Movie Player speed greater than 2

[dbengali]

So sorry if this is a dumb question --

In the Movie Player actor, I am not able to set the speed greater than 2, even if I try to edit the Scale Min and Scale Max.  For the Classic Movie Player the speed can go to 10

How does one play back movies at a speed greater than 2 with the current Movie Player?

thanks

This is a limitation on Apple AVFoundtation that is the engine for GPU actors. Use Classic for higher speeds. With proper choice of video codec you get pretty good performance with Quicktime based actors as well.

Change the movie to "interactive' rather than 'performance' and it will switch to QT framework.

@Skulpture @dbengali

Well you are still limited to a min/max speed of -2 / 2.

@Michel - when did this happen? I thought it was only AV that was limited to speed.

[Skulpture]

In that case; change the speed to 0 and change the video speed using an envelope ++ actor using the position input.

@Skulpture - this happend when the new movie player with avfoundation was published.

@dbengali - Grahams suggestion will work best with a photojpg or apple pro res codec. And you will not have sound this way.

@dbengali - Grahams suggestion also works very well with HAP
