I think I failed to hit "post" a while back and am only now catching up 🙂
In this case, the resolution is equal to the resolution of the projectors, as I set Default Resolution to be that value (for that show it was 1024x768)
I made a plugin a while back that will jump to whatever scene matches the cue number you are getting over MSC. As long as you follow the right syntax, you can jump out of order to wherever the lighting console is going. Here's a link to the discussion, which includes the plugin if you want to try it.
I manipulate many text for show and the best way, for me, is a special Quartz Composer patch able to open and parse an XML text. With that I can have a very precise control on what Is screened. The only problem is you have to make your text in QC (size, place etc.) and send image to Isadora. It's possible to send text, but accent (like in french) are very badly interpreted between QC and Isadora.
Mark, a data array with text? 🙂
or a XML paser?
here is a sample of a QC patche, and an XML. I use it for a performance with multilingual subtitles
Hope that help

The "Deinterlace" plugin is one of Pete Warden's open source FreeFrame plugins -- not part of Isadora per se.
Those plugins are available here:

First of all, for anyone reading this who is using Mavericks -- please see [this link](http://www.enttec.com/support-center/kb/article/108-OS_X_Mavericks_(10.9)_-_IMPORTANT) -- as there seems to be a problem with the ENTTEC drivers on Mavericks.
One user reported that the only FTDI drivers that worked for him was version 2-2-18
You can get that version here:
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
You may also want to refer to their [installation guide](http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/AppNotes/AN_134_FTDI_Drivers_Installation_Guide_for_MAC_OSX.pdf)Â - especially the part that shows how to remove the old drivers. To do that, you need to do the following in the Terminal program.
cd /System/Library/Extensions
sudo rm -r FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext
cd /Library/Receipts
sudo rm -r ftdiusbserialdriver.pkg
sudo rm -r ftdiusbserialdriverinstallerPostflight.pkg
sudo rm -r ftdiusbserialdriverinstallerPreflight.pkg
Let us know if this helps.
Best Wishes,
Mark
P.S. If 2.2.18 doesn't work, try the other drivers.
Yes Yes Yes. The separate control panel for each scene is the solution. The links remain the same for scene to scene, but now I can the Bin Picker selected for that scene.
Thanks for the responses. It was 'user error' after all (isn't it always!) - I resorted to something called 'reading the manual', which turned out to be quite interesting. Â I hadn't set the Jackrouter connections properly. All working very well now.
Thanks,
Andy
y=sin(2pi X t / 23) X 180 / piÂ
the answer is in degrees and the math actor works in degrees.
yesterday i might have been having a bit of what we'll call in the uk "a bit of a blonde moment"
