i would recommend to try it out. it is highly hardware dependent whether 
you will have hardware acceleration on both heads for your gfx-card or not.

to discourage people from using it, is similar to discourage people from 
using full-duplex audio, just because my crappy soundcard/driver does 
only provide half-duplex (these days seem to be gone thankfully; but 
then: i would not recommend to use a microphone, since the one in my 
laptop sounds terrible :-))

I woudlnt recommend that (gemwin overlapping two windows) at least on my 
laptop, Nvidia non-free Linux drivers,as I tried this  it slowed everything 
down: I guess it's because the laptop's flat panel and the VGA output dont have

It rocks :-)

I've been using the two PD instances communicating over OSC way since a year 
now and It's fine. Never tried the mutiple Gemwin Gem lib though.

On OSX and Linux pix_share_write and pix_share_read use shared memory
between applications to pass pix_ frames.  The setup requires giving the
shared memory a numeric id, width, height and bits per pixel of the frame.
After this frames written by one pd instance can be read from any other pd.


OSX will require changing shm defaults in /etc/rc in order to use HD size
textures.

 Hi.

 About multiple gemwin at same time: I don't know if it's  
 possible, but
 it would be very useful.

without textures and lots of pix work this is fine - but I'm wanting  
to use plenty of movies and largish graphics as textures, which would  
be present from a different point of view in each of the windows.

It would be better to only read from the drive once, then decode  
using the CPU a single time, and to only transfer one copy to the  
graphics card - so it seems either 2 windows in a single pd or a way  
to pass references to textures already loaded between 2 different  
pd's is what I'm looking for, but I'll fall back on one machine per  
projector if required.

maybe using gemviewport from pdmtl:
http://www.workinprogress.ca/pd/pdmtl/gemviewport.ogg

scenario : dual screen, 1280x1024 and 800x600 for your projection. you make 
a gemwin 1120 width, offset 960 and put your preview in the window that 
appear in your screen. never tried it myself since i never did a 
performance.

My idea was rather to simply sync the messages so that the same video 
file is loaded by the two pd's separately.
I wasn't using any texturing with this setup though, so I don't know if 
it would work.

Load the same 3D space in the two pd's and relate the control data in 
some way ?

a window across two screens works fine for me on OSX, I guess it  
would depend on drivers, Xorg setup and graphics card on linux but  
should be quite achievable, does a preview ok but still it does not  
give me 2 viewpoints/camera angles on 1 3D world!

I'll check the other references as well    thanks

a while ago there was a multiple-Gemwin version of Gem around - I  
tried out the binary that was available and it worked fine (I think  
on OSX but possibly Linux?) but I used the 2 pd method instead for my  
project.

I don't know if it is possible for one pd to use textures or buffers  
created in the other, that would make the preview idea work well with  
two pd instances. Soon I want to try 2 camera views of the same 3D  
space, I think that would be much easier in a single instance of pd  
with two windows!


Is the multiple window patch still working? (preferably on Linux, but  
also on OSX?)

Or is there a better way to try this?

I've done stuff with two gemwins by running pd 2 times and have the two

It worked quite well.

Hi.

About multiple gemwin at same time: I don't know if it's possible, but it
would be very useful.

You can see some interesting objects in

This objects are only available for Linux.
