Syphoner/CamTwist alternatives
Hey, I'm looking to capture a livestream from my web browser (Chrome on a Mac 10.12.6) into Max, then in OBS use the video capture or window capture source to stream to Twitch. I'm going through Max for effects and dynamic masking. Is there a more efficient process for getting live streams into max than using Syphoner and Camtwist?
With this, audio processing and two jit.poke objects going into a matrix, I'm finding many frames dropped and the latency/consistency way too much on my CPU. I've tried getting into outputting textures, but I believe Syphoner and Camtwist both are built around matrices.
Any help is appreciated.
Why do you need to use Camtwist?
Browser - Max (using Syphoner)
Process in Max in texture domain
Max - OBS (using Syphon)
I found camtwist to be better at capturing frames in OBS when it was reading the jit.world window.
To process syphon using the texture domain, would I do this?
delete the jit.gl.render object,
draw the jit.gl.videoplane to a jit.world
deleting the jit.window
delete the qmetro
I think this would do it:
Good luck!
Thank you. This works perfectly and is equally instructive. There are concepts in here of how textures function that I haven't been able to glean from other hep files/tutorials.
you are much appreciated!
