Description movie plays the movie defined by a matrix whose columns are movie frames
(usually produced by getframe).
movie(M) plays the movie in matrix M once.
movie
movie(M,n) plays the movie n times. If n is negative, each cycle is shown
forward then backward. If n is a vector, the first element is the number of times
to play the movie, and the remaining elements make up a list of frames to play
in the movie.
For example, if M has four frames then n = [10 4 4 2 1] plays the movie ten
times, and the movie consists of frame 4 followed by frame 4 again, followed by
frame 2 and finally frame 1.
movie(M,n,fps) plays the movie at fps frames per second. The default is 12
frames per second. Computers that cannot achieve the specified speed play as
fast as possible.
movie(h,...) plays the movie centered in the figure or axes identified by the
handle h.
movie(h,M,n,fps,loc) specifies a four-element location vector, [x y 0 0],
where the lower left corner of the movie frame is anchored (only the first two
elements in the vector are used). The location is relative to the lower left corner
of the figure or axes specified by handle h and in units of pixels, regardless of
the object’s Units property.
Remarks The movie function displays each frame as it loads the data into memory, and
then plays the movie. This eliminates long delays with a blank screen when you
load a memory-intensive movie. The movie’s load cycle is not considered one of
the movie repetitions.
