I am developing a max for live device that play clips in the session view in Live, and these clips send read messages to a jit.gl.movie object that plays them in a jit.world. Everything runs well on my Mac laptop, but recently I got some unusual heating that I thing is related to the jit use and the rendering of these movie clips. I am reducing the dimensions of my clip after they go through jit.gl.movie to 1280x700. After that I applied some jit effects ( color saturation, hue, delay and vhs). What other precautions should I take care in the patching in other to reduce the stress of GPU? Also, I monitor the CPU and GPU of my laptop while using the device, but I am not sure what numbers should I be careful.

I am also monitoring the jit.world in Max with the fps it renders, and I notice that even when the movie clips are not playing, it keeps active the monitoring of fps. I tried giving it the argument enable 0 but it just disappear  the window.

Sorry for so many questions in one, I am starting to work with jit and videos.]]></description><link>https://cycling74.com/forums/good-practices-for-avoiding-gpu-overload-when-using-jit-objects</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cycling74.com/forums/good-practices-for-avoiding-gpu-overload-when-using-jit-objects</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mauro Trotta]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2026 04:36:55 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[is there a 'get info' object?]]></title><description><![CDATA[I would like to 'get' presentation rectangle from panel info

getattr no good

would be cool if I could just resize a panel and then that will determine the size of patcher when I open it next

so if I decide for example to add or remove stuff I I can just resize the panel - don't have to fiddle around with guessing new size and setting it - just offset a few pixels around the outside

I cannot wrap my head around this. i have made a sampler patch that scrubs through a sample. it works without any clicks as a standalone patch not opened in ableton. plays without any clicks. but as soon as i trigger it inside ableton i start hearing these really annoying clicks when i scrub through the patch. Im using a switch ramp technique to declick my sampler could it be related to that ?

makes it easier to use.

then, you did not precise the question.

for example, if you have a list with 20 items, and set address to 12, 

does that mean that you want to output all from 11th back to 1st item ?

in that case use zl.slice and split / reverse the  list at that index.

[Image: d5bd7ff3-abe6-4c34-b1d0-5d1461bd7099.png ]
if you need a number of items from address backwards ?

then you need 2 parameters, offset and number of items...

which seems not to be the case, at least not in the patch you posted.]]></description><link>https://cycling74.com/forums/list-order-reversed-uses-bach#reply-6a227068e633e3bbac0453e9</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cycling74.com/forums/list-order-reversed-uses-bach#reply-6a227068e633e3bbac0453e9</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Source Audio]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2026 06:44:56 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[New reply to: jit.movie in M4L device patch plays back movie file faster than properties indicate]]></title><description><![CDATA[without seeing the patch I can simply suggest you sync playback of the jit.movie to the playback of the mp3. you can do this easily by getting the target timecode from the mp3, say once a second, and if the current time of the movie player is beyond some threshold, adjust the rate value accordingly until it's back in the threshold. this is a simple logic gate to setup and should work flawlessly.]]></description><link>https://cycling74.com/forums/jitmovie-in-m4l-device-patch-plays-back-movie-file-faster-than-properties-indicate#reply-6a22eaf9e633e3bbac04cab9</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cycling74.com/forums/jitmovie-in-m4l-device-patch-plays-back-movie-file-faster-than-properties-indicate#reply-6a22eaf9e633e3bbac04cab9</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob Ramirez]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2026 15:27:53 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[New reply to: Good practices for avoiding GPU overload when using jit objects]]></title><description><![CDATA[Hi Mauro, heating is inevitable when the GPU is under load. But unless you notice degrading in performance (due to thermal throttling) there should be no problems. You can download the Stats app https://mac-stats.com/ to monitor the GPU load and temperature (it can easily go over 90°C under stress).

A steady fps from jit.world means the system is not overloaded. Also don't worry about the jit.world rendering while clips are not playing, that doesn't have an impact on the performance.]]></description><link>https://cycling74.com/forums/good-practices-for-avoiding-gpu-overload-when-using-jit-objects#reply-6a227ea9e633e3bbac0465f9</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cycling74.com/forums/good-practices-for-avoiding-gpu-overload-when-using-jit-objects#reply-6a227ea9e633e3bbac0465f9</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[LSka]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2026 07:45:45 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[New reply to: Good practices for avoiding GPU overload when using jit objects]]></title><description><![CDATA[i answered you on the discord as well, but just want to reply to here since you've provided more details, to say that you can't adjust the dimensions of a jit.gl.movie directly (ie a output_texture enabled jit.movie).  it will output textures at the native dimensions of the loaded movie file. if you want to down or upscale, send through a jit.gl.texture @adapt 0 @dim 1200 700 (if you want exact dims) or jit.gl.slab @dimscale .5 .5 (if you want e.g. half res).]]></description><link>https://cycling74.com/forums/good-practices-for-avoiding-gpu-overload-when-using-jit-objects#reply-6a22ebe9e633e3bbac04cb58</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cycling74.com/forums/good-practices-for-avoiding-gpu-overload-when-using-jit-objects#reply-6a22ebe9e633e3bbac04cb58</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob Ramirez]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2026 15:31:53 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[New reply to: Custom sampler m4L patch works smoothly in max editor but clicks only when triggered in ableton ]]></title><description><![CDATA[explain "scrub". signal or data rate? automatic or by user action (mouse)?]]></description><link>https://cycling74.com/forums/custom-sampler-m4l-patch-works-smoothly-in-max-editor-but-clicks-only-when-triggered-in-ableton#reply-6a2326443e98b737f0f20abe</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://cycling74.com/forums/custom-sampler-m4l-patch-works-smoothly-in-max-editor-but-clicks-only-when-triggered-in-ableton#reply-6a2326443e98b737f0f20abe</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Roman Thilenius]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2026 19:40:52 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[New reply to: How to sync ms and min:sec:msec inputs with carry-over in Max?]]></title><description><![CDATA[I would suggest you use something like this:

When I manually change the number box for "miliscond," the value of the second number box doesn't change even when crossing the threshold from 999 to 0,0 to 999. I think this is a processing speed issue in the structure after the bucket. The number box under translate hh:mm:ss ms responds accurately to hh:mm:ss no matter how fast I manually change it...

I've tried various structures around the bucket, but I haven't gotten good results. I would be grateful if someone could provide a good solution.

But the simplest is probably to use the patcher attribute openrect "Intial Window", that makes a limitation to appear, à la M4L device. When you'll open your patch the window will fit that rectangle, and you can easily resize it when editing the patch.
