hi list ! i'm working on live-captured video treatment with gem. the main
patch is okay, but in order to get a convenient improvisation tool, i would
like to have a "control monitor" with another content that what's
dsiplayed on the main gemwin (which is shown to the audience)... captured frames are stored in a pix_buffer (360x288px on 1 channel - grey) and i thought to send them to another computer with its own
gemwin in which they might be displayed (for the performer)... i tried with on one side, [pix_dump] and [netsend] and, on the other computer, [netreceive] and [pix_set]... it was very slow, and crashed... so, i reduced the picture to
45x36 px and split the pix-list into packets of 100 floats. i finally got a picture, but lines aren't synchronized (i get "diagonals"), and i
don't understand why... does someone see an easier solution to pass pixes through a local network ? i don't care a lot about latency (hem...less than 10
seconds of course) and resolution...on osx and linux you can use [pix_share_read] and [pix_share_write] to share images between two instances of Pd/Gem on one(!) computer via shared-memory. this should be very fast.
About [pix_share_read] and [pix_share_write]. Is there a method using
this two objects to share a picture that come from a
[gemframebuffer] ? I think is not possible. Am I wrong ?

afair, there are some freeframe-plugins that allow you to send images from one host to another (via network), but i don't know on which platform they are available (i guess: w32) and whether they are
free; i never tried them, but they should be usable with [pix_freeframe].depending on what you are doing, it might be easiest to just run 2 (synched) instances of Gem that independently produce the 2 visuals
(and are controlled by a single patch)or use a multi-monitor setup and do clever things to get 2 virtual monitors in a single gemwindow.
or pay the developers a lot of money to finally get the multi-window support into Gem which i have been promising for more than 3 years :-)
