[PD] GEM Pause video

[Peter Plessas]

Hi,

pix_movie and pix_film have a right inlet to play frames manually. So a 
counter and a metro at 25fps could do the job by simply pausing the 
counter. You need no auto 1 message then.
Not sure if turning the gemhead off with a toggle will pause playback as 
well, or just disable rendering, but give it a try (if you want a black 
screen instead of a still movie frame).
