Originally posted by DJ_Bod I tried putting this on my comp, and it didn't work very well. My comp isn't exactly "top of the line" but I still think it should have ran at more than 2 frames per second (that's how it looked at least). I tried messing around with the settings, but I got nowhere in an hour, so I gave up. My system (in case there's something there that might help figure out why it wouldn't work right): 1.3 GHz AMD Processor 512 MB RAM Inno3d Tornado vid card (GeForce2) Windows 98 SE Winamp 5.xx (can't remember off hand) EDIT: Got the new DirectX (9, I believe) I do not have dual monitors

Strange, I've succesfully tested it on a 400Mhz with a GForce 1 ..?!?
Must be something strange going on..

Do you have the latest NVidia detonator drivers installed for your vidcard..?
And the latest motherboard-chipset drivers ?
For example Via4in1 if you have a Via chipset - I've once seen a GForce3 do 1.5fps in 3dmark2001 without them.. and 30fps with)

Just guessing here though, no good way to find out without me sitting at your pc I'm afraid..

Edit:
Is it by any chance a Geforce2 MX ?

I'm not 100% sure if it's an MX or not. When I get home from work, I'll look.

But, I don't think I have the latest drivers for it. from what I remember, I just installed what I needed to to get my PC to run after my latest reformat. I will try to find new drivers for it too. It couldn't hurt.

After I do that, I will definitely post if I got it to work.

Update - Right now I'm working on a control-panel so you can have some live-input on the effects (with multi-monitor support - fullscreen display on the videobeamer, control-panel on the 2nd monitor ),
and I'm trying to get support for content-packs in.
That way you can have different sets of scripts/images/videos to match your taste.

For example Ambient-, Drum&Bass, Techno, Psy-trance, Disco-style packs.
(And the ability to tell BH to use 1 or more of those configurations at the same time )

Whoops, forgot to post.... (actually the post got poushed into the abyss of the second page, and I forgot bout it)

Yeah, I got it to work by updating the mobo-chipset drivers.

2 words: HOLY CRAP! Definitely the best PI I've seen in a while. good job.

Very cool plugin, great job!

I was in awe when I saw Scream 2 playing in the background. Amazing that you used mpegs and tv-input in your plugin!

Is there a pro version of this available for purchase without the adds and such? I'm not quite 100% willing to buy but you never know...

Thank you for all the nice comments

About 'buying' - I don't think I'll ever make a commercial version out of it.
Is the "commercial use" warning really that annoying ..?
It should only display for 10 seconds every 5 minutes,
I didn't think it would be 'too' annoying for home-use..
And it's the only thing I have to make sure that whenever someone here wants to use it at a party, they contact me for a version without - and I can get in for free
Edit: Hey, I just figured something out !
I think in the next release I'll remove the big BH from the logo, so there's only the line "www.beatharness.com" left... that should be at least a bit less annoying

By the way, I've scripted another couple of (imho) very cool effects & transitions,
they will be in the next release & update version,
along with a control-panel to change parameters on-the-fly like effect-duration, transition-duration, audio-sensitivity etc.
This makes it easy to run BH fullscreen on a videobeamer, while interacting with it on a second monitor !

Once again thanks for the nice replies,
it's really inspiring to know some people seem to like it as much as I do


Edit:
Oh, and a few video-tips that work really well in BH :
- Orbital DVD videos
- Underworld DVD videos
- the oldskool "The Mind's Eye", "Beyond the mind's eye" etc.
- Cannibal Holocaust
- mpegs from www.electricsheep.org


Edit2:
And I would really appreciate it if you like BH that you spread the word
More people using it = more input & testing
