Thanks @lpipoz 🙂

Brilliant! Thanx for posting!

here is the actor

381447-detect-colour.iua

setting @25fps is fine as well.

Hello

I was burning some weird incense here… all good thanks

Thanks Mark.

It seemed to work, but the bar across the screen makes it unusable, of course. Also, I noticed other strange things, like pressing the bar to switch a scene seemed to switch the scenes in both patches. I do not have a lot of time to play with it (also that lighting guy makes it too hard to notice what exactly is happening with the projection ;-), and luckily, was able to convert everything into a single patch. --8

Yes sorry was a quick comment from me (I was actually in a meeting lol)

I meant that the stage can be anywhere.

Cool, that it worked! All the best!

@LPmode

Thanks. Worked with the command key

Good work around @fypy 🙂

@Fred.
I think in many cases, the native resolution of the projector must be considered. Like @Armando, most of the low cost beamers I work with have a VGA resolution as native (usually 1024x768 for me).
I create my media at 1024768 and then a copy at half (512) unless I am specifically working in HD.
I agree @Fred that understanding video standards is important, however; since nearly all my work in CG/digital I am exclusively working with square pixels, and VGA standards are the most practical.
Unless I am missing something fundamental?

Dear Mark,

yes, thank you for this examples. But unfortunately they didn't really spoke to me (shame on me). Perhaps it's not my way to think. And I'm scared that I'm not alone... You know, we are often thinking in a symetrical way. For example if we see "RGB to HSB", we think (and hope) that there is "HSB to RGB" ; and there is ! Can I suggest to add, in the help file of "Number to Text" actor, a short text to explain that if the user want to do the contrary, "Text to Number", he has to use a "Text Parser" with your explanation ?

No this should work.. try entering the number manually.
You can click the output (like inputs) and enter a number for the link there.
and in the control panel you can open the monitor properties (double click I think), and enter the link number there.
I have successfully had > 10 monitors running at once in 1.3.0f24 for Windows.

Dear Mark,

thanx for the tip but as i had anyway -for each of the 4 Windows of the Spliscreen- anly the quater Resolution of the full HD Projektor so it was ok with the quater input resolution for the Livecamera -which was delayed - and i have to say it worked like a charm!!!

Looking at the QC Mesh wave actor -– by the name of it one would think it may be relevant to procedurally producing a wave distortion source for the Displace actor. However, changing its input values does not produce any effect, except the amplitude: all I am seeing is a nice 3d ball.

Does anybody know how to use QC Wave Mesh? Thanks. --8

Thanks all for such a variety of great solutions. I'm using projected light through haze to create solid light structures for performance and all of these solutions will help immensely.

Thanks again, Andy 🙂

Dear Bodo,

It's stored in RAM. See this post for more information: http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/discussion/1021/livecamera-with-1.5minutes-delay-over-one-hour Best Wishes, Mark

Many thanks for the clarification, Matthew! I have it working now.

Cheers.

great. thank you!!

no I don't have that space for back projection, only got one projector for this show anyways and 4 computer screens and 1 flat TV.. some one have come up with a construction with plexi/PVC class and build new frames for all the screens, they did that on eurovison to get the screens black, if it work I let you know what kind of material it is so if someone else have the some problem there is a solution to it:)
