I haven't tried the Spooky patches, but they may be pulling the
information every frame. You can try the built in OSC patches.

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?
