Hello,
I sometimes encounter messages "error: [pix_filmNEW]: unable to open file: (filename)" due to some unsupported codices in [pix_file], which is not that big a problem to me. But as I want to play a list of files in a row, is there a specific message on any outlet of [pix_film] associated with this error, similar to streams outputting a length a -1 at the second outlet, so that I can bang a new file to load?
hmm, i guess (haven't checked) that when [pix_film] fails to load the movie, it will not output anything at the info-output. you can use the absence of the message to detect the failure.
and of course you can just detect whether there is an image in the chain or not (use [pix_info] for that) and react accordingly.
but i like the first approach more.
