I recently went down a Rabbit Hole of my own making after Mike Benke was discussing advancing a video 1 second at a time. I learned that I could get it to about 2.something seconds but not to 1.
If I had had a WAIT command I could have done it I am fairly certain.
Oh and how I got to 2.something seconds was 1. Created a Timer for 1 second, that was as low as I could go 2. On Completion of the Timer I Paused the Video and Reset the Timer with a second triggered shortcut 3. I then created a Shortcut "P" to Start the Video and that Shortcut triggered the Next Shortcut #4 4. Created a Shortcut to Start the Timer
You Hit the P Shortcut that triggers the timer and the timer plays and pauses the video at the end.
With the WAIT Command I would have Played the Video with one shortcut that would trigger a Wait Shortcut and that would Trigger a Pause Shortcut.
Thanks for checking this out.

Use scripts. The sleep command is your friend. Here is an example of use using an MOV as a stinger with adjusting the Sleep time for the cut point and then delay entry of a watermark during the replay. I NEVER use triggers anymore, I have shortcuts call scripts.
;ReplayIn Function=OverlayInputAllOff Function=OverlayInput4In&Input=ReplayIn Sleep 2000 Function=Cut&Input=ReplayX Function=OverlayInput3&Input=Watermark Sleep 2000 Function=OverlayInput4&Input=Telestrate
Good Luck, Steve

Scripting is not a feature available to everyone. I know several people have mentioned other ways to use the API to do this as well.
I was just looking to create a shortcut item that was WAIT since that currently does not exist at the highest level you need to use the API.
I understand there are workarounds or other ways to do this so this is typically not a good feature request as you can do it another way. Thanks again for checking this out.
