if you want to make a live stream, i would use obs and pd /gem
the video output from gem as a layer in obs.
dividing tasks seems simpler.

what is the output definition in pixels ?

&gt; Hi list,<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; for a project I&#39;m considering if I should use Gem or processing. T=
he purpose is to map the live playback of a piece of music into a poster wi=
th the score of around 2200x1100cm, by marking which notes and layers are a=
ctive.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; The patch is controlled live by Pd, possibly at some point the score i=
tself might also be projected as well (9090 x 4545 px at 150dpi).<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; The development is being done in windows, but it&#39;s possible that i=
t will have to run on mac or linux. Considering these remarks, is there any=
 reason not to use the newest Pd version, or avoid Gem?<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; The projection=C2=A0itself will be very simple, using some colors for =
the playback line and other layers, color transitions, etc. Not taxing for =
the cpu at all.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Best,<br>
