        It's all OSC based. So create a track and make sure the ports match. I will try and do a screen grab a some point but it's pretty straight forward once you get the hang of it.

                  You can also use my TimerTool to get the timecode of a movie.

                      Dear All,

                      Yet another option: create a QuickTime Text Track movie with your triggers. Take a look at this text:
                      {QTtext}
                      {font:Arial}
                      {bold}
                      {size:12}
                      {textColor: 65535, 65535, 65535}
                      {backColor: 0, 0, 0}
                      {timeScale:30}
                      {width:320}{height:240}
                      {timeStamps:absolute}
                      {language:0}
                      {textEncoding:0}
                      {keyedText: off}
                      [00:00:00.00]
                      One = 00:00:00
                      [00:00:02.15]
                      Two = 00:02:15
                      [00:00:03.00]
                      Three = 00:03:00
                      [00:00:04.00]
                      Four = 00:04:00
                      [00:00:04.00]
                      Five = 00:05:00
                      [00:00:05.00]
                      If you save the above to a .txt file, you can open it in QuickTime Player 7 and save it as a .mov. Note that the timescale parameters here is 30, meaning 30 fps. If you want to use 25 fps, you should change this parameter. The last two digits of the times in brackets (i.e., the numbers after the decimal point) is the frame number.
                      Try the following:
                      1. open .txt file in QuickTime Player 7
                      2. save the resulting movies so that it has a .mov extension.

                      Then in Isadora

                      1. import the resulting .mov
                      2. add a movie player
                      3. double-click the "eye" icon at the top left of the movie player
                      4. make the 'text track' input and the 'text out' output visible, and click OK
                      5. set the 'text track' input to 1
                      6. set the 'movie' input to the movie imported in step 3
                      You will see the text between the time markers above sent to the output at precisely the right moment. Now, if you were replace the text I used here, e.g., Five = 00:05:00 with simple numbers like 1, 2, 3, etc., you could use a Text Parser actor to covert the text output into numbers that could be sent to a comparator, or a Selector or Router actor, etc.
                      It is possible to embed these text tracks in a normal movie, i.e., to add them in addition to the video. This will however force Isadora to use QuickTime to play the movie, which will lead to less than stellar performance for H264, MP4, etc.
                      But what you can do is start this movie and the main clip you want to associate with it at the same time. I would expect there to be little (if any) drift over time.
                      Best Wishes,
                      Mark
