So, it sounds like one could attach the output of the syphon client to the image splitter that gets published "out" of the qtz image filter type protocol.
Then, in QC or some other app, you'd run the composition with a Syphon Server at the top layer, and use "OpenGL Scene" as the source. This would allow one to get around stuffing Consumer patches in a Render In Image patch to make a bunch of consumers be able to "conform" to the image filter protocol. You'd also be able to run the composition with MSAA if it's enabled in some host, while having CamTwist load the composition with the Syphon client. Though, if everything is in a render in image patch anyway for some reason, or was just a legit Image Filter (no RII/consumers involved), it likely makes sense to just load the composition straight into CamTwist rather than use the image in on Syphon and share it with CamTwist. It would be a more direct route. -gt On Apr 5, 2012, at 9:12 AM, Lee Grosbauer wrote: > I'm not yet caught up on Syphon or it's use in CamTwist, hopefully > Achim could respond more accurately, but the way in which CamTwist > otherwise integrates Quartz Compositions is to host them formatted as > image filters or variations thereof.
