hi schnorginator and cone masters, i have a few questions relating to the psychedelic filter. i am wondering if perhaps you could enlighten me on how to ammend the code to remove the box as i have next to no experience with code and even after studying the link provided by vlc_help i cant even decipher which parameters would need changed, nor do i know if i would need to be working in a particular coding environment to make the necessary ammendments, in truth i am clueless about this so any help would be so greatly appreciated. also is there any way of changing the box to another shape or even a graphic? and can the starting hue/orientation of the colour cycle effect be modified in any way?

thanks in advance for your assistance

If you haven't studied C programming, changing anything will be quite complex operation. And yes, you can modify anything that the filter does.

thanks for such a rapid reply, well in that case i suppose my next question is would anyone be able to point me in the direction of the artisticly motivated C programmers who hang out in these forums because i'm hoping that with the help of good manners and perhaps a screencapture or two of the artwork i've been creating with vlc that someone might be willing to help me out in this respect!

thanks again for your response.

You could try VLC IRC channel in case someone is interested.

Thanks for the advice, i'll try that.

thanks again for your response.

i think u might be able to just comment out stuff like line 47, talking abt a 'static' image. Lines 138-142 might be just that.
