.FS shaders stopped working - why?

Questions
1

I’ve been fooling around with these shaders for a few months, and they’ve suddenly stopped working in Magic Music Visuals. They kinda/sorta work in Apple Motion, but seem to be missing a few sliders. Any clue as to why they won’t work?

I zipped up the following shaders:
Sort Smear 01
Sort Smear 02
Watercolor Smear

Shaders.zip (4.2 KB)

Hey! I tried with ISF editor. Watercolor is working and for the 2 Smear shaders, you have to delete varying declaration and will work.
Good luck

Could you elaborate what varying declarations are?

Yes please, what are varying declarations? I’m a rudimentary user, I can edit the code, but please be more specific? Edit meaning cut/copy/paste. I have NO IDEA what it does. I’m a music composer, not a coder.

Do you mean this?

varying vec2 left_coord;
varying vec2 right_coord;
varying vec2 above_coord;
varying vec2 below_coord;

If so, is there anything else?

Yes, delete varying and save file and will work. Good luck

Tried that, and it still didn’t work. I’m using them in Magic Music Visuals. Most importantly, the Watercolor Smear is the one that doesn’t work at all, unless I put it in Apple Motion.
