DiGiTaLFX

So I keep finding myself looking at other options to Max as I want to be able to make cross platform capable video creations. However I always come to the conclusion that Max rocks compared to all the other options, and then it kinda hit me as to why Processing, OpenFrameworks, Cinder, Pd etc appeal. They all seem to have libraries available that implement GStreamer support for video playback. Which got me thinking.

Would it be that hard to implement a "jit.gs.movie" object? It seems it would be a great way to have much expanded codec support on Windows as QuickTime pretty much sucks with regards to codec availability for good ol' win32.

Anyone else agree? Or capable of creating such a project?

gstreamer-support

Oooooh yes! I definitely agree. Capable of creating? Ehm, not really. :( I did find a java-interface but my java-noobness hasn't really allowed me to (yet).

although you could also just tell gst-launch to forward everything to max via rtsp and use jit.qt.movie afterall but it would be nice to start pipelines and stuff from within max (on win)
