i made good experiences with a wacom tablet, mapping the mouse area only to the control screen

it is a hardware only solution but this way you can be sure to never push your cursor in the picture and with a pen you can pick your buttons quite precisely (like the old cad stations did it, a printout of your control screen attached to the tablet…

If I am not mistaken. Capture to disk allows setting g the filename.. so if you only need 2 videos You could switch the name to be used each time. Then the option to add to the media window will update the previous with a matching name so you could have vid1 and vid2 and while playing vid1 record and/overwrite vid2... then the reverse.. As long as you do not need instantaneous switching from 1 to 2 when recording is complete.. since it takes a moment to finish the write and import process. I have a patch that I did the other day testing the capture to disk actor.. and with a quick mod it should be able to demo this. . I will get it attached here ASAP.

Thanks  for the reply.

Yes, what I was thinking is to have the computers connected, so everytime you type a new word (drawing..) into the computer that is rear projecting it triggers the other one (front), so I wouldn't lose what is being projected on the front, but simply add more text (pictures) to it?

FRParameters. I more than often prefer to have media scale to full screen- as opposed to Resolume where you have to toggle through a few scaling options. It would however be nice to have easy scaling options in Isadora, but nothing that can't be done already

I've finally finished my first project, but I can't get the stage to display on the entire screen on my second monitor! It only covers the right half of display 2, as if the whole stage is shifted to the right half. When I make the stage cover the left third, it covers a sixth of the monitor right of the center. Please help!

EDIT: nevermind! solution is here: http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/discussion/1941/isadora-showing-wrong-resolution-of-main-screen/p1

Thanks for putting it in the Knowledge base!

I hope this will save other persons some time...

@cyport

You can use the syphon recorder to capture the second stage.

I think it is way better not to have it because of the way it is in isadora the renumbering of the ports there might be a swap between osc listeners (incoming) osc

Mixing resolutions is not the end of the world. I alway pre-produce what I can because you have more control over how your content behaves, and less real-time processing.

But if you just want to "pan up" on a 1024x768, thats no problem at all. F

@Fred sweet!

thank's a lot,so  i have to save money ! ;)

Hello,

I just found an elegant way: – using the new projector, open the mapping, publish in "output", rotation, offset X and offset Y If you put – horz pos = -50 – vert pos = -50 – Rectangle 1 : Offset X = 1 – Rectangle 1 : Offset Y = 0.5 If you move the Rectangle 1 : Rotation, the image turns as usual If you move the projector Spin, the image turns on is corner And all the other possibilities. I think it's what you search. jacques

@jhoepffner I have the same thoughts about this topic

There is not shape/slice tracing currently.
You can however use the Composite mapping feature with the subtract combine mode, to create interesting border style masks.
Use a full size for the fill, then overlay a subtract layer that is smaller and you will have a video border.

Thank you for this !!

I know it's not the same but to zoom in (on mac) you can use the Mac's OS built in feature:

I can't distort the image because I have some text on it.

I'm going to try tomorrow. Thanks for the advice ;)

Ok ! I'll do it in FCPX.

Merci à tous !

Thank you Mark,
