I am trying to use router to traffic gl data around but the gl objects seem to pass updates even when not receiving bangs... I think the below patch explains better.

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? Why is the jit.gl.slab still sending to the jit.gl.videoplane when they arent connected? How is the videoplane binded to the slab when itself isnt being updated?

this kinda works but the shader gets screwed.

don't ask me why, but it seems to work if you add @colormode uyvy to your videoplane...

gl objects will remember the last texture applied, until you tell them otherwise. so generally, you only need to bang a slab object once to make it send its texture to a gl object.

if you want to disconnect the gl object from the last texture you sent, you can set the @texture attribute to nothing, by sending the message texture with no arguments.

depending on the circumstances, you may have to set the color attribute to 0 0 0 0, if you want it to go black, and then back to 1 1 1 1 when a new texture gets sent.

in this case, might be easiest to just send an all black matrix as the new texture.
