Description
Latest git on OS X 10.9, using nextFrame with update does not seem to update the frames.
Although if you switch the order of nextFrame and update it works. Am I missing something or is it an issue with the OS X video player?
Simple test app:
#include "ofMain.h"
class ofApp : public ofBaseApp
{
public:
void setup();
void update();
void draw();
ofVideoPlayer fingerMovie;
};
void ofApp::setup()
{
ofBackground(255,255,255);
fingerMovie.load("movies/fingers.mov");
fingerMovie.setLoopState(OF_LOOP_NORMAL);
fingerMovie.play();
fingerMovie.setPaused(true);
}
void ofApp::update()
{
fingerMovie.nextFrame();
fingerMovie.update();
}
void ofApp::draw()
{
ofSetHexColor(0xFFFFFF);
fingerMovie.draw(20,20);
ofSetHexColor(0x000000);
ofDrawBitmapString("frame: " + ofToString(fingerMovie.getCurrentFrame()) + "/" +
ofToString(fingerMovie.getTotalNumFrames()), 20, 380);
}

Research direction
Start with the provided sample app and reproduce the behavior in ofVideoPlayer's AVFoundation path, comparing nextFrame() followed by update() with the reversed order. Confirm whether the displayed frame and getCurrentFrame() advance as expected, then document or test the behavior once the correct update sequence is established.
