Magic Music Visuals

Sadler - THANK YOU! It is working now, and now I'll just have to figure out how to make the rest of the controls show up. I think it's similar to the controls in the Color Smears. Maybe I can fiddle with it. At least it shows up and doesn't turn the screen to black. Thanks again!

Sadler, Sorry, the Watercolor Smear does not have a .vs file. How would one go about getting one of those? All I am able to do is copy the HTML link here: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/wdsSRX and paste it into the MMV Shadertoy to ISF converter here: https://magicmusicvisuals.com/utils/shadertoy_to...

That's the really weird thing about the Watercolor Smear. It USED to have connections. I used it primarily in MMV. I can use it in Apple Motion, though, if necessary, but that's the last resort. I'm saying, I spent 4 days making a 2 hour mix of videos, using MMV to produce the video clips. Shader's ...

That's the thing - they used to work fine. The Sort Smear 01 and 02 both hook up, and if I click on the connecting line, I can add the Watercolor Smear. They have inputs and outputs. If I run a video through them, using the Video File Player, I get no visuals. Not even if I clear the buffer. What is...

These three shaders: Sort Smear 01 Sort Smear 02 Watercolor Smear All used to work with MMV, but now they do not. They work fine in ISF Editor as well, and 'mostly' in Apple Motion. Not a coder, not sure what changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can copy/cut/edit code, but I don't know ...

Well, looks like I made a bunch of mistakes - glad nothing I messed up was important! Thanks for the help, I'll be doing some re-building.

It's almost as if the file overwrite of the Magic beta transferred some, but not all of the shaders. In fact, my folder structure remains the same, there's just some shaders that are no longer there. How bizarre.

Hiya Eric - I'll break down those sentences a little cleaner this time 1. I used the official latest release to work on videos with all sorts of shaders last month. - The shaders were placed in a folder that I accessed via 'right clicking', pulling up the pop-up window in Magic - All shaders appeare...

Hi there Eric / others - I used Magic with great success about a month ago, making a bunch of edited videos with some amazing shaders. I downloaded and am playing with the beta. In the specially prepared folder I made for the shaders that I use, shaders are either actually missing (have disappeared)...

Well, made some pretty neat effects, but I think this is definitely more suited towards actual 3D .obj files. I'm sure there's another way to do fake this with 2D images/video, but I'll have to figure it out. It's no easy task, that's for sure!

Whoa! Neat! Thank you for sharing that - I'm going to give it a try. I really love that look, for some unknown reason. So, thank you again.

Ambient Occlusion seems to have a great variety of names, these are the names that I know it by. Are there any GLSL or .FS or .VS or Shadertoy or any other kind of filter that might do this in Magic Music Visuals? I have been just LOVING this application, used it for an entire week for an odd-job. N...
