Hi,

The rotation point is inherited from the 3D model ‘origin’ point. It is therefore possible to change that in 3D modelling software and re-save the mesh with a modified rotation point. There is no option for manipulating the rotation point directly in Isadora.

The other option is to use the 3D Stage Orientation actor. It provides another layer of 3D movement, this time as a viewport/virtual camera. Therefore you can use a combination of rotation settings to create movement in different arcs.

You could use an HDMI splitter - which probably is the easiest way to do this - but looking at the specs of your laptop two of the USB-C outputs - the one on the left side and the one on the rear - are DisplayPort compliant, so you just need a USB-C to HDMI cable to attach one of them to the ATEM Mini ISO, or, indeed to more projectors for future projects.

Hi,

Keep in mind that latency in this case is "frame based". It means that if you run at 50fps, your latency in ms will be divided by 2, as each frame lasts half of the time.

Also, I can confirm that the GH5 is quite "slow". There is a latency of around 5 frames I think on the HDMI output.

hi, ok I understand better. The treadmill thing is more tricky because this means that the torso z plane won't move. But there might be another way.

One more body movement analysis thing that might help is that while a step is done there is a so called transference o weight. This means that that the center of the two hips moves on the x plane roughly above the foot that is pushing WHILE the other foot is on the air.

Other way is to se that the foot on the air is moving on the z plane in a negative value (goes closer to the camera) while the foot that pushes move in a positive value (in a direction far from the camera. In this case, in pseudo code this would mean

Check for the foot Z AND Y positions : look for the direction inversion of each foot and trigger the sound when a foot z values start to invert. 

Beware that the 30 fps of the camera will introduce a little delay between the calculation of the inversion and the sound triggering.  

I hope I am clear.

All the best

@ppp586 I'm sorry. I can't read chinese....

2: how many different NDI feeds can I run on the same network into Isadora without any trouble?

This depends on your network and the computer on which you are running Isadora. 

We don't limit how many NDI feeds you can bring into Isadora, it's just a question of at what point all that video is too much for your computer.

Hi this Mark!

+ thanks for this! PC illiterati that I am. I have only briefly looked into NUC's as potentially a 3rd smaller scale unit for specific networked functions, so I am interested to see it scales up well, I will check that spec out. Thanks. 

Also good to know re Windows. Kinda figures, but always worrying given the built in obscelescence of them all. 

Cheers

@alice

OK, please open a support ticket. We will need to take a closer look at what types of media/codecs you are using.

The Support Link is in my forum signature below.

@eva

I think you are just finding the edges of the Kinect OpenNI interface. It can be very picky about initiating. You need to activate things in the correct order. If it does crash, you will be best served to power off all parts and start them up again in sequence. I suspect that if you are careful about doing this you will find it becomes more reliable.

Isadora 3.1.1 may include some fixes that help you, but nothing I can think of that is specific to OpenNI.
You can install 3.1.1 and keep your current installed version. (yes the download link is now the latest version).
This article will help you install a second copy of Isadora (useful for testing): https://support.troikatronix.c...
NOTE: the file format will be updated for Isadora 3.1.1 so if testing a current project file PLEASE save as a new file (dialogs will warn you) so that you have a safe backup

@jivrodriguez Could you get everyone to join a Zoom call with their personal devices and then use the free version of ZoomOSC to get a copy of the zoom chat room into isadora via OSC?

@jtoenjes

You can do either.

If you only want the newer version, simply install into the same program folder (the default is great). If you want multiple versions, installed, give each its own uniquely named program folder.

Thanks @jfg, i added a control button to the trigger and a short trigger delay before the take snapshot and this works well, so long as i remember to take snapshots using the button and not the camera icon

@trevorn1

We're glad to hear that you've been enjoying using Isadora.

when I close Isadora it says I've crashed

Can you send a screenshot of the crash dialog? It's important to know whether it crashes and gives you the option to send us the crash report through Bugsplat or whether it crashes and only gives you the option to send a report to Apple.Does it crash even if you open a blank file, then quit? If not, it may be something specific to your file.Could you please add your hardware setup to your signature line? It's hard to diagnose issues when we don't know the hardware setup or the OS involved.

anyone has any pointers for installing plugins as well I'd greatly appreciate it. I got the shaders in but no luck with the Actors

When you download one of our official Isadora Actors from the TroikaTronix Add-Ons Page, the download will have a read-me file as well as a folder for Mac and a folder for Windows.

Windows Install:

Mac Install:

If you're talking about User Actors from the TroikaTronix Add-Ons page, the process is a little bit different, but I could walk you through that if that's what you meant.

@dusx thank you so much! this is very helpful.

@Ubik 

Sorry to disappoint, but we do not have seasonal sales.

Best wishes,

Ok, thank you:) Then I will look for an extra external live camera... And use my older Kinect.

@eamon

oh, and the codec should be something like AppleProRes or HAP. h264 does not work so well with speed changes.

Best Michel

Thank you both! 

@Juriaan: This worked perfectly--thank you! I can go back to clumsily dancing this little dude around. 

@bonemap: Ah! That makes a lot of sense to me now. I'll work through your example skeleton patch and keep trucking along.

@fred

Both of these issues can be corrected by setting/mutating the types as needed.

In the case of the Listener, its as simple as setting the type input to 'text'. That will allow the full ip text to pass through.

For the Global value, you need to mutate the input (as you have by connecting it to a text output) AND mutate the Get Global Values output to text in the same way.
If you connect this output to the text input of a Trigger Text actor, it will mutate to text, and you will see the full IP address.

@soniccanvas

Please read the post I made today about this.
