<![CDATA[visible on/off video movie player]]>Hi I am trying to trigger a movie player/video via OSC but I need the visibility ON when its triggered with OSC, and once the video finish to have visibility OFF. At the moment my set up is this, but the video is stuck on visibility OFF therefore OSC has not control over it. Any suggestions please would much appreciated.

If you post your patch I can take a look inside it.

I want the video to be triggered only by OSC so when it goes to new scene the video is set OFF till OSC triggers it? thank you. L

The actor you are looking for is the Multi Blocker actor.

Here is another question and not sure if its possible - so if I have Osc trigger (the trigger is sent from Max Msp on allocated channel) thefore the sound triggers the toggle/video on and once Osc receive another trigger from Max it triggers toggle/video off/ - however I can set up that if it Osc trigger is too fast one after another it does ignore the trigger off? What actor would i use? I looked at gate actor but still no luck, perhaps timer actor? or any other suggestions? thank you. L

If you only ever need to turn it on, I agree with @vanakaru that a Trigger Value actor with a value of 1 is the way to go, (then there's no possibility of double-triggering and accidentally turning it off again.)
