the work around quickly at least tripples the editing time and makes it much more complex (I see, that this example is an extreme, anyway). Especialy if you have different data types (string, integer, etc.) you have to adjust all of them manualy. Let alone the naming of the in and outputs.

Unfortunately, this is kind of the only way I can think of, but you could use JSON Parser and JSON Bundler from the Add-Ons Page to make your life a bit easier (hopefully)

@dusx Great! I could remember I did this a long long time ago, but could find it anywhere anymore. :)

Thanks!

Sounds like an ambitious project!

I thought 999 was the limit, but I just checked and I was able to import over 1000 images into Isadora using the current public release:

Where did you find the 999 as a limit for media files? If you were trying with a different type of file and it stopped you from importing more than 999 into a bin, one thing to test is to fill the default bin with 999 pieces of media, create a second media bin of the same time, then right-click on the new bin and select "Import Media Into Bin.." from the menu and see if the second bin can have 999 more pieces of media imported into it. 

If there is a limit of 999 somewhere, a workaround would be to have multiple Isadora files open at the same time, each maxed out on the number of pictures and use Broadcasters and Listeners to control the secondary file + receive video from it.

OK, I wasn't sure what to call this post, but it is a bit of fun, and may be helpful.

Clean Output of the Grid layout being Shuffled.

Output with some FX's

Here is the sample file with the 2 scenes that create this output. (for Isadora 3.0.8 and newer)

@bonemap Will do. Thanks again for your insights and support!  - John

Do you mean the option Recording Stage from the Output menu? 

If yes you must change the size of your stage in the stage Setup… menu to get a 4x3 stage size.

I need just a thing, for obtain an integer to float which actor i should use??

There really is no need for this. You can simply connect an integer point output to any floating point input. I'm not sure why you would need a converter.

Best Wishes,

@dillthekraut

finally  works,  thank  u so  much !

@aidan

Glad you have worked it out. I have run into these same issues. Cubemaps can be maddening.

@jfg Yes, great! Thanks a lot for your quick response!

@dillthekraut i see what you mean, that's helped, thanks

@gapworks

A few gotchas;

If you wish to use your Console / Nomad during sending commands within Isadora you have to use so-called "Users".

ETC EOS has one primary user and a secondary user. What happens when Isadora is sending commands as a primary user it will clear your command bar.. And that is real shitty when you are working on some stuff during your show :) (In Blind mode ofc)

You should set all the OSC commands to User 2, Secondary user. That way your command bar is never cleared since that is our Primary user.

You can simply do this by adding /user/2/ to the command.

The above example will be /eos/user/2/cue/[cuenumber]/fire

@michel. Thanks Michel!  AS always - fine work.

Hi.

Just to say this patch is fantastic. Just so many options for an on the fly change.

I would have little to no knowledge of Resolve but that is very handy for stuff in general.

I tip my cap to your abilities.

Many thanks

@bonemap Many thanks, will give it a go

If using the Projector actor to layer, you will need to change the 'blend' to opaque, and ensure the top layers set to a higher layer number than your background. (or the projector actors are located below the previous projectors in the patch, since Isadora reads/renders top to bottom). You will also need to set the scale to resize the image (defaults to fit the output).

My preferred way to composite in this manner is to use the 'Matte' actors, they allow you to drop an image on another rather easily, and by changing the scale setting, you can have your slide dropped on at 100% size which avoids any resizing blur.

There was a Quartz Keystroke emulator, but it has obviously been deprecated.

I use JSON often to combine links into groups ad pass them around that way.
See this article: https://support.troikatronix.c...
The methods allows user actors to have a single input instead of many links, which can make complex patches much easier to work on.

@thatmattrogers

Nice work. 

I appreciate that you are wrapping it into a user actor. That's always the best approach in my mind, and makes it so much easier to use again in the future.

you can also look at https://ossia.io.
