Max/MSP/Jitter project on youtube

Wow, those are great! There's so much potential with this program. I like trying to see what effects you used, I recognized some of them but not all.

Were you applying the videos to a GL shape, or just a standard qt.movie? If you use them as a texture on a GL gridshape you can get away from the traditional flat display, and "project" them onto spheres, cylinders, cubes, or other 3D models you can make in 3D apps and save as .obj. Very cool, though it will eat considerably more CPU.

Besides that, here is an effect you may want to try. I found the idea here on the forum and it's proven very useful. Basically it uses jit.xfade to fade a single video with a delayed version of itself... like the video equivalent of delay or reverb. It can really help smooth out choppy transitions, should one want, or just to add a cool smearing or flowing effect. A simple example patch is below. Note that you must have a speedlim in there for it to work (jit.xfade will not hook back into itself).

Thanks to the original person who posted this, I don't recall who it was... --CJ
