…ries over every frame One host processor in the virtual-camera showcase takes fragment GLSL as config, lands each frame device-to-device in a texture it owns, and draws the shader over it as one fullscreen pass. Grayscale, vignette and pixelate ship beside it, each proven against a CPU reference over a buffer-backed frame, and a shader that does not compile is refused at setup naming the compiler's diagnostic while the rest of the graph keeps running.

Alias the input decorator import.
If Ruff runs from the repository root, ruff.toml enables rule group A, and this import can trigger A004. Rename the import and update @input to use the alias.

Summary
One
ShaderEffectprocessor in the virtual-camera showcase takes a fragment shader as config, so a new look is a few lines of GLSL instead of a new processor.examples/camera-virtual-camera/processors/shader_effect.pyhas a dataclass config:fragment_glsl, plussampled_input_binding_name, which defaults toupstream_frame.setup()builds a graphics kernel from a shared fullscreen-triangle vertex stage and the configured fragment stage. Each frame is copied GPU-to-GPU into a texture the effect owns, drawn into its own output ring, and sent on as the upstream bag with onlysurface_idswapped. Capture stamp and colour metadata are kept, andtexture_layoutis dropped.resolve_planned_surface_bound_kernel_bindings). The copy goes through DLPack withcupy, the same waycamera-halftoneandcamera-python-effectsalready do it. On the rig, both the frame and the landing texture report DLPack device(2, 0)(CUDA), so no pixel reaches the host.into=VideoFrameWithTheBagItArrivedIn. Its constructor buildsVideoFrame(**bag)while the typed read is offering the claim.setup()asShaderEffect could not build its pass fromfragment_glsl…, followed by glslang's own diagnostic. The engine refuses that processor by display name and the rest of the graph keeps running. The same wrapper covers a wrongsampled_input_binding_name.processors/shaders/:grayscale.frag,vignette.frag,pixelate.frag.rt.addform, the shader contract, and swapping a look into the running app over MCP.pyproject.tomladdscupy-cuda13x, raises the floor tostreamlib>=0.22.1(config classes arrived in 0.21.0), and adds adevpytest group.The ticket body was corrected before implementation, and the owner confirmed the plan. Two claims had drifted: a draw can't sample a camera frame directly, and tests can't go in the wheel suite because a test never reaches into

rt.add(ShaderEffect, config={"fragment_glsl": ...})between a source and a sink shows the shader's result at the source's rate, with no host copy of pixels per frame. DLPack devices were CUDA on both sides of the copy.

Example-local tests (
examples/camera-virtual-camera/tests/,uv run pytest, needs an NVIDIA GPU, no CI presence per §Consumers): 4 passed on the RTX 3090. They ran against the in-tree build, andreview-prreran them against the published 0.22.1 wheel from a freshuv sync.test_a_shipped_look_renders_the_cpu_reference_over_a_buffer_backed_frame[grayscale|vignette|pixelate]: a buffer-backed 64×48 known pattern (camera-shaped) goes throughShaderEffectinto a sink that reads one pixel back withframe.cpu(), compared against the same maths on the CPU (±2). Each pixel is chosen where the look changes the pattern, so a pass-through can't pass.test_a_look_that_does_not_compile_is_refused_at_setup_and_the_graph_keeps_running: a broken shader sits beside a working grayscale chain. The test asserts the engine'sSetup failed … [ShaderEffect 2]record, thefragment_glsl-naming message and glslang'sno_such_functiondiagnostic, then ten more correct frames from the working chain after the refusal.review-prmutation-checked these.

The showcase ran understreamlib devwithSTREAMLIB_CAMERA_DEVICE=/dev/video0, and a JSON-RPC client onPOST /mcpcalledremove_processoronInvertingEffect, thenadd_processorforprocessors.shader_effect:ShaderEffect(grayscale) and twoconnects. The same was then done again to swap in vignette.ffmpegread both virtual cameras the whole time:CameraSource, both sinks and the API server kept the same thread ids (32/34/35/36) before, between and after the swaps.Frames grabbed from the effect's virtual camera: vignette (centre ≈ passthrough, corner 11,1,11 vs 84,8,74) and grayscale (R=G=B), with the passthrough camera for comparison:
Pixelate was proven by its pixel test only, not grabbed live (see the first note).
Notes for owner
VirtualCameraSink(existing issue, not caused by this change). After the effect upstream of a sink has been re-spliced, a one-shot reader (ffmpeg -frames:v 1) opening and closing on its device can leave the sink logginga frame arrived with every buffer queuedfor every frame, and the next reader of that device hangs. The same thing happened withInvertingEffectspliced four times, with noShaderEffectinvolved. The passthrough sink, never re-spliced, was unaffected, and a reader held open across splices never saw it. Root cause is undiagnosed (reclaim_dequeued_buffersnever gets the buffers back). Not filed; say if you want a ticket.sustained GpuContextLimitedAccess::escalate ratewarns for every per-frame kernel user. One draw per frame is one escalate round trip by design, soShaderEffectlogs the warning every 5 s at 30 fps, andInvertingEffecttriggers it too. The warning's advice ("needs more pre-reservation in setup()") doesn't apply to a kernel dispatch.VirtualCameraSinkafter about 9 minutes. It failed withFailed to create device-local image: A device memory allocation has failed. This was seen only in my scratch feeder (acquire per frame,close()the oldest of 6), not in a camera or anything in the tree. A fixed ring of 6 buffers did not reproduce it. Possibly per-surface-id caching in the sink; unverified.color_info/timestamp_nsreaching the sink), and a guard against sliding back toas_numpy(). Neither is in the ticket's validation shape.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
