@gavspav maybe go with an izzi map grid layer and send it to a virtual stage?

For future readers: 

Been a problem of mine recently, thank you for this thread tho..

Hi there!

I can also verify that AirServer works like a breeze. If you need any help feel free to reach out / post the question on the forum.

@mark,

just great, isadora can do anything!

thx.

r.h.

Dear All,

A user on Facebook was asking about old, 32 bit FreeFrame plugins that we no longer support. One of them he mentioned was the Solarize effect. I quickly found some GLSL Shader code on the net for that one, so here it is inside the attached patch. Just add your own movie to the patch to try it out.

Best Wishes,
Mark

looking forward to doing this exclusively in Izzy

 Soon/ish I expect 😉

@bonemap

Thanks for sharing this patch, this was very interesting to see. And such a nice patch. Also of course, the calculated mouse direction is a really cool feature!

As I was already patching further, I continued with the rectangles hit test as in my first post, which, as you mentioned is basically the same approach.

I made one User Actor for a shapeable button with text:

And another one where you can place your own images as Normal, MouseOver, and MouseDown states:

Both of them are not solid yet. I planned to publish them as User Actors, but they still will need some optimization. The shapeable one has a problem when the stage was not set to "Match Output", and you are use another display aspect ratio then in the original patch.

The second one, using pictures as assets does currently only work with pictures larger in width than in height.

At the same time the patch is still a bit chaotic and not well documented.  

But as I do not find time to develop further on this at the moment, I wanted to share the current state by now. It includes the current state as User Actors as well as an IZZ file with three scenes (Button shapeable, Button with images, Hit Test).

Hit_Test_Buttons_007.zip

Thoughts, feedback and further development upon welcome.

ok… thank you for this informations !!!

I will take in consideration 

Thank’s 

Bye

I will put in a feature request.

 Please do. I will add to the existing request to give it more weight.

@juriaan many thanks. All sorted

how

 This is actually a bit of a difficult project since the Movie Player doesn't yet have the new multi-channel features the Sound Player has in Isadora 3.0.8

The best way to keep 4 videos in sync is actually to make them into 1 video (eg: 4 hd videso tiled, makes a standard 4k video) and then Chop it into its separate 4 video streams inside Isadora using the Chopper actor. The movie player can play multi-channel audio, and should support 8 channels if they are setup in the standard way for 7.1 audio.

This help article should help you create a test video file with 7.1 audio https://support.troikatronix.c...
If you can get a test file working, then I would suggest putting all 4 videos and the audio into 1 file. This will keep all media streams in sync.

Dear All,

Here's a newly minted solution article about the LOAD indicator, in case you'd like some details on that value is calculated.

Best Wishes,
Mark

Directly out of Izzi? How?

 Here I am sending MIDI notes to the Helm synth (works with most any standalone synth or DAW). Helm then sends the sound to the sound device ( I am using Voice Meeter Banana because it allows me to mix multiple channels into the final output)
I am routing the MIDI through my Roland Rubix soundcard, but I could also do this using loopMIDI(virtual midi cables)... on Mac you can use Isadora's built in virtual midi cables.
PS: this patch is noisy fun 🙂

@dusx

Looks interesting! will try it out soon. Thanks for sharing!

If it's helpful, I'm attaching the patch here. Dance Draw.

@mark any thoughts on the new resizable BAR technologies that have just become available on most GPUs? Would this have an impact on Isadora's capabilities?

About my Computer

 Is this a laptop?

@juriaan If you can get to it and it's not too much trouble -- I'd love to see the way you constructed the patch. If not, no problem! Thanks! 

@ozfetis

I think you could use Processing to interface the api and render the map, and then send it to Isadora via Spout/syphon.
This library looks like it would do the job: http://unfoldingmaps.org (processing 2 only it seems)
