Thanks to everyone who responded, I really appreciate the help. In the
end I combined the two compositions into one, and stretched it across to
the projector screen. This worked well enough to get me by for the
evening. Today I found Kineme.net's spooky send-receive plug in, and it
is allowing the two compositions to interface with better performance.
A new problem: directing the movie file URL from the browser composition
to the mixer composition is causing a serious performance hit. While the
browser is working alone, it does very little and doesn't register much
CPU or render load. When connected to the mixer, both application's
frame rates drop considerably. The only output from the browser patch is
currently the movie URL and a boolean trigger.
I can see two potential causes: the browser constantly polling the movie
source directory (which is now being accessed by the mixer), or an issue
with the movie URL being watched for changes by the mixer patch. What
would be a way to decouple the two while a new URL isn't being sent?
