You can do this in numerous ways, but the general idea is that you will need to composite a clean channel of video with the processed video, using some sort of alpha channel generation. If you have a patch that shows what you are trying to do, we can probably help you get it going.</p> <p>Best,<br /> Andrew B. </p> http://cycling74.com/forums/topic.php?id=25402#post-127590 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 23:12:16 +0000 Jesse 127590@http://cycling74.com/forums/ <p>Use OSC or just plain UDP to send control messages to/from Max as needed. If your application needs to receive the audio output of Max then use SoundFlower to do routing of the synthesized Max audio.
