Play a Player Backwards

The player is controlled by the 'playRate'; so a playRate of 1 is forward playback at normal speed, and a playRate of -1 is reverse playback at normal speed.

My kids have had a lot of fun here, messing around with slo-mo (playback speeds of 0.5 and 0.25) and so on. Slo-Mo is extremely useful if you are going for a frame capture.

If you have a player called "VCR" you will set the playrate as follows:

set the playRate of player "VCR" to -1

you will then get reverse playback!

sincerely, Richmond Mathewson
