I wonder if there might be an incompatibility with the Universal Audio audio driver? This has been happening ever since I installed it for a sound card.

Could be. Have you tried removing it?

Just out of curiosity, could you download Isadora 4.1.3 and see if it launches? (Isadora 4 and Isadora 2 can be installed on the same computer without interfering with each other, and you can try launching Isadora 4 in demo mode, without a license, just to see if you have the same problem.)

Thanks @Skulpture and @Woland

After exporting several different file and codec combos, I realized that it was actually (maybe) a lag in my hdmi extender, which is old and not HDBaseT. I don't do a lot of this kind of content, so the lag was just much more evident...close ups of actors faces so the audio and video were just out of sync because of the lag.

Or at least that's my current theory. I ordered some new HDBaseT extenders and I'm hoping that will solve the problem. But I am using QT/Hap Alpha for the record.

Thanks, as always!

 Hmmm I am not so sure. HDBaseT is marketed as zero latency. Unless the hardware is faulty or there are other factors we aren't aware of. Let us know how you get on.

point by point process

 Yes, only the selected points will move, and they all move the same amount. I 'stretch' type move would be a great feature request though. I will add this. 

@skuven here is the current update - Including my new aiming system. Its really shaping up!

Hi,

On Epson projectors, you need to go into the network settings, then in the "other" section, and activate PJLink ( de-activated by default ).

The other controls are using other protocols, so will work anyway.

Best,

Mehdi

@dusx Yes! That would help me considerably if its not too much trouble for you... thanks!

And  I'll add in my set of Timecode Tools (user actors): TROIKATRONIX : ISADORA - DX – Timecode Tools

I can Syphon out of Isadora into OBS and out of OBS using the OBS Virtual Webcam. 

We're pretty consumed by preparing for the new audio-centric release that's coming down the pipeline, but I believe an updated version of a Syphon Virtual Webcam-esque application is already partially done. We just need to finish this release and then we'll see when we can get that out the door. As always, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, so if there's significant interest in us releasing an updated version, we'll take that into consideration. (I know that personally, I'd like to have it complete so I can use it for my own work.)

@dbini said:

I guess it works, but I'm not convinced its the most efficient use of resources....

I know you, so I know you know all of this, but I'll state it just for the benefit of anyone else who sees this thread:

Yes, bouncing a video signal between multiple pieces of software feels kind of janky and is definitely not ideal, but if you're just sending Syphon video streams between different applications, the overhead is next to nothing; you will not see a noticeable performance hit with any modern computer doing this. If you were doing multiple streams of NDI between different software, that'd be pretty resource-intensive. The more links in your workflow, the more potential points of failure (so fewer applications and fewer pieces of hardware is generally better whenever you can get away with it).As a general rule, every additional piece of hardware or software you add to a video chain potentially introduces delay (which is most noticeable and important for live video feeds).

@woland thanks !

is this still broken in isadora 3

As Dusx said, we're no longer actively developing Isadora 3, but this issue is fixed in Isadora 4.

@skuven I will give it a try ! Thanks 

Best,

Maxi-RiL

@jfg

thanks, that's a helpful suggestion. And yes, I'm running Blackhole so i can send it out and back using different channels.

I'm guessing restoring that function within the movie actor is not likely to happen soon. What a pity Apple messed up Quicktime.

thanks @jfg @skuven

In the NVIDIA Control Panel there's a setting for power management, which I set it to prefer maximum performance and rebooted.

 Interestingly, I took another look, and the performance management utilities on my Lenovo Legion, automatically switches this based on my mode. So 'game' mode which I use for shows sets this to maximum.

@video-architect here's a quick Izzy file with the appropriate actors. You just need to change the I.P. address of the ArtNet Send actor.

Hope this helps!

@citizenjoe nope. Playback still stops after a few hundred frames backwards..

@mmharvey

In the program you can also go to Help > Isadora Manual...

The section Actor Reference is what you're looking for

@juriaan

Thanks. Just found this topic. I assume it's all still relevant. Thanks this is just what I need as I'm setting up the exact same hardware.

@Eva

another possibility on Mac is syphon Recorder. I use it always, it is easier to configure as OBS and it works very well:
