I want to create some custom Jitter externals but building the 

myself is proving to be a bit beyond me. Is there somewhere I can find a pre-compiled Jitter library for Windows (`jitter.lib`)? I found an old one, but it was for Max 5 or something like that, and I assume that's way too old. If there's something I'm missing that would make all of this a lot easier, I would love to know!

I have a fairly complicated jitter patch that receives a lot of OSC messages from a Pure Data audio installation. Briefly, it is composed of 8 gridshape that goes to 8 mesh that goes to 8 nodes that are blended to two spout server and I'm using Resolume to edgeblend this composition on a three projector screen. All data from the Pure Data patch are mapped to some parameter to do an audio - video reactive installation. It is working very well at hight fps, but : 

Randomly, I get these errors, always new random ID for both : 

name u709007696 already in use. ob3d does not allow multiple bindings

Also, the patch randomly closes/crashes without having a crash report on reopening.

Is someone here knows why I get these errors and if it could be related to the crashes?

I've got this fairly simple patch, just aimed to broadcast a video with the ability to offset and resize the image. 

I'd like to edit the cornerpins with the mouse, but in the patcher window instead of in the main (jit.world) window. How would you do this ?

I'm hoping to gain some insight or suggestions on how to achieve this without using desktop capture.

- search and play Gif using the Giphy API 

- pipe the Gif animation through Jitter, so it can be mixed (composited) with other videos or Gifs

don't know if this has been done before, any tips would be awesome!

I am working in a video compositing and mapping patch in Jitter.  Basically, I need to compose and map 4 video sources of 568x769 each in a 3840x2160 canvas/texture.

I am struggling to load and display those video sources in their original size in pixels.

I am loading each video source in a separate jit.gl.videoplane (transform_reset 0, but I've also tried with different options), all of them drawing to the world. Each jit.gl.video plane is being fed with the right texture dimensions (568x769), but then in the world everything gets bigger/different. Also, the dimension of the window would alter the size of the videos.

How can I keep consistent/fixed sizes as the original?

thank you for this inspirational upgrade.

I was very much looking forward to the announced upgrade to jit.gl.pbr's parralax-mode as mentioned two years ago in this video here (Matteo Marsen, 12:30 ff): 

which would enable us to displace geometry as is possible with jit.gl.material using heightmap-textures. 

Perhaps I am not clever enough to find the correct method on how to use textures to displace geometry using jit.gl.pbr, however, the helppatch for jit.gl.pbr still states that only matrices are supported while textures are in fact supported and the parallax-mode can only be flagged without further options — hence the displacement does not take place. Is there something I am overlooking? Or will it be part of a future upgrade/update?

If I where super experienced in shader coding, perhaps I could implement heightmap displacement myself, but since it (apparently) didn't make it into this upgrade of Max, it is likely to be a bit more challenging than an afternoon's coffee-session ^^

I’m building a system for live performance where I may need many different shader modes. To avoid having one very long shader file with dozens of branches, I’d like to preload multiple jit.gl.shader objects and simply switch them at runtime. For this to be reliable on stage, I need to be sure about when compilation actually happens, and whether switching shaders ever triggers recompilation.

• When exactly does a jit.gl.shader compile its code? Is it compiled immediately when I read a file or set the @file attribute (when autowatch is 1), or only once it is bound to a jit.gl.mesh (or other OB3D)? Otherwise, if autowatch is 0, does it just sit idle until I explicitly send "compile" or "read"?

• Is “compile” and “bind” treated as separate steps in Jitter (like OpenGL’s glCompileShader vs. glUseProgram)? “For example, if I change the @shader attribute of a jit.gl.mesh from phongShader to blinnShader, does that trigger any recompilation, or does it simply bind an already compiled program?”

• Does the autowatch attribute affect this process? My understanding is that autowatch 1 only recompiles when the source file changes on disk, not when shaders are bound/unbound. Is that correct?

I’ve read the reference docs, and while they imply this separation, they don’t spell it out. I’d love to have a confirmation of how jit.gl.shader handles compilation vs binding, and exactly what role autowatch plays.

Hello, I made this little scrambler which randomly re-arranges sections of an image. Love the use of jit.scisors, and jit.glue, and I'm wondering if it there is potential for an alternative in gl.
