jit.qt.record - video pauses for 500ms

Hi all,
when I record a video to disk with jit.qt.record,
everytime I send a write message to the object, the video pauses for roughly 500ms (I mean the video stream that I am sending to jit.window for example) -
is there a way to record video to disk without this interruption?

Thanks, Frank

jit.qt.record won't start recording until it receives the first frame.
so perhaps you will have better luck by placing a gate object before the input to qt.record, leave it closed, send the write message, then open the gate to start the recording.

that should eliminate the pause in the recording.
