"Fire periodically" doesn't when time being modified by controller

Hi all

Just coming back to Vuo again and am hoping there’s a simple thing I’m missing here.

I’m wanting to use a MIDI controller to gradually but consistently modify the speed of images being selected from a folder. Thing is, as I’m slowly winding it up or down (changing the input value) the “Fire Periodically” node doesn’t fire. This is maybe to be expected, but is not ideal for doing slow, smooth builds.

Is there an alternative way here I’m missing?

Thanks!

Reworked and compiled as an FFGL, and it worked a treat mapped to a controller in Resolume

Great that you found a solution!

For future reference by anyone else who has a similar question, one way to do this is with Allow Periodic Events in place of Fire Periodically.
