un-blurry a jit.lcd text output (low resolution)
hi everybody ,
i'm looking for the way to get jit.lcd output only black or white (no grey) pixels , when in low resolution , such as 96x16 pixels.
if i use jit.> ,after a RGB2luma , i get an ugly result .
of course , i need a nice one ...
i think i need some kind of attribute , in jit.lcd ,to do so , but i didn't manage to find one .
here is a small patch :
Would you say there's no chance to find a way to "un-interpolate" jit.lcd's output (using text) ?
any idea ?
thanks by advance
Matthieu
i , for example , try "textmode" , with various values (1-->38),
the "imaging with quickdraw" in "inside mackintosh" document explains the differences between each presets ,
but i can't see any change in the output of the jit.lcd ...
should i ?

Hello Matthieu ,
Do you absolutely need it the been in CPU Jitter.
Here is a version with jit.gl.text
hi Phiol ,
thanks a lot .
I have to create matrixes on which text is written .
I am stucked in low resolutions , because i have to display these matrixes ,
on flip-dots displays (as on my avatar) .
their dimensions are 96x16 (not the ones on my avatar , but other ones) .
16 height , when converted from GL world (or even CPU if the dims are higher ) , is very hard to get clean .
many pixels are being anti-aliased (again !) ,
it’s the case on some letters ,not the others , and it also depends of their exact placement .
It seems very (very) hard to get something cool ,all along the word ,
simply always working , always clean .
I have found some fonts on the net , very pixelated , that could do the job ,
but i would like to see them , without anti-aliasing , directly out from , for example ,
jit.lcd .
they look great in gl.world , but not after being converted to low-res matrixes
my goal is :
i have to find a way to be able to improvise (which means no live parameter adjustings) ,
writing text on my displays . be able to write dozens of clean sentences , live .
And the way i feed them , is giving them a matrix that matches their dimensions .
So , to your question , i would prefer to answer yes ,
but for the moment ,
the jit.lcd , without this anti-aliasing feature , would be sooo cool !
i wouldn’t prefer a CPU solution ,
but an as-easy-as-jit.lcd straight output , one .
again , thanks a lot !

Hi Matthieu
would this work ?
Hey , yes phiol !
this is really working good .
thanks a lot lot lot !
downsampling via jit.gl.node is the key parameter that solves quite everything .
adjusting jit.world 's size , gl.nodes 's dim and a pwindow 's size ,
lets me have a very comfortable live preview .
and the use of a simple preset allows to get flawless displaying of the font i choose.
it's very nice from you ,
i really appreciate .
thanks , again ,
as soon as i go back to my displays , i capture the result and post it here .
have a nice day Phiol

My great pleasure Joumik.
I know precisely how you feel :-)
Can't wait to see what it does. please feel free to ping personally via email when you have the footage.
Have a great show :-)
