Hi, just wondering:

Has anybody had any satisfactory results with using high resolution video as a texture?

...because the normal Movie class from the video library is just awful, but if I try and use the FasterMovie class then I can't seem to use the output as a "PImage" for textures, like I can with the Movie class.

So I just can't win, right? Or...?

I have the same problem. Only why is video so slow?

Ah, it seems that my problem lies somewhere else than I thought:

Even if I just try the standard fastermovie example patch:

--------------------------------------------------------
FasterMovie fm;
PImage mImage;

void setup ()
{
   size(640,480);
   fm = new FasterMovie(this, "countdown15.mov", false);
   fm.loop();
   background( 0 );
}

void draw ()
{
 image( fm, 0,0, width, height );
 if ( mImage != null ) image( mImage, 0,0, width, height );
}

void movieImageAvailable ( PImage _movieImage )
 {
     mImage = _movieImage;
 }

--------------------------------------------------------

...then I don't get anything to work. I get these error messages:

java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.security.AllPermission <all permissions> <all actions>)
at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
at quicktime.QTCallbackManagement.registerForCallback(QTCallbackManagement.java:24)




...does anybody know what the **** this means? I'm using java version 1.5.0_14-b03 and quicktime version 7.3.1

And I've "installed" the fastermovie class by just copy-pasting the fastermovie class code into my processing patch (it should normally work that way, no?)

Thanks
