Hi, 
In my new apartment I have an infrared heating. I assume this distorts the kinect tracking.
See this video: http://wp12472131.server-he.de...

This was while doing a test: Kinect V2 with NI-Mate 2.14. Skeleton tracking seems to work on Mac. But didn´t tested all my joints))

Thank you Mark for the link. Yes, I understand the poor performance. 

But do you have a better idea to construct the same effect with the existing plugins in v2.x?

@mwasser - thanks for the information - it looks like this might be a good option - i shall investigate your links and report back. i use SoundJack for realtime audio - its worth checking out if you want a low-latency, high quality audio stream to a specific IP.

@Maximortal

I'll run some tests in 2.5.2

The plugin I posted is the same as the official except the internal Id is set so that It can replace 2.005 without requiring repatching.

Very handy thank you!

@bonemap -- I haven't read your thread yet, but we figured out that AirServer takes possession of the screen on the computer whenever the iDevice's screen is rotated. The solve for this is to lock the screen orientation on the device.

@barneybroomer -- Setting the iPhones into Guided Access mode is essential to avoid the screen getting locked out or the app getting closed by touching the Lock or Home buttons. Guided Access also allows you to disable parts of the screen on the device which the performer might accidentally touch and cause the app to open a display you don't want to appear.

Regardless, if possible I recommend training performers on how to use AirPlay and Guided Access. In our process the performers were a quite overwhelmed by it, so that burden fell to our diligent ASM. However, if your actors comfortably understand how Guided Access and Air Play mirroring work, they can easily reestablish a lost connection.

@gavspav: Thank you man. I'll get back to you via email shortly! kindly, S

@Russell

I don't have anymore information yet. I know it is being worked on.

cool thanks for sharing 

@mc_monte you knew that?

@dbini

It worked! You were correct, it (seems) to only work from the control-menu. 

Thank you!

for sure! It's a powerful combination.

It's true that the index selector for the NDI ffgl isn't great... but you can set it up with a enterscene value toggle to get it to select correctly.

@Maximortal @DusX I did it, it works really fine. I used the pluguins that are in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Spout to NDI\FFGL folder, I located them in the ffgl folder of isadora and I put the Processing.NDI.Lib.x86.dll in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Isadora. The order of lanching the apps is crucial, thanks a lot! I will continue studying this very interesting software. 

Just did a quick test: sending OSC from Isadora to Smode. Worked very easy and quick. For me it is inspiring how to achieve similar results from the smode basic effects in Isadora only.

switching to cat6

Just to reiterate the use of cat 6 cable and to add that if your cable is running through a theatre grid or near other cables that could produce interference it is my experience that shielded cat 6 cable is a good idea. I got a local av company to make up a 40 mtr shielded cat 6 cable for this purpose. It was not cheap but I have been able to hire it back to the theatre a number of times for other shows because it reduces so many issues when using video extenders through their 'noisy' grid.

Best wishes

@LucieDance the easiest way (no code and no lib install at all) to get Kinect info on mac is to use synapse http://synapsekinect.tumblr.co...

It will pass all the coordinates through OSC. Nimate can be quite annoying to install, here it's already packed in the app.

on Mac I use AVF Batch Converter who is more modern compared to MPEG streamclip. On Windows you can use Quicktime Player 7 or make a batch with command line using ffmpeg

here are some good explanations

So people are using this facial replacement software called "Deepfake" to make pornography, and of course all I can think about is how interesting it would be to use this software for artistic purposes.

In the upcoming Isadora 3 changes have been made to allow looping playback of Hap Avi in DS mode :)

 Oh, does that include palindromic looping? @DusX I do hope so....

Hi,

I found it last night, may be some one need to test it

PowerPoint-OSC

A Powerpoint add-in for basic control of powerpoint presentations with OSC

Installation

Download and extract the add-in from here : http://benjamin.kuperberg.fr/download/powerpoint-osc.zipLaunch install.bat (You may have to run it as administrator if you get an error message)Launch PowerPoint, you should see an "OSC" Tab, where you can configure the host and port to receive and send OSC messages.

Usage

You can only control the slides when the Slideshow is active, not in the editor !

You can control slides by using :

/next Next slide/previous Previous slide/page Go to a specific slide (ex: /page 1)

Also, when the slide has changed, Powerpoint will send a /page message as well with the current slide index
