video/picture - artefacts in jit.window

kaboo's icon

Hello Everybody,
I did a patch with jit.qt.movie connected to jit.scissors and then to several jit.windows.
No matter which kind of movie-/picture format I load in qt.movie. I always get artefacts and bad quality.
See the attached picture.
If I connect the jit.window without a wire to qt.movie quality is o.k....
I use max on the latest macbook pro with also the latest quicktime version.
Has anybody a solution for this problem?

Cheers

It looks like maybe you have your resolutions set wrong or something. So, if you read a 640x480 mov and split it in 4 across the middle then you'd want to send it to 4 windows that are 320x240. Are you specifying resolutions that are correct in jit.qt.movie and in your jit.windows?

Also, I would use jit.submatrix instead of jit.scissors as it is a lot less expensive.
