Hey woland, did this ever get made into an official plugin? 

No. It can't become an official TT GLSL Shader because it's not our intellectual property, but I'm polishing up an example file with this for the Add-Ons Page (among other files) at the moment.

thanks so much @mark I actually got it to work by following those steps: I right clicked on the movie player actor and selected 'show timecode'. Before I was right clicking the position output of the movie player and switching to timecode which didnt change the input position, play start, or play end.
Woo no more after effects alpha titles!!! This gives me so much control for subtitling my video opera!

Please open a ticket using the link in my signature and give us as complete a description of the problem as you can.

Best wishes,

Woland

@mark Thanks, I'll open the ticket. I never found the actor in Isadora 3. In Isadora 2 I used it normally in this computer.

Best wishes, AZ.

That's a great help, thank you!

hi, here is a useful support document from Apple about pro res codecs:

There is also this from Apple about keyframe interval:

I hope I correctly understand what you want. Here a patch Which I hope will help you:

picture-overlay.izz.zip

best, Jean-François 

@juriaan could you send an example patch ? 

( just to understand whaat you call system in "1" ( live capture? , 
2 means you are using same projectors for all scenes  in a background scene? with virtual stages? 
3 is where you put your get stage image? 
4 what is this go button? ( triggering next scene?  ) 

in master 2, does this mean you have to copy the keystock panic in each scene or you just make it in the Master backgrounded scene? 
3 very nice ! 
thanks a lot for your path sharing, it's really usefull and will make my patch safer! 

@AHNahum 
if you modify parameters that are not defaulted during your run through,
maybe you can enter scene trigger a  snaphsot recall, at the top of your patch, 

so that you are sure parameters taken during snapshot will be restored/loaded when entering a new scene, @jurian would this make sense to you?

Hi there:) Just want to say thanks 🙂
It now works perfectly fine, actually better than before.
Great!

I tend to pass the response to a JavaScript actor so I can manipulate it while plucking out the values I care about.

The first bit of business is to get the response into JSON object:

const theContents = JSON.parse(arguments[0]);

All done! Now you can use keys or iterate through arrays from the response.

let theCondition = theContents.condition.text; // assuming your sample is from the root

I do not know if there is an efficiency cost associated, but in my use-case, I need JavaScript to do some "thinking" anyway.

I hope this helps!

@woland

Yeesh... that hurts. Sorry that happened to you :(. I hadn't heard about that possibility. Thanks for mentioning it.

Hey Barney,

Just to check, have you imported all of the images from your time lapse into Isadora, or have you rendered them into a video file then imported that?

@petulia

Welcome to the Isadora community forum! Glad to have you here 🙂

Updating a old show file to a new version of the software is always something that you should take some time with. It seems that all your Movie Players were disconnected since the Movie Player outputs an Video-GPU signal and not a Video-CPU like it did in Isadora 1.x

Personally I would recommended that you change the actors to use their GPU versions, mainly because that will give a much smoother playback experience.

If you need any help with that please let us know or reach out to our friendly technical staff by submitting a ticket here

here a simple way. If you want to use the timecode you can get the actor from DusX:https://troikatronix.com/add-o...

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for posting your javascript solutions for circular motion again. I was on to these already, having retrieved a patch yesterday where I used your javascript code from a previous forum thread similar in nature to this one. It is great to get deeper insight/ learning experience from the diverse ways that solutions can be implemented. The challenge here is calculating the heading or nose of the graphic/image following the circle as a direction. And the benefit of your javascript solution is the potential to stop or pause the motion without residual angles being introduced to the orientation of the graphic - so that is a +1.

The patch attached here implements your javascript to achieve the directional angle for a image following a circular path, it also rehearses @Juriaan neat circle math:

Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

@citizenjoe Thank you! 

@anajcperfeito

Perhaps you can get more accuracy (depending on your movements) if you use the hand count output and a comparator actor set to be true with  the value one. You connect the true output of the comparator with the add input of the counter. For your movements you have to take care to go every time out of the detection zone so that the hand count go back to 0 or to play with one or two hands.
