Hi.
I have a quick question regarding gem and its renderchain.
I have a patch : ( http://homepage.mac.com/doktorp/vade.tar.gz ) that
im expermineting with. very rudimentary.. forgive me =X
im using send and receive13 to bounce gem renderchains through
filters/effects. or, I was attempting to do that.
If I have a pix_filmYUV object that is being sent out, say, pix_one,
and then I have a pix_texture2 object thats displaying it via a (msg)
'pix_one' -> 'prepend set' ->receive13 -> 'rectangle 4 3'
(this is all a bit more clear in the patch).
I can see the image just fine. now: if I set ANOTHER effect, say
pix_blur, to only RECEIVE pix_one (and not set the destination to
explicitly SHOW the output from pix_blur (namely 1_blur is the name of
the output),
*I still see the blur effect on pix_one, even though the pix_blur is
not connected to the output*
Im sure this is how GEM defaults, but not how im used to working (with
jitter).
is there a way to separate (yes I tried the separate object, that only
works for translations -documentation..) these renderchains.
essentially id like to have just one destination and be able to set up
a filterchain by connecting a few of these things together, and just
toggling the output.
sorry to bother you with this but im confused as to how the renderchain
actually works.
thanks for any information and comments about the patch.
I want to do things as efficiently as possible.
thanks!
