Hi!
I do want to skip in a movie to different positions and fade sound files in and out at the same time.
The movie has to stay in presentation mode all the time.
In my script the movie does not jump forward.
Can anybody hlep me?
Here is my script:
tell application "QuickTime Player"
open file "Mac OS X:Users:rainerwarrings:Desktop:RYS08_DSCHUNGEL_FINAL:RYS08_RAUM1_FINAL:RYS08_1_FINAL.MOV"
open file "Mac OS X:Users:rainerwarrings:Desktop:RYS08_DSCHUNGEL_FINAL:RYS08_AUDIO_FINAL:Raum1:AIFF:3_laufen.AIF"
open file "Mac OS X:Users:rainerwarrings:Desktop:RYS08_DSCHUNGEL_FINAL:RYS08_AUDIO_FINAL:Raum1:AIFF:4_schwarzesLoch1.AIF"
tell document 1
set current time to 0
set sound volume to 0
play
set sound volume to 256
end tell
tell document 3
set pointX to current time
set current time to 9471
play
end tell
set vol2start to 256
repeat with volChange from 0 to 256 by 32
set vol2 to vol2start + (volChange * -1)
delay 0.1
tell document 2 to set sound volume to vol2
end repeat
tell document 2 to stop
end tell
on my machine everything works fine as expected, maybe it could help to reference the documents directly.
I also optimized the repeat loop for decreasing the sound volume
set baseFolder to ((path to desktop as text) & "RYS08_DSCHUNGEL_FINAL:")
tell application "QuickTime Player"
set theMovie to item 1 of (open file (baseFolder & "RYS08_RAUM1_FINAL:RYS08_1_FINAL.MOV"))
set Audio1 to item 1 of (open file (baseFolder & "RYS08_AUDIO_FINAL:Raum1:AIFF:3_laufen.AIF"))
set Audio2 to item 1 of (open file (baseFolder & "RYS08_AUDIO_FINAL:Raum1:AIFF:4_schwarzesLoch1.AIF"))
tell Audio2
set current time to 0
set sound volume to 0
play
set sound volume to 256
end tell
tell theMovie
set pointX to current time
set current time to 9471
play
end tell
repeat with volChange from 256 to 0 by -32
delay 0.1
tell Audio1 to set sound volume to volChange
end repeat
tell Audio1 to stop
end tell
Hi Stefan!
Thanks for your help and quick reply.
I tried to use your modified script but I got an error answer:
“Could not open the movie” and “part of expression (item 1) has no result”
When I open a file in QuickTime Player, the result is a list.
Therefore I included item 1 of
You can also omit file like these lines.
If it doesn’t work, try to delete item 1 of
.
set theMovie to item 1 of (open baseFolder & "RYS08_RAUM1_FINAL:RYS08_1_FINAL.MOV")
set Audio1 to item 1 of (open baseFolder & "RYS08_AUDIO_FINAL:Raum1:AIFF:3_laufen.AIF")
set Audio2 to item 1 of (open baseFolder & "RYS08_AUDIO_FINAL:Raum1:AIFF:4_schwarzesLoch1.AIF")
