I did do something - I didn't restart the computer after upgrading. The icon showed b12, but it opened b4. I restarted and all is well. Sorry for the false alarm!

So I got my patch working in  v 1.5.3 and then it got slower and slower, the sound stopped playing so I toggled the players and all was well again. Decided to switch to laptop and the program crashed on quitting. So I copied the first 30-odd lines and tried to submit a bug report. That doesn't work now... what does this mean?

If you look at the boygrouping function in vvvv it (with some preparation) do a pretty good version of what you want. There are huge differences to video and audio obviously so not all of your VE pro parallels will work but it is pretty advanced. As above if you need to pass frames between machines it is not easy. I often use a setup with a hardware video mixer with 3 aux feeds. All the computers output to the mixer, all cameras also go the computer and capture boxes on all machines are hooked up to the aux outputs of the switcher. This means I can pass any signal to and from anywhere, including passing the output of one machine to the input of another for further or simultaneous processing (one machine taksa camera and does motion analysis and another takes the camera to generate live key effects and data is shared.

This was pretty rudimentary to setup and could have become a very advanced system had I needed it to be. This in conjunction with something like the vvvv boygrouoping and a file server and high speed network would get you what you want, you could access any singla and any file from any machine and combine and mix outputs of several computers to make a composite image. There is no out of the box solution but boygrouping takes care of most of the KVM hassle and a file server and a hardware video matrix and capture cards let any image go anywhere for processing, the rest is your imagination. Oh and by the way even with this setup if you are creative about distributing the work the latency in a system like this can be quite low (I can get 3 frames in to out with processing)

Thanks a lot for replies,
I understand camera naming but device id recognition is interesting for stability and assignation (imagine a 15 different set up in isadora and being obliged to reassign each one is a hard thing;-*...)

But as i'm quite new to isa, users may have a solution to send camera input to all scenes at the same time?
through a macro maybe?

I only experienced crashes

in bad wireless set up with jailbroken device,
nevertheless, despite jailbreak seems shity it offers a lot of interesting things by modifying os, design is sadly the main but also features regarding background status of apps (maybe a way to go further than apple restriction and let epoccam working backgrounded while openning touch osc to send accel and gyro datas... didn't test yet ...) but also when a cam is connecting, which is a problem to change the set up on stage (switching on device, or connecting back after connection lost)

Nice to hear everything is fine on IOS 8.0.2

Sorry kinoni I just tested data weight again on video transmission i confirm what you said:
0,15mb/s for 640/480
doubble
0,3mb/s for 1280/720
logical 😉

Mac or Windows? What version? Does it crash on a specific scene? need a bit more info please?

Problem solved from the Face Book page, thanks all 🙂 b394ac-screen-shot-2014-09-28-at-22.20.01.jpg df28cd-screen-shot-2014-09-28-at-23.09.29.jpg

After a bit of research it does seem like the Mavericks codec or container problem at the bottom of this.

If I set the compression codec to Hap, Hap Alpha, H.264 or ProRes4444 the stage records, and captured files can be read directly in Isadora, but as above they'll all need to be imported in QT7Pro and recompressed before they'll show up in the Finder quickview, or used by some other apps. Other codecs might work too, but after a bit of success with these ones creating files that could be converted later I didn't check them all to see if one creates a file that can be read directly by QTX or the Finder immediately.  I'd mistaken the Finder's difficulties for "failed" recordings, but once reprocessed these are OK. Just a pain to keep having to work on them twice. I wanted to confirm that a captured file from a channel could be replayed within the same patch without having to reprocess mid-show, but this seems fine.

I recently viewed a DVD from our local library " American Film TreasuresIV Avant Garde 1947-1986"

Lots of interesting things, and in particular "7362" by Pat O'Niell in 1967 is pretty amazing, considering it's all done on film. Some dancing included, and might possibly be NSFW. Cheers,  C.  It's on YouTube here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evdPMZWKZpU

the image/movie actor will default to scale to the stage size. You want to control this.
You can calculate the percent of stage size that it is, and then use this value to set it to its 'actual' size.
For example a 64px x 48px image is 10% width and height of a 640x480 stage, so setting it to a 10% width and height in a projector will have it render at actual size.
If you are doing alot of this I suggest creating a user actor that calculates the width and height percentage of an incoming image.

That would be very cool.

Ah brilliant - even I didn't know about the 'Registration Count Reset' @Michel is the man! (and webmaster!) 😉 Cheers Michel. 

Ahaaa!!

I see.... thanks DusX!

Just saw this article... apparently Adobe Premiere does a rather bad job of exporting H264.. who knew!

Or the good old PS3 hack...

Hello,

iam running a mac mini -> dual head -> two full hd projector in an installation - all is running automatically by switch on the housepower (mac on, izzy-file automatic start item - automatically show stage) but if i remove the preview monitor - where i see my izzy patch  - the patch will be shown allways in front of the projected image on one of the full hd projector (after automatically show stages) is there a hook which iam missing?

i`am running 10.8.5 / izzy 2.0.0b4

thanks for your help!

Thanks I'll test it as soon as I have time

Is this your product @Walter18 ?

Thanks Mark - 27 is what I have as well as v2.0.0b4. All is not only good, but great!

John

@DusX: Yes, the output is where one gets the bezier handles in the Bezier Mask.

Thanks. --8
