i'm building a new video mixer from scratch and was wanting to sort out a problem that i've had for ages. when playing a clip below its frame rate pd greens out between frame, is there a way to get the [gemhead] to hold the texture until the next frame...

i never had that problem with [pix_film].

what codec/compression are you using for your videos?

.mov is the file type

i think it was because [texture] wasn't in the gemlist, cos now that i've layered up some effects its disappeared, i think this just shows the importance of getting it tidy cos i've killed a hole heep of bug since my last mixer.

thanks though flo

Anyone find a solution for this yet? I'm having the same problem on MacOSX and haven' t been able to "solve" it with a texture object.

Hey Weevil,
[pix_movie] was giving me the same problem, but [pix_film] seems to work perfectly. run [pix_film] to [pix_texture] then to [rectangle 4 3] just to see if it works correctly. check the pix_film-help in the browser for details.
