[PD] pd & director

[Fares Kayali]

hi!

I'm trying to develop a audio triggered video tool based on pd and director for mac os x.

The idea so far is to let pd analyze and handle audio data and communicate values to director, which controls the video output and sends control signals to pd.

My questions... ;-)
Would you recommend this software combination?
How good is Video performance with Macromedia Director?
Which is the best way to communicate with director (eg TCP?) and how about lag time?

any comments are helpful as i haven't started yet...!
thx
so long!
