Playback Rate Script

Ron Lucas wrote on 7/19/2003, 12:21 PM

Does anyone have a script that would allow me to click a video event, then activiate the script, which would make the playback rate .5 ? I do slow motion in my work with lots of tiny clips that I want to set the playback rate to ".5".

Thanks,
Ron

You can use the Velocity Wizard in Excalibur which, with 50 as the value, will change the clip to half speed and double the length of the clip to match the new rate.

I have actually made a script doing this but it's in VB and since it's a bit "buggy" yet I have'nt put it up on the web but if you want I can email it to you? It will let you select as many events as you like and press three different buttons "normal", "50%" and "reverse". the 50% would do it for you!

You will find my email adress at http://midihead.servehttp.com/

Infact you can use my ReverseEvents.vb script and just change the parameter -1 to 0.5 instead, that'll do it for you!

Just reviving this thread instead of starting a new one:

I'm looking for a script to change the playback rate of selected events.

OK, I got it. I downloaded the reverse event script, changed the -1 to .5 and changed all the "SonicFoundry" references to "Sony". Cool!
