Hi all, I'm working on my first jitter project, and would appreciate some guidance. I've put together a short film (~3 minutes) and I want to show it on a projector, but periodically add in live video captured on my webcam. I want the sound file for my film to continue to play, and the film to continue to play "in the background" while the screen is projecting live video capture.

Does anyone have any advice for this project? I bet it's been done a lot before, but I can't find any precedent. Right now I'm concerned about my frame-rate, as this all needs to happen in real-time. Any tips would be appreciated!

Hey does anyone have any ideas? My performance is planned for tomorrow morning!

Hi Jaren, you generally get more responses here if you post (part of) a patch and tell us what's the problem, what OS you are running on, which Max version and what you have tried.

That said, did you look at the Vizzie modules? You can mix a [jit.movie] and a Vizzie Grabbr using an xfadr module easily. If you route the laptop audio out to the PA mixer, you will hear the [jit.movie] at all times. Good luck with the performance!

Hey this patch is really helpful--thank you! That's good advice on bringing a patch to the forum before asking for help--I should've done this, and I'll remember to bring something to the table next time. thanks again!
