Official PR from me, original: #1536

PREACH 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[Drago-Cuven]

pleeease merge.

[LSPECTRONIZTAR]

pleeease merge.

WHAT HE SAID
get garbo muffin in this one

[GarboMuffin]

is there a reason why we still want "get frame at time" with a forced 1 frame delay instead of "get frame at current time" that can return immediately?

How can you do that? The only thing I can think of is pre starting the video at the frame

i thought it was fixed?

the block currently seeks the video to a time then draws it to a canvas and returns the image. "get frame at current time" would just not seek and instead draw it and return immediately

Well I could add that as well @GarboMuffin . I personally think it's more tedious to get the frame of a video that's already currently playing. IMO people want this block so they can get another frame while the video is playing and so it doesn't add more blocks to the project...

[GarboMuffin]

Ok but the current design is not good for that either because it will seek the video that is already playing just to get one frame out of it. Presumably people would then have to seek back to where it was before. And again, forced 1 frame delay.

What do people want this for?

What do people want this for?

i want it to display videos in a 3d scene for my 3d remake of osu! (which will be fire) and since there isn't a 3d rotate extension and just streching and resizing won't give the good effect I was gonna draw triangles with pen+

I'm not sure how much this block would even help you

if only you could see what it was going to be like

[LSPECTRONIZTAR]

no video i guess

[GarboMuffin]

Converting the video to a URL with the extension as proposed is a forced 1 frame delay, and then converting that back to an actual image will be another forced 1 frame delay, nevermind whatever else you want to do with pen+, so the video could at best run at 50% of the project's framerate. really the only viable approach here is playing the video on a sprite using the blocks that are already there and asking for a way to apply arbitrary shaders/whatever onto a sprite

I don't get it
and also the entire engine is drawn in one singular sprite, the game the environment everything

[LSPECTRONIZTAR]

I think it's a great idea the frame 0.5x update is better than no update

There is a pen+ addon for that but it's not on the tw gallery due to it's nature being an addon to an extension.

can i have the addon i really need it

Hello

Garbo, this is really helpful for any sort of 3d scene, pen usage, and could possibly even enable pen+ shader overlay (assuming it's not already a thing.) This allows for all sorts of innovative creations and even I intend to use this when merged. At some point I already stated before, if this isn't merged I'd literally download the js file and use it over the original myself. It's THAT useful. That being said, I do agree there should also be a get frame at current time to avoid that extra frametime.
