Hey guys, I'm trying to write an expression and am a bit out of my depth. In short, I'm basically trying to replicate the function of the "Random - Split Clip" function in Particular if you're familiar, but just for a single layer.
In more detail: I'm trying to write an expression to be applied to the time remap property of a comp. This comp would be composed of a series of video clips, all exactly the same length. The input parameters would be a random seed, and the length of a single clip. The end result would be that the layer would loop a single clip in the series, chosen at random. If the layer were duplicated, each instance would play a different clip.
Any thoughts about how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance for any help!
Extra credit: Could I make this work even with clips that were uneven lengths? Perhaps by using layer markers or something? What about a version with an additional parameter for loop type (ping-pong etc).
