Storing bytes to image or texture from udpin for performance boost

Beginners

Hi there,

I just worked out how to send data over udp from one machine to another on the same network, but I’ve noticed that the the tables use up a bunch of my frame rate just representing the text visibly. Is there a way with python in the udpin_callback to instead send the bytes somewhere that doesn’t suffer from visibly representation like a TOP of some sort? Thanks!

I found the script TOP, but is this the only way to create TOPs or images with data and python code? Or is there a way to set data on other Operators? sorry to expand the question a bit.

Did you ever find a way to do this? I’m looking for the same…

you can use Script CHOP and Script TOP. Using their copyNumpyArray() methods they’re both very fast in writing large amounts of data. See documentation for both nodes and Help-> Operator Snippets.
