Progress Report by Bruno Siu

I have been working on the interface functions on Max.

I have the main parts working, but there are a few problems I need to adjust.

Video trigger:

The above shows the trigger function, by clicking on the image the video will start and pause. The extra comments in the patch are research notes.

Problem: 

1. The video will constantly play in a loop and won't return to the beginning on the second click.

Audio Trigger:

Again by clicking on the image the audio will start playing. It will fade in at the beginning and fade out at the end to prevent 'clicks'.

Problem: 

1. It ignores the second click, therefore it can't be paused/stopped.
2. If the audio is still playing, a third click will force a fade out causing the audio to end abruptly. 

Journey (bottom part of screen 2):

The knob/dot will move automatically if the user answered correctly. It can move vertically, horizontal and with correct maths, diagonally.

Problem:

1. The imported picture will not fit the object, no matter what size I made it. This includes both background and knob/dot.

I already emailed Rob regarding the difficulties and awaiting his reply. 

I'm also looking at C74 forums, Max help-pages and 'try&error' for possible solution.
