REQUEST: Ability to change AutoPilot duration

I'm creating a set where one layer will loop through a few stills, but the 5 second default transition time is far too short.

Would be great if this could be manually configured. Is there any way to do this at the moment? I don't mind editing XML settings files etc.

If not, could I put in a feature request for this?

Cheers
Richard

Also Sources can be used in auto pilot sequences. Although a Source doesn't have a set duration like a normal clip, you can change the duration in the clip tab.

This way you can use content that doesn't have a fixed duration like Flash files, Quartz Composer files or even live cameras in your sequence as well. By default sources are set to a duration of 5 seconds.
You might wonder where I have this information from... --> Resolume 4 Manual ;)

Funny that. I already R'ed the FM, even searching for AutoPilot, EVEN reading that very same section, but somehow I missed the clip duration setting sentence.

Thanks :oops:

Never mind - sometimes we senior members just miss essential sections of the manual, I know what I'm talking about ;-)

Hi all

I wrote a simple Quartz patch that gives you this control not only over stills and sources etc but also on clips, and it doesn't depend on the clip length..

I just posted elsewhere on the forum viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10013&p=38691#p38691
