Printing text on screen from module.

Postby video_wonder_boy » 17 May 2020 15:10

I want to print some text on a screen from within a video filter module.

I am writing a new module similar to the gradient module. i would like to overlay some text
on the screen of my new module. It seems that using the marq module would do this for me.
However, how can I load the marq module from within my create routine? Are there API calls
that will allow me to load a different module?

Or is there a different method of writing text onto a screen from within the module's filter
routine?

I can't find any examples of doing this. Of course there are ways of overlaying text using
command line arguments but that does not give me access from within my filter routine.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Pete.
