I am running into issues with jit.gl.pix and my Radeon 680M Graphics card. 

Whenever I add a call to sample() in my connected codebox i get an unkown error in the max console with every attempt to execute the shader and then max frequently crashes shortly after. I have an older laptop that runs the equivalent code with no issues so it appears to by a graphics card/driver specific issue. I have rolled back the engine to gl2 as a work around but would love to know if there's anything else that i can do to troubleshoot or fix the issue. especially since i bought this mini pc to have something that i could run max on ;(

Hi. I need to disable 'command-e'   shortcut (Mac) for each individaul patch.

preferable with a toggle - from within the patch and/or from without

is it ok to let qmetro bang away all day?

hmmm. or maybe just turn it on from a master controller while I'm working 

I guess I can make a 'work mode' that only allows certain patches to be unlocked

Hey was hoping to get some guidance on where to start with this. Basically, I want each track on Ableton to be able to step at an independent tempo. I am using this great m4l device called Opal. I'm assuming it listens to the global tempo, but I was wondering if there was a way I could tell it to listen to a different tempo (without editing the opal patch)

seems to be no longer working as expected. Even its help patcher does not work because 

 cannot 'drawto' the named it.gl.asyncread, thus the latter does not output anything.

SOLVED: jit.gl.asyncread not working in Max 9.1.4

I am a relative beginner to Max, first time posting on the forum. Thanks in advance for any assistance. 

I am creating a video tool which displays 12 instances of the same video across a single screen, with each video playing at a different speed. 

To make this happen, I've arrived at a setup where I have 12 jit.gl.movie objects, feeding into 12 jit.gl.videoplane objects, writing to a single jit.world.

I have made parameters to spread the videos spatially (i.e. evenly distribute) across 

For the most part, this all works ok. The videos all show up fine and the spatial distribution works. 

The issue I am having is with what seems to be a kind of grouping or chunking behaviour in the way that the multiple videos are rendered. For example: 

When the videos are overlapping on the x plane, I would expect them to all overlap in the same direction (like fanning cards), but they seem to overlap randomly. To get them to fan out like cards, I have to put a non-zero value into the 

 spread, so that they're actually in order in front of one another in space.

I can live with that workaround, however, the next issue (which feels related to me) occurs when I use blending. For example, when I set all my jit.gl.videoplane Blend Enable attributes to 'ON', and Blend attributes to 'add', I get this:

I'm not sure if I have misunderstood something, but I would expect the additive blending effect to compound across all videos. To me this looks like the first four videos from the left are additively blending, but then the four in the middle are normal, then a bit more additive blending in the last four panels but not in the way I would expect.

Does anyone have an explanation for what might cause the jit.gl.videoplane objects to display this way? Or whether there's a way to force them to render in a particular order, or to blend globally?

I think it probably isn't important, but just in case it is, I have a jit.gl.slab in between each of the jit.gl.movie/jit.gl.videoplane pairs, running the shader 'cc.brcosa.jxs'.

i'm continuously experiencing problem loading max by opening a patcher that includes some rnbo~ . quite every time I obtain this:

rnbobuildserver: Unable to get gRPC URI and WebSocket port from codegen server
could not initialize RNBO classes, no response from server
error 13: Failed to create client channel
could not retrieve target API version
error 13: Failed to create client channel
Could not connect to RNBO buildserver !
rnbo~: rnbopatcher extension not found, editing of rnbo patchers disabled

after the first error, only a complete system reboot fixes (and not always) the block. Any advice? I'm on windows 11.. latest versions of max and rnbo installed.
