This example lets you loop a movie, and jump to the beginning of the loop point by defining with a ‘looppoints’ attribute, and using ‘getloopstart’ to retrieve the loop’s starting time to be set to the time attribute for the jit.qt.movie object.
The imovie object displays a video within a single UI object in a Max patch. To detect when the movie has ended, use the getduration message to determine the movie's duration, then use the gettime message to monitor the current time of the video as it plays. In this example, we use the grab object to get the duration once and store it in other objects (select and >=).
A jit.movie or jit.qt.movie object doesn't automatically provide a notification when it reaches the end of a video. However, it's easy enough to obtain such a notification by checking to see when the video's current time becomes equal to its total duration.
