There was a Quartz Keystroke emulator, but it has obviously been deprecated.

If using the Projector actor to layer, you will need to change the 'blend' to opaque, and ensure the top layers set to a higher layer number than your background. (or the projector actors are located below the previous projectors in the patch, since Isadora reads/renders top to bottom). You will also need to set the scale to resize the image (defaults to fit the output).

My preferred way to composite in this manner is to use the 'Matte' actors, they allow you to drop an image on another rather easily, and by changing the scale setting, you can have your slide dropped on at 100% size which avoids any resizing blur.

@bonemap Many thanks, will give it a go

Hi.

Just to say this patch is fantastic. Just so many options for an on the fly change.

I would have little to no knowledge of Resolve but that is very handy for stuff in general.

I tip my cap to your abilities.

Many thanks

@michel. Thanks Michel!  AS always - fine work.

A few gotchas;

If you wish to use your Console / Nomad during sending commands within Isadora you have to use so-called "Users".

ETC EOS has one primary user and a secondary user. What happens when Isadora is sending commands as a primary user it will clear your command bar.. And that is real shitty when you are working on some stuff during your show 🙂 (In Blind mode ofc)

You should set all the OSC commands to User 2, Secondary user. That way your command bar is never cleared since that is our Primary user.

You can simply do this by adding /user/2/ to the command.

The above example will be /eos/user/2/cue/[cuenumber]/fire

@dillthekraut i see what you mean, that's helped, thanks

@jfg Yes, great! Thanks a lot for your quick response!

@aidan

Glad you have worked it out. I have run into these same issues. Cubemaps can be maddening.

@dillthekraut

finally  works,  thank  u so  much !

I need just a thing, for obtain an integer to float which actor i should use??

There really is no need for this. You can simply connect an integer point output to any floating point input. I'm not sure why you would need a converter.

Do you mean the option Recording Stage from the Output menu? 

If yes you must change the size of your stage in the stage Setup… menu to get a 4x3 stage size.

@bonemap Will do. Thanks again for your insights and support!  - John

OK, I wasn't sure what to call this post, but it is a bit of fun, and may be helpful.

Sounds like an ambitious project!

I thought 999 was the limit, but I just checked and I was able to import over 1000 images into Isadora using the current public release:

Where did you find the 999 as a limit for media files? If you were trying with a different type of file and it stopped you from importing more than 999 into a bin, one thing to test is to fill the default bin with 999 pieces of media, create a second media bin of the same time, then right-click on the new bin and select "Import Media Into Bin.." from the menu and see if the second bin can have 999 more pieces of media imported into it. 

If there is a limit of 999 somewhere, a workaround would be to have multiple Isadora files open at the same time, each maxed out on the number of pictures and use Broadcasters and Listeners to control the secondary file + receive video from it.

@dusx Great! I could remember I did this a long long time ago, but could find it anywhere anymore. 🙂

Thanks!

the work around quickly at least tripples the editing time and makes it much more complex (I see, that this example is an extreme, anyway). Especialy if you have different data types (string, integer, etc.) you have to adjust all of them manualy. Let alone the naming of the in and outputs.

Unfortunately, this is kind of the only way I can think of, but you could use JSON Parser and JSON Bundler from the Add-Ons Page to make your life a bit easier (hopefully)

It appears at the present time we may not be able to use the Apple Audio Unit (AU) plugins with Isadora User Actors. I also use the AU modules a lot for audio routing and frequency analysis. It does appear to be shifting ground with a lot of repatching required for those older projects including those that implemented QuickTime options that are no longer.

That said the new Sound Player routing is brilliant - although some additional functionality to include in-patch output selection and the option to route for loopback input in the Live Capture Settings would be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes

@dusx great news! Thanks for your assistance too - the work around with Blackhole did the job!
