Hi,

I'm trying to load a video in full HD 1920 X 1080 with [pix_film] to texture a rectangle.

Quicktime movie .mov

Size 1920 X 1080

I reduced its format size to HD 1280 X 720 and now [pix_film] is able to open it but reproduction is slow and choppy.

I use [pix_film] to load Quicktime (.mov) DV 780 X 420 videos and they run perfectly.The same setup won't work with 1920 X 1080.

I work on OS X 10.9.1 and Pd-Ext 0.43.4 extended.

How can I load videos in full HD 1920 x 1080 in order to texture effectively?

Hello,

to my experience, at least on linux, it is hard to keep good framerate with the current implementation of pix_film and HD files, regardless of the format, and it plays far better using pdgst library. https://github.com/umlaeute/pdgst although it still need some polishing (for controlling the playback of a file f.ex. ) the displaying of even multiple movies in full HD mpg4 or mjpg is fluid with it ...

(I did a small fork of it on github - https://github.com/Olm-e/pdgst - to play with the code and added the seek parameter so you can control the playhead and speed ... but it still needs some stuff like being able to get the length of a movie to know when to stop, loop, etc ... Iohannes, maybe you can look at this a bit ?)

hope it helps,

Ol.
