Director movie control
assumes sprite(1) is quicktime video sprite
could also be quicktime sound only movie


----------control speed
0 stops video
1 = normal forward
2 = double time
-1 = backwards etc

on mouseUp me
  sprite(1).movieRate = 1   
end

--------- control placement in time

movietime tells where you are in the video
duration tells how long
lists it in ticks (60ths of a second)
(currenttime tells where you are in milliseconds but cannot be set for video.  Best to use movietime)

to get the length, type this in message window
put sprite(1).duration

lingo can set it to any place in the movie
0 sets to the start
300 sets it to 5 seconds into the movie  (5x60)

on mouseUp me
  sprite(1).movietime = 0
end


------- put movietime in field "tester" when person clicks

attach script to movie sprite

on mouseUp
  put sprite(1).movietime into member "tester"
end

------------  activate event when qt movie in certain place

make another sprite appear when movie gets to a particular place
disappear when gets to a second place
put this in exitframe script and stretch to cover all the frames in sequence

it needs to test for a range of currentime because the director movie might miss the test at the precise moment the movietime is at a particular value
you could set these to activate any kind of event you wanted


on exitframe
 cur =sprite(1).movietime 
 if cur >  2000 and and cur < 2200 then 
   sprite(3).visible = true  -- make it appear
 end if

 if cur >  5000 and and cur < 5200 then
   sprite(3).visible = false  -- make it disappar
 end if

end

--------- control volume in qtmovie
255 is full volume

on mouseUp me
  -- set volume to half
  sprite(1).volume = 128
end
