Good Afternoon everybody,
I'm trying to find the best way to use pix_snap2tex and pix_chroma_key in conjunction. Basically, I want to take snaps from a webcam feed, process them and key the results over a regular video file using pix_film etc. Preferably without having to actually display the raw cam feed.
My problem is that the snap2tex is grabbing images of whatever is displaying in the GEM window, rather than from a specific feed only. I.e. The webcam. I'm sure there must be a way to chose where to grab from? I think from what people on this list have said it may be with the pix_buffer object but I really can't get to grips with how to use this.
If any one can give me some pointers on this, or any other way I could approach this, I'd be most grateful! Thanks.
Use pix_buffer to grab a single frame and then key that if you really only want a single frame every once and a while. If you want to key every frame of the live feed then just put that into pix_chroma_key.
