Livecoding and hacking with OPENRNDR 05
In the first four videos I did try to make a tiny bit "educational", in the sense of showing how I built a simple program from scratch. This video is different and probably makes no sense π It is a proof of concept and very experimental. It all started with the previous video, in which I learned I could have transparent borderless windows, which I thought was cool for live coding. But I was not happy about the fact that I could not blend my visuals on top of the code (for instance, by using the ADD blend mode). Also, my program could not "see" the text. It was basically two windows, the top one (my visuals) not knowing what is under it (the IDE). Today I remember that it's possible to do screen capture using `VideoPlayerFFMPEG.fromScreen()`. The issue with that is that my program would capture itself, creating a feedback loop, because by default it grabs the whole screen (including itself). But then I took a look at ffmpeg and realized that you can specify a `-window_id` parameter
