Vizzie plug ins freeze video and do not work
Hi - I am running Max 8 on a mac. I have been running video into a mixer to fade between clips with no problem for some time. I have tried to introduce Vizzie plugins into this workflow and find that when a Vizzie plugin is integrated into any of my video chains it freezes the video until the plugin is turned off - effectively Vizzie plug ins are not working for me. Does anyone have any advice?
I've pasted my patch here - let me know if this is not the correct route to getting some assistance with this problem. Thank you!
The Vizzie modules expect to work with textures rather than matrices, which is what the jit.xfade objects are kicking out.
Replace all those old jit.xfade objects with texture-based equivalents (I'd suggest grabbing the XFADR module from Vizzie's MIX-COMPOSITE tab). You'll need to do a little repatching - the xfade control is just a value between 0. and 1.0 sent to the XFADR module's right outlet rather than a message sent to the jit.xfade object, but you should be not only good to go, but more efficient, too [since matrix processing is mucho pokey compared to working with textures on your GPU].
Thank you! That was very helpful.
