Subtitles (text) in jit.gl.videoplane.
Hello All:
Im very new to GL and am having trouble adding text. I would like to "Make my Own Subtitles" as it is in Jitter Tutorial #29, but I'm having trouble doing this in the patch that i have. Ideally, I would like the text to appear above the jit.grab image (or the video square on the bottom left). I would appreciate any help.
Thanks!!
here is the patch as it is now:

I recently made this to get some help with text as well.
Maybe we could team up ;) Just posted what I have in there as well. You should check it out, there are some things I struggled a bit to find out some days ago.
Here is what I did with your patch. You'll probably want to mix stuff around but it is a good start.
Does it work for you? Just curious...
WOW!!
yes. thank you so much! this is exactly what i was looking for. i am newish to max and this really cleared things up for me. thanks again!
you just want text overlaid on top of your scene? simply add a jit.gl.text and set the layer value higher than the videoplane layers of your scene (e.g. @layer 10)
Thank you, that's great! Is there ny way to make a jit.gl.text behave like the LCD where you can have words and even letters in the same window and different sizes colours and fonts?
