update ios. When I try to recover it just keeps looping back to recovery mode. I tried to hold the power button for 3 secs. then simultaneously hold the home button for 10 secs. then hold only power button for 20 secs. I tried this several times to no avail. This is my daughter's ipod. I am computer illiterate and I'm not sure what else to try.

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .

  • I downloaded the Avatar soundtrack, but certain songs play halfway then just cut, and play the next track...how can I get a refund or re-download?

    I downloaded the Avatar soundtrack and in the downloads sections, all music downloaded to complete, yes more than half the tracks play halfway then just cut out and play the next track...it's awful...how can I resolve this??

    I THINK I have solved the problem. Can't be 100% because I don't want to try a restore. At least the Apple home page lites up correctly with quicktime now. It hadn't in the past.

  • Why IPod skips songs and ITunes plays them

    I loaded the songs from CD and have played them several times over 2 or 3 years.  Recently, I tried to play them on my IPod Classic and they just skip to the next track.  I have restored my IPod and reloaded it.  Still, the songs won't play.

    Is it only a particular group or tracks or just any of your tracks loaded from CD at random?
    It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive.  I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread.  He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

  • Shuffle and continuous play

    I obviously don't understand how ATV2 using Home sharing works.  I have my ATV2 setup to share my iMac's iTunes Library. It shows up fine on the ATV2. What I have not been able to figure out is 2 things:
    1. How do I get a the ATV2 to continuous play everything in an album?  For the life of me Ican't figure it out?
    2. How do I use "Shuffle"  it appears to always be on (arrows are crossed?) Can you turn it off?   When I select shuffle withthe remote it starts to play one song but then stops (even though are more songs in the album, genre,etc.)  What am I doing wrong?
    I'm feeling pretty dumb about this thing?

    Got it. Ihad unchecked all the Holiday Music so it wouldn't sync to my iPhone.  re-checked them and it's all good.
