Is it possible to adjust tint on a movie?

kyatsu

I am interested in learning how to fade tint(255,255) to tint(255,0) with a key press, and then from tint(255,0) back to tint(255,255) with a key release on a movie. I can't figure out how to do this with imported video!

There is nothing different about using tint with an image or with a video frame.

Here is how you use tint(), example from the reference:

• https://processing.org/reference/tint_.html

Notice that it is called before image() in draw.

Now here is a basic movie example, from the Video library reference:

• https://processing.org/reference/libraries/video/Movie_read_.html

Notice that it displays the video frame with image().

So, to recap -- call tint() before image(). Whether a still image or a video frame, it will tint the image.

Also, here are some recent discussions on fading and fading video:
