Output into max

Hi everybody,

i'm looking for a way to route the output image from a program like photoshop or something of the sort into max to then be able to route the output image into an area of a projection that i'll define, does anybody know of a virtual webcam software? or something that would work like one, being that the image would be of a program and not external?

i hope my question was clear,

Thanks in advance for your time

sounds like a job for jit.desktop

sorry i forgot to say i'd tried it, but i get a low frame rate making it hard to use, and since i still have to map the projection to the apropriate place it really isn't working, in an ideal world there would be a soundflower like thing but for video...

btw a newb question, is there a patch or an object that allows me to make simplish drawings in max?just choosing the thickness of the line and colour?

thanks anyway for your help

lcd would be the simplest. then of course there is jitter with jit.lcd, jit.gl.sketch and many more. If you just want a simple line start with lcd.
