Freerunning time

Postby ov3r23 » Fri Mar 02, 2012 7:41 pm

I think it would be nice to see the time count of a movie, in the device tab, even when it is not locked to time.
It's useful to know how mutch time it will take to finish/loop, directors always ask for that!
Once I had the mistake to put a pause cue at the beginning of a movie in freerunning, at opacity 0, waiting for go.
Looking at the device tab everything was ok, opacity: 0, content loaded, time at 0, but the movie was running!
Only from the little icon on the timeline I discovered the different playback of the movie, but usually I refer to the device tab to control layers status during show.
I hope this is easy to make.

Thank you

Hi Marcello,

unfortunately it is not as easy to implement your request.
In opposition to the running timeline we have to get this state information out of the content and not from our own environment, which makes it way more complicated.

I think this request is already on the list. If not, I will add it to it and we will have a look into this.

Cheers
Markus
