Package paletai.mapping

Class GenerativeMediaItem

java.lang.Object

paletai.mapping.MediaItem

paletai.mapping.GenerativeMediaItem

public class GenerativeMediaItem
extends MediaItem

A specialized MediaItem subclass for generative content.

Extends MediaItem to handle content generated programmatically by LunaContentGenerator implementations rather than from static media files. Provides custom rendering that integrates generative content with the homography transformation system.

Key features:

• Integration with LunaContentGenerator framework
• Custom rendering pipeline for dynamic content
• Automatic thumbnail generation from generator output
• Inherits all homography transformation capabilities from MediaItem

See Also:

• MediaItem
• LunaContentGenerator

Parameters:

p - The parent PApplet instance

generator - The content generator to use for this media item

screenIndex - The screen index this media is assigned to

mediaId - Unique identifier for this media item

GenerativeMediaItem

public GenerativeMediaItem(processing.core.PApplet p,
 LunaContentGenerator generator,
 processing.data.XML mediaXML)

Constructs a GenerativeMediaItem from XML configuration. Recreates a generative media item from saved project data.

Parameters:

p - The parent PApplet instance

generator - The content generator to use for this media item

mediaXML - XML element containing media configuration

See Also:

Method Details

render

public void render()

Renders the generative content with homography transformation bypassing mediaCanvas. Updates the generator, applies homography transformation to the generator's output graphics, and generates thumbnails when needed.

This override provides a custom rendering pipeline that integrates the dynamic generator output with the VidMap transformation system.

Overrides:
