Hi,
We're working with Core Video to play back videos @ 1024 x 768 resolution.
The videos are stacked on top of one another and revealed as a user draws over top of them. To achieve this "drawing into" the stack of videos, we're filtering using CIImage to create alpha masks over top of an individual video.
Playback is very choppy, and we haven't been able to determine if it's the compression we're using (i.e. the video assets themselves) or anything to do with the combination of Core Video, Core Image & the 1024x768 format.
Some problems we're facing is that even if we're only using 2 videos and not doing any filtering, the videos lag.
We initially we compressed our original files out, so that the overall file size is much smaller. Even still, with 2 movies @ approx. 50MB each we're having problems.
Using TOP, from terminal, to overall system usage we're getting results that the system is chewing up to 180% cpu.
We'd be really greatful for any help on whether this is an asset, a code, or a compression issue (or all three).
Cheers,
Travis_______________________________________________
