Magic Music Visuals

I found the same thing with depth testing the shader output. I came to the same conclusion as you

one way that might be easier than editing all the source videos is playing it with something else, applying the mask to the composition, then bringing it into magic with spout/syphon and using the same solution you came up with.

however, using the GLSL AlphaMask (to get the specific shape of the screen) is not elevating the object to the same 3D region...perhaps this is a limitation of the shader?...

Hmm, you're right! I think this is a bug actually. I'll see what I can do.

You may be able to do this with unity via spout 2

I think I've fixed this in v1.53 (beta). Just make sure the Model module is the bottom input to the Depth Test module, so the video will be rendered on top, as shown in the images below.

Notice the difference in rotation angle, so you can see how the video is obscured by the cube when it's on the back side.

Have extra features for this been added ?

No! There's been new features added since 2014 but not for model textures.
