Hi, anybody there could make any app with this 2 monsters?

I started to work with processing and quartz, and i saw that there is posible run JAVA code from Quartz, but i dont know if i could integrate processing code in quartz, or run quartz from processing.

thnx

Steve Thanx a lot!

u r the one!!!
i cant wait to prove this code!

yes but i loose comunication with my compositions.

i´m trying to make a composition with some blob and edege detection, work with fiducial markers, etc.
Use the graphic power of QC and the libraries from Processing for blobdetection, edge detection etc.


thnx

right, that's because processings video-lib is a framegrabber rather than a (direct to screen) player. it will translate every new available frame into a processing pimage, see here. which makes sense, since that way you can read and manipulate the pixels inside processing ..

i was working on a qtjava based library for a while that would do the reverse and put processing as a layer into quicktime. but there were flicker-issues (probably sync problems) which made me give up. but still i think there's a lot of room in the qt-processing area, and with QC too of course.

thanks for sharing your xcode projects btw!

This is brilliant, thanks so much.  Unfortunately I'm on an intel so I am expecting some issues.

If not many people have used Quartz composer I thoroughly recommend it.  Although nowhere near as extensible as processing, the speed at which it renders graphics is amazing, and it has a very simple interface.

Hi timmy,

First of all, i'm not the creator of the QC plugin, credit goes to www.lalalila.org (QC plugin source) and www.mat.ucsb.edu/~c.ramakr/ (ObjCOSC.framework source).

I just used their source code and compiled a working version for PPC/INTEL.

The problem you've experiencing is a known bug (from ObjCOSC.framework).
I was working on it last week when i had an idea :
Trying it on Leopard.

There are two news, a bad and a good one.

The bad one > the QC plugin and the OSC Framework are not working on Leopard.

The good one > Quartz Composer 3.0 supports OSC natively and it is working great with P5 !

So i don't think i will try to fix the Framework bug as Leopard is gonna be unleashed soon and the bug is only present on INTEL MAC.

Anyway if you like to give a try on the OSC QC plugin, you must edit and re-type the OSCRoute "Null" String Value and save your composition again. (by editing the value, it appears to temporarily fix the problem).

Keep your P5 sketch launched when doing this and you'll see the result on the fly.

The other solution (slower) is to launch Quartz Composer by Rosetta.

Maybe you have done the same error as me. You forget to fixed the string in the input tag of the patch "OSCRoute" in Quatz Composer. What I mean is you have to write the first part of the Osc message you are sending in this field. For example, in Processing I send the message "test" followed by the integer "123". So you need to type "test" in the field of the input tag in Quartz Composer. Then, you gonna see the contents of the message, wich is "123" showing in your composition.
I hope this is what you missed.
