Thanks Kris.

This is good to hear.

You are welcome. :)

I had the mask in both scenes but still did not work because they were blending with the video footage even though  I had set the blend mode correctly.

But I figured it out! I was using a png file with transparency and that was not working. t Iried with the Alpha Mask instead and it seems to be working now. Thanks! R

DusX, thank you so much. that is exactly what I was looking for.

All explained here.... :)

@mark, this just posted by Adobe. Don't know if it's useful to you, but thought I'd share... http://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/apple-quicktime-on-windows-update/

Yes installed this and still no joy with QCtracer. I have replaced it with another QC functional actor that has solved that problem.

Meanwhile the same project is experiencing all sorts of crashes when run on 10.11.5 having been throughly stable on 10.9.5\. I have started a support ticket and Monte in Canada is looking at it.

Hi ,

I am looking for a possibility to get one more ticket for the Isadora Werksatt. If anybody has a ticket to spare please contact me.  best, christoph

not sure where to post this, but I thought I would share my first Isadora show.. this was a clip my wife got from one of our days at our VBS.

I used Adobe CC to create all the content and animate the character in Adobe Character Animator.. then ran everything back in a video bin... pretty much only had a night to do everything, we were way behind this year.. anyway, I hope in the near future we are going to reshow the entire play and I'll try to get it filmed, it's about 30 mins total..

all the video, music, and audio fx were triggered in Isadora.. the lights were on a separate computer for now.. until I get that connected to Isadora..

@rodgy_fr See attached example and in this case hit timer run! And indeed it is a great tool:)

One topic that always comes back to me while creating Isadora patches is how to deal with Randomness. Different methods produce different results. Using Wave Generator or Pulse Generator + Random. Trying broader or smaller number intervals. Converting a result to float before or after remapping its range. Etc. I would love to have conversations with people that are also interested on methods of generating random numbers, and how factors that would not seem to mind sometimes completely changes a patch ;)

https://vimeo.com/173850453 On a more operational level, wondering if there is a better method to create "split screen" sequences the the one I adopted on this patch (ref. print screen below). I am passing all the Video Inputs through a User Actor that Mixes pairs of related content / uses the Zoomer actor to change its size and properly positions then.  PS. on those TO DO LISTS that we maybe never really DO, but I found this [very nice PDF](http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-450-principles-of-digital-communications-i-fall-2006/lecture-notes/book_7.pdf) further discussing random processes, as part of Lizhong Zheng and Robert Gallager's MIT's Open Courseware on Principles of Digital Communication.

Just arrived at Berlin, cant wait to meet you all))

is it only me or have all links and images started loading inside the boundaries of the discussion forum?

feature? bug?  attached are some examples in chrome I only see a small corner (due to loading inside the forum frame), and in safari it does not load at all fubbi

Let me know when you source them.  :^)

Agree with Graham, would also love to see more behind the scenes stuff

Yes I tried the midi monitor in Isadora, it's super handy-MIDI Monitor is just a double check thing ))

I also would like to express my sorrow at this turn of events. I know all to well the ramifications of these unfortunate events. I suspect the last license I purchased for a client may have fallen into that pit and feel extra bad.

I support Skulpture's suggestion of the donation button or some mechanism at any rate and love the idea of being able to tag it to features - great incentive.  Thanks as ever for your tireless work and the generosity and support you bring with it. Let us offer a little back in return.

@joeartist

Its important that you setup the serial ports properly, the baud rate has to be set the same on projector and Isadora. You can try the patch @m_theater posted about 2 years ago, the Eiki seems to have the same commands: http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/discussion/comment/8993/#Comment_8993 Best Michel

@mark

Can you give any insight why pasting a 'Stage Background' actor from an old patch would behave differently?

@bentway23

Please enter a bug report (see my signature) and one of use will go thru this with you. Taking a look at your Isadora file will likely be our starting point.
