Changes since VideoTools 2.1

• Fixed bug that caused Video Input patch to stop updating its outputs.

Known issues

• H.264 videos stutter when played backwards.
• VideoTools patches provide only video input, not audio input.
• Firewire cameras only support certain combinations of Color Coding, Resolution, and Framerate. Watch the Error output and Console log when troubleshooting.
• Due to issues with the underlying frameworks, video device info cannot be queried once a video device is in use. Therefore Video Device Info is only updated once: when the composition is first started.
