Hi! , I'm afraid I can't provide any screenshots as I don't have access to the 4K projector. I tried modifying in System > Screens, but only settings for the built-in screen appeared, not those for the projector. I could select "duplicate screen" or use it as an "independent display", but in either case, the videos were not playing correctly.
Actually I want to control arduino using leap but I think my leap is unable to send signals through the Processing software.
I am using Processing 4.3 and when I download the leap libraries, few basic builtin libraries are installed with it but I am not even able to run those examples and I have no idea why because my leap motion controller works fine as I can play the widgets (downloaded from Leap motion official website) and even the gemini tracking software detects my hand.

4K (UHD) and fullHD does have the same aspect. Most 4K Projectors does scale HD to UHD and from and to any other supported signal seamlessly. Therefore no projection area is lost, nor is brightness. This is only the case if the projectors native aspect doesn't fit to the source aspect (eg. FullDH source to WUXGA Projector 16:10). But 4K (UHD) and fullHD does have the same aspect.

The specific projectors main Specs say
Resolution 4K (3840 x 2400 pixels) (Quad Pixel Drive: ON)
This is the native chip resolution (* see Pixel shift at the end of this post):
Looking at the detailed specs (page 17/25 and following) you'll find a list of all supported resolutions.
Maybe you could provide the exact issue (screen shots), which results in 'I don´t find a way to change the projector resolution.'?
*Just for the nerds: Only very few of the projectors on the market provide real native 4k Chip resolution but use pixel shifting.
Basically, the RGB pixels aren't projected on the same spot, but are shifted a little bit, in extra frames. An RGB full frame picture this way becomes three frames R +shifted G +shifted B picture, resulting in a higher virtual resolution.
@jsegal99 Hello, I use in Izzy their chinese (and very god) competitors nanlite Pavotube 30 X 4 feet long. They can be used as RGBWW as a single pixel, as 4 pixels or 8 pixels in 8 or 16 bit dmx (with Enttec DMX PRO MKII vie USB serial). And also work with Artnet send in Isadora via the fantastic Enttec ODE MKIII. Works like a charm ! Nanlite
Hey!
For IP address: In EOS go to tab 99 (Hold Tab and press 99) this will bring you to the diagnostic tab of ETC EOS. In there you will find the address that you can sent the messages to
Port: Same story! You set this in your Show settings on ETC EOS
Address: /eos/cue/2/fire
Value: None / empty
And then press transmit :)

That's awesome! Thank you so much. I will put this into action and see how it works.
Amazing!

I am in the process of logging all these requests except this one because I don't see it being possible to mix different media types in the same bin without creating chaos.
That's fair. This was really a request that came more out of conversation with colleagues than the way I typically use bins; and maybe it is enough to organize bins to group ideas (ie have a movie bin for "Loop" next to the picture bin for "Loop")... That said, perhaps in the imagining of a search function in the media bin there could be an element that would allow you to search for bin labels... or something... Most shows probably wouldn't need this, but there can be some that have a lot of media and a lot of bins it could maybe help find what you're looking for.
Thanks for the initial thoughts all! I've got EOS set up with Asteras responding and trying to trigger cues using OSC through Isadora. But I am having trouble understanding the parameters of the OSC Transmit and how to make EOS 'hear' it.
Upd address: Current IP Address?
Port: 8000
Address: ????
Inputs: 1
Value: /eos/cue/2/fire (using a trigger text actor)
Press 'transmit' and nothing happens.
Any ideas? Not sure how what to put in Address to talk to EOS. Thanks!
Thanks for your help! I tried it in Zoom and no luck, but it did work in google meets. Then I tried again in Isadora and after some settings management, it worked! I think the 4k Capture software never truly "released" the Elgato - even though I hard-quit and it didn't show in my task manager. But restarting the computer and not touching the 4k Capture app did the trick. Not sure why it doesn't work in Zoom still, but I won't question it for now.
Thanks again!

Searchable Media Bin:It would be great to be able to search for media by typing in the name or part there of. Like how the actor tool box has a search function. It would be useful when working with shows that have 100s of media files to be able to find that one I am looking for.

I'd be interested to know how slow/fast feels in a patch with hundreds of media files. Currently, there's a delay of 0.001 (originally 0.02) before it will check the next item in the list just to allow for things to operate, so theoretically it can search at a rate of 1,000 items per second. If you go inside the User Actor and want to understand how it works, there's a Comment actor by a Trigger Delay actor that explains how to slow down the process so you can see each step happen instead of it all happening in a fraction of a second.
The guts are a bit messy, but it's the best I could do without resorting to using Set/Get Global Values actors or Broadcasters (because using either of those means multiple instances of the User Actor in the same Scene would cause problems for each other unless I used Set/Get Global Values, gave the User Actor a new input for a prefix, and forced the user to give a unique identifier to each instance of the User Actor by appending the prefix to each of the global names with a Text Formatter actor).
Many thanks to @liminal_andy for the Javascript in my Text Comparator Expanded User Actor that sits at the heart of this whole operation <3
