So I'm trying to run this code that plays tiled strips of video simultaneously to create a ripple effect on digital wallpaper. My code works - but it's mind numbingly slow. Any ideas to speed it up? Do i need to step on the quality of my video?

Here's what i've been running:

import processing.video.*;

FullScreen fs; //fulscreen object

//variables to maintain the floating green circle
float objx = 0;
float objy = 0;
float objdestx = 0;
float objdesty = 0;

//Wallpaper Dimensions
int movieWidth=128;
int movieHeight=576;
int movieStart=105; //leaves white letterbox to maintain 16:9 ratio
int strips=8;
