hi,
this is my first forum post so: hello everybody!
i’m currently in the process of switching from max/jitter over to vvvv and so far everything seems very lovely! however, i have one question i did not find an answer for which is somewhat crucial for me:
most of my projects involve very long live video delays (up to 30 min) so what i do in max, is to save the output of a camera (often highspeed at like 100fps) as single, uncompressed frames to ram or ssds creating a circular buffer. i then randomly read these images back later and only then load them on the gpu for further processing (at 25 or 50fps).
i checked “Writer (DShow9)” but from what i understand, it only does avi (which is no use for a circular buffer) and also is limited to 25fps. how would i go on about a setup like this? are there any example patches for circular disk or ram buffers?
thanks a lot for any advice, all the best!
