Automate scene changes

[Paz]

Hi everyone,

I am creating an installation piece and I have created a number of scenes each playing a different video. I wish to automate the process of moving between scenes by telling Isadora to jump forward / backward a scene with a timing value, rather than a keyboard watcher / jump combination as there will not be an operator.

Thanks for the help!

Hello,

You can use timer/comparator/jump actors.

I send you a sample, you just need to divide the output of timer by 1000, it reads in second but the value is in millis.

Thanks Graham - I viewed this and it was most helpful. However it only appears to offer scene progression via Keyboard Watcher and Jump actors - which I guess requires an operator to be present?

I have had a go with Jacques method above and it works! 

Many thanks to both of you.

You're welcome.

For more advanced control you may want to look at duration:

Yes of course, I think Duration would be ideal.

Cheers!

i use enter scene trigger > trigger delay > jump works perfect

You can also use an envelope generator to set specific times.
