Changes in this version:
- Quicktime audio playback has been re-implemented as fallback solution for movie files with soundtrack not supported by FFMpeg. GrandVJ 1.2 should be able to play sound from 99.9% of the movies files you throw at it :)
- We’ve added an Audio setup panel in Preferences, giving the ability to choose both input and output devices as well as their buffer size:

- Fixed the problem with Layer preview switching when using an nVidia graphics card on Windows 7.
- Enhanced graphic engine performances on Mac, giving the ability to play high-definition visuals even more smoothly.
- Two new demo patches are available and we’ve reorganized the Default Content folder with a new selection of visuals from the DVD that comes with the box. These visuals have been kindly provided by various artists, be sure to have a look at the “about” pdf in each folder of visuals.

About processing/generative/particle content, you should take a look at brand new Quartz-Composer support in GrandVJ 1.2, which adds virtually unlimited new content/effects possibilities to the software.
