Hi

If this is possible it is going to be a simple question for the Gem people. I've been asked to do some VJ'ing for a friend's gig, and I've tried this with Jitter before, and I familiar with Pd, so I thought I would give Gem a shot. But before I start learning a new environment I wanted to ask a few questions.

Is it possible to do a full screen Gem window, on a second monitor/projector? I can't seem to to find an option for it.

And are there any issues I should be aware of using video together with Gem?

That is actually it. I've skimmed through the manual and there doesn't seem to be anything terribly different from pd in there, so there's only the full-screen thing that could really be problem.

Any ideas?

About fullscreen there is some way to make it.

some of my experiences:
I had need to have my gem windows on the first screen (the one with full 3D acceleration)

The fullscreen option for create a gemwindow was messy on my configuration, i had need to set the position and size of the gem window manually, and in this case need to tell the windows to have no windows decoration (there is argument for all of this).

On the w32 version with get not too heavy on the proc, i had need to make 320x240 footage in midivid codec, but you could try with direct full dv format, maybe with an enough recent computer it could handle it.

For video purpose only, Pidip seem to be damn faster than gem.
