Greetings,
I am unsure of the documentation that might contain the answers to this question, so I hope for a bit of initial guidance. I want to be able to record button presses along-side the time-code of a particular video, and the time of the event, or button-press.
I’ve been searching for terms like “record events”, “record actions”, “capture button press”, but I’m not coming back with anything substantial.
I assume this is possible. Any insight is appreciated.
I think if you use the roVideoPlayer to do your playback, you should be able to record button presses from the message port for your roImageCanvas. You would create an roTimeSpan object and mark() at the start of play event, each time you get a button press, you could push the time and button number into an array variable.
Is roImageCanvas a requirement of capturing button presses? Is the roVideoScreen incapable of handling it on its own, with its own roMessagePort?

You might try experimenting with roVideoScreen’s isPaused() and isResumed() events. They won’t get you every single button press, but they will tell you when trick play begins and ends.
