Recording Output From Jit.Window

Hey guys! I recently started dabbling in Jitter, and I love it. I have a question that is most likely very noobish: How do I record the output coming from a jit.window as a movie (such a a quicktime player file). My idea was to have a collection of patches that do cool things, and I wanted to "interact" with my patches and save the output (in this case what I see in the jit.Window object) and record that as a simple little 3 - 5 second clip.

Thank you!

hi austin, please only paste patches to the forum using Copy Compressed.

to record the output of a GL scene, use jit.gl.asyncread to convert to a matrix, and jit.record to write to a file.

in case you using OSX another solution is Syphon Recorder > http://syphon.v002.info/recorder/ + jit.gl.syphonserver external
and if you in Max7, its easy as setting output_texture to 1 in jit.world...

in Windows, Fraps was the best application i found for recording....

I've tried Fraps and the video quality was often dreadful, very pixelated. I've since found Rob's jit.gl.asyncread solution to be the best option for Windows.
