I can update it, but I think it makes more sense for you to have it on
your website. Just running "make" with that makefile should do it,
after you point it to the Pd and Gem sources.

I've updated the helpfile and source for pix_motion_sector. It now compares pixels using RGB vectors instead of just grayscale. Husk - if you're planning to use it, definitely update to this version:

Hans, would you mind updating the version you're hosting as well?

the distance between current/previous frames using all RGB info instead
of a greyscale approximation. The speed issue aside, that may be a significant difference from [pix_movement] worth investigating.On Fri, May 14, 2010 at 8:43 AM, Hans-Christoph Steiner <hans@at.or.at

I implemented Miller's phase vocoder from the documentation in C

much for improving efficiency... But I have seen a big difference for traversing tables and lists. The process of summing the
elements in a large table is much faster in an extern than with an [until] loop.In the case of [pix_motion_sector], what's the easiest way to duplicate the functionality of reporting % of pixels changed in
the region? Is there an obvious way to count up the number of
pixels that crossed [pix_movement]'s threshold in the cropped region?[pix_dump] ? Maybe a faster method ? ++

usually quite small, compared to the pixel operations.you would only need [pix_crop]->[pix_movement] without the [pix_separator] (since the crop will have to allocate a new image anyhow), thus no need for the extra copying of data.
the only speedup you could expect from pix_motion_sector (i
haven't looked at the code), is that you wouldn't have to copy the data
for cropping at all, but only use the pixels in the ROI.as for williams argument, that you need less objects, i would
suggest looking into abstractions :-) it's definitely less lines of
code (at a minimum 10 lines of Pd code) and still only a single object...mfgasdr IOhannes
