hi i think there is definitely something wrong with that right inlet in pix_background its not just me who has encountered the pix_background: no method for 'blur' error on windows. the left inlet works fine. perhaps the help file should be modified to show how the range $1 $2 $3 message can be passed to the left inlet. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ robcanning www.robcanning.utvinternet.com

Hi,
I'm having trouble getting pix_background working on my windows machine. I have tried running the help patch in /5.reference/ and when i hit the 'threshold' message box going in to the right inlet i get the error:
pix_background: no method for 'blur'
any ideas?
Well, I wrote that object and I have no idea where 'blur' would even enter into it - there's certainly nothing related to blur in the current CVS. Try using a 'range $1 $2 $3' message to set the R G B or Y U V thresholds. The right inlet was added by Johannes and does the same thing as the range message, except the range message accepts exact integer pixel values while the right inlet requires normalized 0..1 floats.
