And of course not a second after I send that I get it to work.

Not sure what I was doing wrong before. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Yes, as far as installation is concerned. I’m not exactly clear whether or not I need to be operating Quartz Composer simultaneously. I am not familiar with using Quartz Composer, though I do have it set to 32-bit.

As far as using this as a qcfx within vdmx, I do have it installed in the proper folder and I am able to allocate it as a filter to a given layer. However, I am unable to receive any information from the effect other than a black screen no matter what input I select for Video #1 and which channels I select for Active. I may very well be doing everything wrong so any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

jordon: Yes it does. Have you exactly followed the instructions in the Read Me?

Does this work in vdmx 5 b0.8.0.6.2? It is not for me :(

Theora actually performs alright, and does have some unique characteristics – thanks for the suggestion. Other ones I’ve tried in the past but which are too slow or otherwise don’t work for realtime use were the Sorenson codecs, Cinepak and H261. H263 is similar to H264, with a softer bloom, I’ll probably add it and Theora when I get around to an update. I don’t think I own an MPEG-2 encode-capable codec to try.

This Video is what made me suggest Ogg Theora;-)

Thanks for sending me in the right direction. I didn’t know inter-frame compression was what that type of conservation was called;-) I guess the only other codecs I could even find was Ogg Theora and maybe MPEG-2.
Do you know of any other inter-frame compression codecs other than that?

John Knott – none of nick’s suggested codecs perform inter-frame compression.
