  • added classes: fork, jmax_udpsend, jmax_udpreceive
  • added classes: @rotate, @remap_image, @type
  • added operators: gcd,lcm (common divisors/multiples)
  • quicktime: added encoding, added seek, fixed bugs
  • @in inlet 1 tells frame number (int), end-of-file (bang)
  • @in: added: set, option loop (controlling auto-rewind)
  • updated cross_fade.jmax (much faster)
  • @two,@three,@four allow inlet 0 bang trigger
  • configure: simpler config for jMax 2.5

matju,

It’s good to see another release of GridFlow!

In the future could you please prefix your releases with [ANN]? It makes the
RWN preparation process a lot less arduous-- something that really counts in
weeks totalling 700+ posts.

Thanks again :slight_smile:

Important note to PD folks: this version includes a jmax->pd translator
(as a ruby script). it’s not very solid yet, but I’ve included all the
example patches it was able to translate.
