Uploading photos onto Instagram

Hi Folks!

I am looking into using VPT to capture a livestream video with filter effects and MaxMSP to capture images. I want to connect that onto Instagram and upload those images, but I'm not sure how to go about it. I was wondering if anyone knows how to approach this.

Thank you so much :)

Break the problem down into parts and use Max 8's search facilities to check for help files, tutorials, examples, and Forum postings.

What format does VPT allow for output (what are the options, if there is more than one)?
Does Jitter allow you to work with that form of output (what are the options, if there is more than one)?
What means are available to connect to Instagram via Max?

That's the best place to start. It is generally the case that you'll get much better feedback from users if you show them a concrete piece of a project like this that you've already done or are stuck on, and that is also true for your attempts to investigating individual pieces of the task.
