I'm trying to figure out the address for the in/out playhead markers, but can't seem to find them.
do they exist?

The in and outpoint will be set when you send 3 floats to the /activeclip/video/position/values address.

So, for instance,

/activeclip/video/position/values 0.25 0.5 0.75

will set the in point to 1/4th of the timeline, the playhead itself halfway, and the outpoint on 3/4ths.

Before you ask, yes, this does require you to know the playhead value as well, which is silly.

Ticket #6632 "setting in point and outpoint of the timeline via OSC as part of a three value message including the playhead is silly"

ok, thanks
and can I query the current state,or is it sent on activeClip selection?

From the top of my head, I think you get playhead messages for each clip in a layer, the clip in the active layer and the active clip.

To be honest, I'm not sure if and when the in and out points states get sent.

Looks like they're not

when selecting a clip I get the correct playhead position, but it seems to be a single float.

I assume there is no way I could send a bogus value to the parameter I don't want to overwrite.
for example I only want to update the in point, but know the playhead position, and don't want to affect the Out point, I could send { 0.25f, 0.5f, -1f } where -1f would be invalid. thus not processed.
-1f doesn't work by the way, it sets the out point to the in point - minimum available position.

All these are reasons why the three value approach is silly.
