Video Manipulation

This example demonstrates basic video playback and effects processing in ossia score.

Overview

ossia score can play video files and apply real-time shader effects, with parameters that can be animated or controlled by audio.

ISF shaders

ISF (Interactive Shader Format) is a standard for video effects:

• Hundreds of free shaders available
• Parameters auto-exposed for control
• GPU-accelerated processing
• Compatible with other ISF hosts

Working with video

To use video in your projects:

1. Drag a video file onto the timeline
2. Add ISF effects from the process library
3. Connect them with cables
4. Control parameters with automation or audio

Try it

Open this example to see video effects in action. Try adjusting the effect parameters!
