BUG: Videos do not run entire duration when Duration is Infinite and End Movie Action is Terminate [30605]

This article applies to:

E-Prime 3.0

E-Prime 2.0

Symptoms

Videos may get cut off when the Duration of the E-Object is set to "Infinite" and End Movie Action is set to "Terminate".

Detail

The amount of time difference between playback duration and actual duration may vary depending on file type.

Workaround

Add extra frames to your video files. To stop the movie at a specific duration, specify the appropriate Stop Position value.

For example, if there are 3 Videos, an Attribute reference can be used for both the Filename and Stop Position properties. In the image below, VideoEndTime is an Attribute specified in the List object that contains the Stop Position.
