I would like to find out if video streaming input/decoder is on the wish-list for next Jitter release?

It would be great if it is, but if it is not, is it possible to write an external object that does it?

Any insight will be of great help. Thanks.

jit.qt.movie is already capable of reading http and rtsp QuickTime 

streams. What other kinds of streams are you thinking of?

Thanks for your reply. It's good news, because I wasn't able to find rtsp support as input from the jit.qt.movie reference. At present, could jit.qt.movie take in rtstp 3gp streams directly, e.g. mpeg4 video + amr-nb audio, mpeg 4 + acc audio, etc.?

Somehow I thought amr-nb and acc audio formats are not supported in current version. If they are not supported, does that mean I need to somehow decode the audio formats to a streaming format that MAX/MSP can take in?

Jitter should be capable of streaming any QuickTime-compatible rtsp 

source. If QuickTime Player handles it, and Jitter doesn't, I'd like to 

Jitter should be capable of streaming any QuickTime-compatible rtsp 
source. If QuickTime Player handles it, and Jitter doesn't, I'd like to 
know about it.

Also, I have tried reading a 3gp video file (with probably amr-nb audio), and split the audio out via spigot~.

But when I read the video file, it throws the following error message:

"error: jit.qt.movie: error -205 setting media soc"

So I assume it's a format issue. Maybe I misinterpret the error code...

Sorry I take in what I posted earlier. It seems AMR-NB is supported perfectly fine. Maybe the error is due to another cause.

Yes, you are interpreting the error code.

a) I don't believe that spigot~ works with streams

b) spigot~ is presently broken under QuickTime 7, as has been 

exhaustively discussed on this list. We're in the process of developing 

a workaround. The workaround defintely won't work with streams. Please 

file complaints with: Steve Jobs, 1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino, CA 95014

Thanks a lot for the clarification. I will search for postings on spigot~.

One more question: Is there any workaround if I'd like to process the video streams and export the processed video stream together with the original video stream as a quicktime movie file?

Currently, I understand how to copy an existing audio file as a track to jit.qt.movie, but don't know how to do that with an audio stream. Would that be possible?

export the processed video stream together with the original AUDIO stream as a quicktime movie file...

P.S. And Yes, I will write to 1 Infinite Loop... haha

No way that I'm aware of. Streamed audio is typically "untouchable", 

although you could try exporting/flattening a streaming movie and see 

what happens. We don't stop you from trying it, although you might run

Thanks for the insight, JB. I will try and see what will happen.

Could you expand on this untouchableness, Jeremy? I'm after the same

thing: reading in audio and video from an RTSP stream and writing to a

buffer or a file (or multiple buffers and files if necessary).

I mean that there's no way, in QuickTime, to get at the sample data for 

this stream. Possibly one could write an Audio Unit for intercepting the 

data and doing something with it, but I don't believe that streamed 

audio uses the same audio pathways as disk-based audio. I haven't done

any real research on the topic, though.
