I’ve had some issues with moviefilein and audiofilein that are meant to play a file being dynamically generated (api calls). sometimes the node gets the file path before the item is fully valid locally, so instead of playing the file it errors out. I’ve done some hacky run delay things, but i was wondering if there’s a recommended way to detect that a file is fully loaded, maybe a particularly dependable info chop channel? Any insight is appreciated
see the paragraph “Info CHOP channels” on documentation page of the Movie File In TOP
There are multiple channels you can use to see if it’s still loading, has loaded successfully, is busy opening, etc.
In your case I think you want the channel named “open”
