Hi all,

what's the way to get the AllocateBufferFX?

but still my vpBuffers == 0x000000;

Any help ?

Did you add the "Post Effect" Buffer in the multipass settings in cinema 4d? This is necessary, otherwise it will be NULL.

This Code always return
videoBufferStatusAndDepth[rIndex].vpbuffers == NULL

Are you allocating the buffer in VideoPostData::AllocateBuffers()? And if so, why are you also calling GetBuffer in the same virtual routine? You should call GetBuffer in Execute if I remember correctly. Definetly not inside AllocateBuffers()!

Hello Katachi

still not working.
I've allocate buffers in:
virtual void AllocateBuffers(PluginVideoPost* node, Render* render, BaseDocument* doc)

and Assigned them to my array in Execute... still 0x00000000

thanks for your suggestion

Hmm, it should work. Here is some code that should get you going. I think it´s maybe that you try to get it either too early (or maybe too late...I cannot really remember, this is old code) :
