I tend to pass the response to a JavaScript actor so I can manipulate it while plucking out the values I care about.

The first bit of business is to get the response into JSON object:

const theContents = JSON.parse(arguments[0]);

All done! Now you can use keys or iterate through arrays from the response.

let theCondition = theContents.condition.text; // assuming your sample is from the root

I do not know if there is an efficiency cost associated, but in my use-case, I need JavaScript to do some "thinking" anyway.

I hope this helps!

Hi there:) Just want to say thanks :)
It now works perfectly fine, actually better than before.
Great!

@juriaan could you send an example patch ? 

( just to understand whaat you call system in "1" ( live capture? , 
2 means you are using same projectors for all scenes  in a background scene? with virtual stages? 
3 is where you put your get stage image? 
4 what is this go button? ( triggering next scene?  ) 

in master 2, does this mean you have to copy the keystock panic in each scene or you just make it in the Master backgrounded scene? 
3 very nice ! 
thanks a lot for your path sharing, it's really usefull and will make my patch safer! 

@AHNahum 
if you modify parameters that are not defaulted during your run through,
maybe you can enter scene trigger a  snaphsot recall, at the top of your patch, 

so that you are sure parameters taken during snapshot will be restored/loaded when entering a new scene, @jurian would this make sense to you?

@emcee65

I hope I correctly understand what you want. Here a patch Which I hope will help you:

hi, here is a useful support document from Apple about pro res codecs:

There is also this from Apple about keyframe interval:

@dusx

That's a great help, thank you!

@mark Thanks, I'll open the ticket. I never found the actor in Isadora 3. In Isadora 2 I used it normally in this computer.

Best wishes, AZ.

Please open a ticket using the link in my signature and give us as complete a description of the problem as you can.

thanks so much @mark I actually got it to work by following those steps: I right clicked on the movie player actor and selected 'show timecode'. Before I was right clicking the position output of the movie player and switching to timecode which didnt change the input position, play start, or play end.
Woo no more after effects alpha titles!!! This gives me so much control for subtitling my video opera!

Hey woland, did this ever get made into an official plugin? 

No. It can't become an official TT GLSL Shader because it's not our intellectual property, but I'm polishing up an example file with this for the Add-Ons Page (among other files) at the moment.

@Woland where can I find a Python example on how to "load" files to the media bin?

I cannot point you to an example unfortunately, I was just saying that it is possible to write external code that clicks on things, simulates key-presses, etc, to import your media for you at set intervals or something similar.

@christopheve

This may not suite your needs, but I know that Canon has a c++ sdk, and there is an addon for openframeworks which I have used before to take photos which I then passed to Isadroa via Spout.

https://github.com/elliotwoods...

In my case, I created a small Openframeworks project that I controlled from Isadora by OSC, and received images via Spout.

The upside was I had access to the camera flash as well as the exposure etc..

@Dako-Ark 

The issue is the addresses you used are special in Isadora and do not need to be set up in the Stream Setup. 

You only need to enter '4' in the OSC listener to receive from /isadora/4

But, as @Skulpture mentioned, switching to 'izzy' or another path name will allow you to set these up in Stream setup in the standard way.

thanks so much! very helpful!

do you advise me to transform the videos into mp4 or can I leave them in wmv?

 Leave them as-is unless you have any problems.

@tincho-genosha Are on Windows or Apple? I might have some tips for you!

@juriaan

Thank you very much. Comments are really helpful. Very kind of you to take time for this.

Limit scale value to gates and value change actor after triggers were the things i missed when trying to do it.

Damn. It's so simple when you see it. I should not have dropped school that soon :)

Best !

Dear Isadora Community

I have a question regarding websockets. For a show next year the audience will get Augmented reality glasses that are connected to a pocket computer. 

The glasses were successfully used in previous shows but where controlled with a Panthea web server, via so-called "websockets". So the glasses are all synchronized in near real time. With the Panthea tool you normally drive subtitles. They have then added to the subtitles corresponding technique commands for the glasses. These were things like:

1. which piece
2. which object or effect should be seen
3. special commands for the objects, for example 3-D coordinates in space or speed of movement in space.

Would this also be possible with Isadora? Se pictures below for a few example commands.

Here's what I made: https://troikatronix.com/add-ons/auto-launch-isadora-and-enable-serial-ports-workflow-for-macos/

There's a read-me file that should walk you through everything.
