Video Out over Firewire in Lion

leon's picture

I need to send my composition (with transparent alpha) output to another computer to mix it. There was a way over QuartzComposerLiveDV and VirtualDV, but the first one is no longer Lion compatible. Any clues how to implement this functionality?

Write a 32 bit only background process that sends out frames via DV, and send frames from QC via IOSurface.

Yea, fun.

I have a 32 bit only solution that works,

( v002 1394.plugin.zip )

So ensure you are running 32 bit only. This has not been tested in 10.7 yet.
