We are struggling a lot with [jit.movie~] since 2 days.

We are using it for hap (or viddll, same problem)

It seems that if you change loop points, if you load a new video, considering cache_size / loadram or not, sometimes (!) the player stop playing new frame (but it still pops out a frame), then at the end of current loop, it restarts at the loopstart and plays... until another moment when it does the same.

Other info: if when it seems stuck you do a stop followed by a play, it shows new frames since 2 or 3s then stuck.

That problem doesn't occur by using [jit.movie] at all.

BUT we need the sound within Max (before the dac I mean) and spigot is not more an option.

which version of viddll are you using? there's some problems with the latest 1.0.9 (released via the Package Manager) that have been fixed for the next 7.3.4.

give the 7.3.4 update a try (should be available later today), and let me know if it's still stalling out.

downloading it (that's slow) and checking that !

i recently had this same issue with [jit.movie] on computers with no audio output device configured on Windows 10. At least i think that was the issue, because these two computers weren't letting me set an audio output in the system settings, whereas other computers that had an audio output had none of these stops after 2-3 seconds. I was using viddll 1.0.9. Dropping back to 1.0.7 (and maybe also manually driving frames with a metro+counter) fixed it for me. Excited to check out 1.1.0.

Flawless and okay with jit.movie or jit.movie~

That update JUST the same day we were discovering that limiting problem in that art in residence moment was just like.... A miracle ❤

Hello, when i found out jit.movie~ i was so enthusiastic but now I am so disappointed. I followed all instructions above, updated Max, installed package Viddll but no miracle for me, at the opposite it seems rather worse. Thanks. M

viddll has some problems with audio playback in certain situations (both jit.movie~ and jit.movie). i will be working on that for the next update.

if you'd like to be more specific about the problems you are experiencing, beyond the lack of miracles, then it will probably help me in getting it fixed.

Thanks for your help. Using the previous version of viddll clicks terribly, the actual version clicks and one only channel works ( the 0). After the upgrading not only jit.movie~ but jit.movie also gives the same problems.

- to play video and sound directly from url

- to have sound output directly form audio card and not internal sound

- to open the patches on the PC Windows 10 tablets and Mac / PC computers or laptops

For these reasons we tried two solutions :

Conclusion - there are not solution (or we didn't find) to do it...... (play video & audio from url and sound output to sound card) !!!

- viddl engine - in any combination audio produce the glitches => unusable

- qt engine - there are no glitches when play from local hard disk, but produce glitches from url => unusable

when you try read the url with jit.movie & spigot~ :

- from local hard disk there is video output & audio output (audio is OK)

- from url only video is playing - for audio your receive error :

jit.movie: movie is not a disk file (strange that video is playing.....???)

when you try to read the url with jit.movie~ :

- from local hard disk video output is OK / audio output produce glitches

- from url video output is OK / audio output produce glitches

Is there any hope to play sound from url whit max on the external sound card ?

Hi all,
maybe our observations could be useful?

for our project we need:
- to play video and sound directly from url
- to have sound output directly form audio card and not internal sound
- to open the patches on the PC Windows 10 tablets and Mac / PC computers or laptops

For these reasons we tried two solutions :
1 -jit.movie & spigot~
2 - jit.movie

with two video engines :
1 -viddll
2 - qt

with two Max versions :
1 - 7.3.3
2 - 7.3.4

with two versions of viddll engine :
1 -  viddll.engine version: 1.0.7
2 -  viddll.engine version: 1.1.3


Here are the problems :
- viddl engine -  in any combination audio produce the glitches => unusable
- qt engine - there are no glitches  when play from local hard disk, but produce glitches from url => unusable

when you try read the url with jit.movie & spigot~ :
- from local hard disk there is video output & audio output (audio is OK)
- from url only video  is playing - for audio your receive error :
jit.movie: movie is not a disk file (strange that video is playing.....???)

when you try to read the url with jit.movie~ :
- from local hard disk video output is OK / audio output produce glitches
- from url video output is OK / audio output produce glitches

jit.movie~ seems to have a bug compared to jit.movie
