Getting Started - How do I use Effects with Motion Capture?

dduke

Fred, it's working now and very well. Thanks a lot to share your application. I'll let you know if I use it. I'm working on a performance with a dancer, using a kinnect.

Thanks @Fred for everything, we would like very much to use it now but I' unable to make it function on a 10.6.8
I'm personaly not familiar with Openframeworks altough I'm using some patches...
I'll see with some programmers friends if they can make it work

Fred

What machine do you have? Does your video card support FBO s? Run the console before you start the app and let me know what it says.

bruper

@Fred, sorry I didn't answered until now but we where rushing against time for the past few days... My machine is a MBP mid 2009, 2.93GHZ Core2Duo OSX10.6.8 8GB. I tried to understand what is FBO but couldn't find if the graphic card has it or not (NVIDIA GeForce 9400M and NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT).
I tried to run the console which was constantly giving me google updates messages and I got rid of it, meantime there are plenty of messages which, apparently for me, are not related to OFW or the Water patch, what should I exactly look for on the Console?
I got some friends to look on to it but they are not familiar with the Mac environment and also could not get it to work...
thanks
best regards

I'm missing 2 actors: the "Syphon Stage Output" and the "Syphon to Image" where could I find it, are they part of f24 or later?

Michel

It's part of f27.

@bruper the 2 actors are syphon server and syphon client for Izzy. Have a look at Matthew Harber's page and syphon v002 page.

Michel

@dduke

thats true for syphon server and syphon client, but not for bruper's question about "syphon stage output" and "syphon to image".

@Michel & @dduke thanks, Michel is right however, not the same thing, but where can I find f27?

Michel

unfortunately you can't download it yet, Fred accidentally used them in his patch he posted here, so it turns up in the patch but is not working if you don't have f27. So please be patient until it will be released to all. But you can do all with the syphon server and syphon client from the v002 page.
