[PD] GEM : GLSL Mixer - working 2 channel video mixer example

[vade]

Hm. Interesting. GEM does not have a drop frame system? Im not sure  
about the scheduler differences between PD and Max/Jitter, but most  
Jitter events are in a different queue and have a drop frame handling  
method built in to each object, and when drawing with openGL one  
should use a 'qmetro', or a queue limited metro -  to avoid such a  
case. Im speaking a bit out of my realm of expertise but I dont really  
think a Patcher should be able to do that, if it did indeed lock up  
your system.

What is the proper way of handing this in PD/GEM? Sorry for causing a  
crash. I saw your PD Jitter patch, but frankly I think some drop frame  
system should be built into GEM to handle this automatically.

Anyway, what kind of powerbook? It may not have the required hardware  
support for the shader, which might be why you are only getting 10fps,  
via software fallback?
