I'm new to pd and this forum, but I spended some time searching this place and cannot seem to find an answer for my problem. (or it just doesn't do the trick for me)

In one of the paches I'm working with I open a video with [pix_film]. I use this video as a texture on a rectangle.
Now I want to mask this video (or the textured rectangle) with another rectangle so I can mask my video real-time.

I tried some masking objects, and used movies and pictures as a mask, but nothing seems to work.

Which objects do I need or is it possible to show me a demo patch doing this?

Hi!!!

I´m very new in this stuff too. I´m not sure what are you trying, but I think it´s to use one video like a mask (¿filter?) of another, right?

I´m looking for that too and I think a way (but not tested ):

-May be you can look in the web for some kind of .avi (or supported video file) mask.

-Check out the [alpha] patch in GEM/Pd.

-Check out too the [aging] patch in GEM/Pd

Good look!
