How to trigger video texture to play using maintee?

[anonymous_user_2bd0f2d71 (anonymous_user_2bd0f2d7)]

Hello,
I have a scene and I want to be able to get a media player texture to play at a certain time on the maintee editor? How am I able to do this? Do I have to create an event then trigger it in maintee, if so, how do I do that?

Thanks.

In matinee, add an event track:

Then, give it a name (Explode at this example) and length:

Now at the level blueprint, you can add a controller for the matinee actor from the right click menu:

This will result you a node with a finished execution pen for Matinee, and another pen for the Event Track (called explode at this example). And if you have more event, you’ll have more pins named with their names:

Now connect whatever logic needed to play the movie with the event track execution.
