Hello!

I need to trigger recording of a new video clip (from pix_video) every time brightness of a camera view decreases under certain level... And also to stop recording when it gets brighter again...

Does anyone have any idea what kind of object I should use to measure light?

Hello,

Does anyone know, how can I take snapshot from pix_video signal (or anyhow from webcam) and save it in Jpeg (or tiff...)?

I have tried connecting pix_snap to pix_video but that was not working...

Hello people!

Well, this is my first post....

I have a motion detector (based on pix_video/pix_blob) that outputs a bang every time something moves in front of the camera, and this works nice... But I want it to stop sending bangs after every detection (bang) for next 10 seconds, or somehow to become inactive for that period of time... Otherwise, bangs affect numbering of video files that I am making...

So is there a trick, how to automatically deactivate something that randomly sends bangs after first one for certain period?

pix_mean_color has solved the problem...

Thanks!!

Its strange, but I can not create that object...

I have tried in both 0.42.5 and 0.43.4.

Hello!

Do you have idea how to make inverted selection in this case?
(Showing just green...)
Could be really nice to have that option, I just can't figure out how to do it.

Or can I disable shortening of long numbers in Pd?
(like 1200000 becomes 1.2e+06)

Thanks!

That worked nice..

Is there any chance to change file numbering from 100000, 200000... to 1, 2...?

Thanks man!
I needed this a little bit different, but it helped me to figure out how to make it to work in my case... The problem was that I needed something that will let first bang pass through, and than close the spigot for next 10 seconds and than be open again for any random next, and so on.... So that output bang rate can not be more than 1 bang in 10 seconds, no matter how fast input bangs are. Here it is, attached...

Hvala!!
