NAME

target_seek - Request a change playback or presentation position for a frameserver.

SYNOPSIS

nil
target_seek( vid:tgt, number:step )
target_seek( vid:tgt, number:step, bool:relative )
target_seek( vid:tgt, number:step, bool:relative )
target_seek( vid:tgt, number:step, bool:relative, bool:time )
target_seek( vid:tgt, number:step, bool:relative, bool:time=false )
target_seek( vid:tgt, number:step, bool:relative, bool:time=false, number:xaxis )
target_seek( vid:tgt, number:step, bool:relative, bool:time=false, number:xaxis, number:zaxis )

DESCRIPTION

Request an absolute or relative step sized change in active content position in either time or space. Frameservers communicate this capability and the meaning of the ranges through the 'content_state' event. This feature can be used to implement things like scrollbars, as well as client side defined UI 'scaling'. If seeking in time (default), the relative (default) step is expected to be an offset in miliseconds. If setting an absolute time position, the absolute step is floating point in the 0..1 range. If seeking in space (panning) the relative (default) is in a discrete +- steps on a target defined scale. Absolute seeking is a float in the 0..1 range from start (0) to end (1). The zaxis axis is a hint on magnification where, the absolute value will treat 1 as normal scale, < 1 as minification and > 1 as magnification. The boolean arguments relative and time has constants defined as SEEK_SPACE | SEEK_TIME and SEEK_ABSOLUTE | SEEK_RELATIVE .

EXAMPLE

function target_seek0()


      vid = launch_avfeed("file=test.mkv", "",


            function(source, status)


                  if status.kind == "resized" then


                        show_image(source)


                        resize_image(source, status.width, status.height)


                  end


            end


      )


      target_seek(vid, 100) -- seek +100ms
end

EXAMPLE

function target_seek1()


      vid = launch_avfeed("file=test.mkv", "",


            function(source, status)


                  if status.kind == "resized" then


                        show_image(source)


                        resize_image(source, status.width, status.height)


                  end


            end


      )
end
function main_clock_pulse()


      target_seek(vid, 1, SEEK_RELATIVE, SEEK_SPACE, 1) -- dx,dy += 1 every tick
end
end

EXAMPLE

function target_seek2()


      vid = launch_avfeed("file=test.mkv", "",


            function(source, status)


                  if status.kind == "resized" then


                        show_image(source)


                        resize_image(source, status.width, status.height)


                  end


            end


      )
end
function main_clock_pulse()


      target_seek(vid, 0, SEEK_ABSOLUTE, SEEK_SPACE, 0, math.random(0.1, 3)) -- randomized zoom each tick
end
