hi,
i guess im hitting on some big topic, that has been discussed lots of times …
but still after working my way through the forums im not totally satisfied
here we go
im working with lots of textures on quads, and videotextures on quads, also png sequences(because of the alpha)
the image data on the quads are working fine, i can move them around smoothely
but first question
i read lot of times about the texture in powers of two
all my textures are either 512x512 or 1024x1024
if i use the texture node, do i use noPow of 2 or pow of 2 stretched? And is data on DX9 texture nodes always handled in the graficcard, or do i have to send it there via queque?
and now for the videos
its says, h.264 is a hardware supported codec, but does vvvv read a h.264 codec data file, if yes which one?
and what is the thing with the mov files, has anyone ever gotten this to work? if yes, with what version of what?
what does the wait for what frame, thing to say?
and to make things fluid how do i find out my framerate to know to which frame to wait for
in the end
are videos faster the loading image sequences?
and loading the alpha png sequence in to ram, does it really work when i take a nother quad, attach it to the renderer and set the quad disabled?
ps. is there a way to find out which part of youre programm sucks up the performance??
i would be really happy to get some answers
perhaps it also helps some other people
thank you very much
