[PD-dev] yet another video processing external...

[Yves Degoyon]

hi,

that's great !! that's the first time i get
an acceptable frame rate in PD
and, that's funny because i was
planning to make such a package myself.

by the way, do you plan to add audio support
one of these days ( this might be my little contribution ).

cheers,

sevy/yves
