Anyone know how to set up pauses on animation controllers without affecting a video clip?

I've got an animation that I've set up a 3 point loop on, but I also want to set up text that animates on with pauses.

If I add a pause event in scene director it also pauses the animated background.

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately any event will affect every track on the scene director. Is it possible to run the clip as an autostart clip from the material manager? or is does the 3 point lop make that impossible?

Another solution would be to remove the animation controller from the scene director then assign script events to the keyboard map that play the animation controller with a specific key stroke. This may be more complicated for the operator however.

Andrew ... Thanks, any idea what a script would look like that uses a different key to trigger these?

Since we're only using the + key for playback I think we can get away with using one more key in these situations.

I can always set it up withouth the animation but we bought a graphics package that does the animation, I'd like to use it.

Thanks for the reply, and any further help you can provide.
