video information

Post by Da_Elf » Wed Aug 19, 2015 3:37 am

i would like to get information about a video. namely frame rate and length. However i dont really want to open the video but it seems thats the only way.
So lock screen, create player, open video, get information, then delete player and unlock screen. Unfortunately i still see the video flash on screen for a split second (the videos are all HD size)
is there any help i can get for this? i dont want to see the video

Hi Da_Elf,
Have you tried setting the loc to -10000, -10000?
