Nice work 🙂

@mark : we did look into this a lot b4 shanghai but in the end we needed "heads" for the individual machines anyway so it was no issue. Most of the documentation I have found on this in the past has been in server forums where the issue is getting the most out of the GPU in server racks where no monitors are attached. Do a search for "headless server" to get into some seriously nerdy stuff. you can also get the dummies on ebay, just search for DVI EDID emulator or VGA emulator http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xdvi+emulator&_nkw=dvi+emulator&_sacat=0 fubbi

It is yes Alex.

And no problem; glad it worked 🙂

Capture Stage to Disk Actor!

nice tool so far, to start this click Output, click start capture, dialog Save window opens, over and over again every time starting Isdora. Quit do you want to delete the captured media, NO!!!!!

Looking forward to test Isadora v.2 demo features, learned could be november….

BTW please do pictures in PNG if possible. I can not view JPG/TIFF directly in my browser for some reason.

@Mark
sorry just saw your comment,
yes that's right!

all the best

Worked perfectly for my needs! Thanks again.

For anyone curious, I'm working with a Rocky Horror shadowcast and we are doing a version of the famous scene in Spaceballs where they pull up the video of Spaceballs within the movie. So we are filming the preshows and capturing the file to disk while that is happening. Then when we get to the Spaceballs scene we play back the video at high speed and eventually cut over to a live feed projecting on the screen. We've done it for 15+ years but used to film a dress rehearsal so the file with fast forwarding was all pre-rendered. Last year we used Izzy for it for the first time but there was much less video to scrub through so 10x was a fine speed. This year the scene is much later so we have more video to scrub and the envelope generator worked perfectly.

I made my test with a HD Camera connected in HDMI to a Blackmagic Studio, setting are 1920x1080, 25fps, best quality, the background is a Prores 1920x1080 25fps movie. The subject ( myself 😉 ) was on an very approximative green screen ( in terms of light and regularity). In that very basic conditions, the result was surprisingly good... So I am impatient to test in better conditions.
But it is still less impressive than what Resolume 4 is able to do with the same sources : much better soften edge, acurate color setting, little less latency...
It seems this FFGL has been writen almost 5 years ago. May be there is today some way to "refresh" the code? If only the feather function was efficient... No little genius around to have a look inside the code? 🙂

Right, actually, sorry for the extra question here. I've done the test myself and external USB 3.0 runs much more smoothly. No problem. Thank you Michel!

Can i use the TCP send data actor to send a wake on lan to another computer ? and if yes how 

You can replicate it by using lines to get the cross hair (yellow) and using a red box - both done vida the shapes actor.

You need to scale all the vales but i've done it before.

Cheers John,

Thats very useful info! I will look into NImate right now.  We are not looking for a perfect mask (if anything i will add more gaussian blur to the incoming syphon) so it does feel like this could be the perfect solution. Thanks for your valuable input! Henri

Thanks @dbini for coming to spend time with us, and for insightful comments after the show. Was really good to link up in person with someone from this community...

Take care m

Sounds great!

Hello, has anybody tried Yosemite with matrox dual analog? (works with 10.8.5)

For Quartz Composer ninjas here's a nice tutorial how to setup GLSL shaders in QC,

[http://destroythingsbeautiful.com/2013/01/10/converting-glsl-shaders-for-use-in-quartz-composer-and-vdmx/](http://destroythingsbeautiful.com/2013/01/10/converting-glsl-shaders-for-use-in-quartz-composer-and-vdmx/) I'm new to the RT performance world so apologies if this is old news.

@chimerik

the tutorial on Javascript for Isadora might be worth a read.

Hi,

As mentioned in the title, I cant find a similar effect like motion blur, for CI or Texture/FFGL. If I run a simple Picture player trough the normal Motion Blur in the video mode, my frames get low. No problems with really heavy FFGL effects processing via texture picture player.

I was just posting to say I still don't understand how to do this but I think I've got it now.

You have to click the 'show source' icon which sometimes becomes the 'show rich text' icon?

I'm just going to try it now

If that's alright with you guys
