[PD] [GEM] Flatten Alpha for storage, then restore it

2008-08-01 Thread Spencer Russell
I'm mixing video by background subtracting it and then setting the background transparent (alpha = 0), then texturing each video onto overlapping rectangles to achieve a compositing effect. I need to record the different videos with [pix_record] and then play them back later while preserving the

The stopgap solution I'm using now is to record the raw output of pix_background(with the background set to black) and then when I restore it I'm using an abstraction that uses the image as its own alpha mask with [pix_takealpha] (the mask image is run through a pix_gain with a gain of 5 to

the help file of pix_write says that it takes a picture of the frame buffer, whereas I want to capture the current pix frame. I need to capture from a camera without displaying it to the screen. I'm looking into it, though, because I seem to be having lots of segfaults with pix_record, especially

I've been having a heck of a time with pix_record. The attached patch reliably causes a segfault if you record to one pix_record, stop the recording, then record to the second one. I'm using Ubuntu Hardy with pd-extended 0.40.3-1 packaged by Hans. My libquicktime version is 2:1.0.0+debian-5. and

Hi: Foolishly, I upgraded my perfectly configured workstation from Fedora 5 to Fedora 9. Since then I've been struggling to regain my position. I was happily using my Edirol UA-25 under ALSA with Pd, but now that doesn't work. It gives a perplexing error message. Perhaps someone has seen it.
