VideoBiasLight - Dynamic Light That Reacts to Videos

Plugins + Scripts VideoBiasLight - Dynamic Light That Reacts to Videos

Download [<1 MB]
- Added support for AptSmartTV atoms, so now the plug-in supports ImagePanels and AptSmartTVs
- Light now follows the screen when moved or rotated
- Light now starts dark and turns off when video stops instead of glowing white
- Major performance improvement: video sampling no longer stalls the GPU (async readback)
- New Shadow Type drop-down: choose Hard or Soft shadows. Hard is now the default as they are cheaper and look cleaner
- Update Interval can now go as low as 0.02s for faster color response
- Fixed a possible error when disabling the plugin
- minor cleanup
- Added the ability to switch between a spotlight and point light.
- made sampling center weighted like a real tv

While the point light gives a more realistic glow, the spotlight might come in handy for some in certain scenarios.
- Fixed bugs that caused the light to stay in the scene when the plug-in was disabled, or image panel removed by properly parenting the light to the panel
- various other fixes to improve performance
- sampling was actually broken in last version due to bad code, fixed it and whole image is sampled
- point light moved slightly forward to get rid of light behind panel
- ability to disable shadows which can greatly increase performance if the light from the screen overlaps with a VAM light
- saturation setting, can increase/decrease saturation (you will not see immediate results, the scene in the video needs to change color enough to trigger the update)
- contrast setting, can increase/decrease contrast (you will not see immediate results, the scene in the video needs to change color enough to trigger the update)
- plug-in is now better behaved, checking and unchecking it will clear light and resources properly
