Yeah, well, it made me nuts too because I could never find the solution. (Again, it happened only to a few users.) I suppose it has to do with a missing font, but try as we might, we could not sort out the problem. I'll take another look at this.

Best,

Hi Jake, I experienced that today. I corrected the default output resolution, closed the IzzyMap window, double-clicked the Projector again and it was there.

Oh! Thanks to all of you!

I will try all of your methods, and of course I will create feature request, as [mark](http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/profile/2/mark) suggest. Very thanks!

Update:

Worked great.  I needed to make sure that only the lights were the image for the chase as I originally tried to include them as part of the background image.  When I did that, the whole image appeared to flicker, but when I had the lights on top of the background, it looked wonderful.

ok. i found the problem. when projected, the circle mask wasn't really circular, but looked circular from where i was sat (underneath the projector) so i dropped a grid image in and mapped it so that the grid was square. it will be much easier when i've cut the floor to a perfect circle.ef5085-marjo05w.jpg

I suggest not using either of these contains ers for h264. If on Mac stick with apple formats. If on PC the wmv format supports h264 and ensures the best directshow playback.

that helps. thank you!! solved..

@Woland

that is strange, probably you have to login to your router to see the settings, depending on the mode sometimes not all LAN connections are free to use.

You can always buy an old midi drum brain, this will simplify things a bit. You can use home made piezos on long cables to go into the brain (some have calibration), it will then give you midi notes out with the "volume" encoded as note velocity, super easy, convenient and no heavy coding or other software. As the piezos eventually die, I would send them with a bunch of spares pre-made so they are easy to swap out if the stop working (we were using them as cheap drum triggers, after a lot of hitting they would become less sensitive. You would probably have to design some kind of calibration routine in Isadora to get the setup correct for the show, but this is also pretty easy.

I used Alesis trigger IO (very old, but they worked fine) and you can still buy them- like this bargain http://www.ebay.com/itm/Alesis-Trigger-IO-Digital-Recording-USB-Midi-Interface/182158567941 Fred

Well that was a simple fix.Thanks.

Hello all,   I have used my ENTTEC before for DMX control, but not for MIDI. (I ran a few shows using a Presonus instead of my ENTTEC). I currently have the MIDI In of the ENTTEC plugged into to MIDI Out on the back of an ETC Ion. The Ion is configured to send MSC data, and I've verified that my Mac Pro can use and recognize the ENTTEC by hooking it up to an LED lighting instrument and controlling it. I have found the ENTTEC via the Serial communications, should it be appearing in the MIDI communications? What am I missing?  Does Isadora support MIDI for the Enttec Pro Mk2?  Thanks in advance,   Woland

Do you have set to stop if dropped frames?

@fredix Also make sure the screen scaling is set to 100%.

@Mark,

Thank you for this clear example. I copied first a patch from Skulpture's youtube tuto and the behavior was different. I worked on z translation on 3d line's actor than on this 3d renderer and I've been able to recreate his example but not with the same setup...  For "missing actors" it's my fault : I took time to see all families of filter and they are all present. My mistake is because I didn't select the "toolbox filter" and I was set on "all video" which hide other actors like calculators, generators... All the best.

@fredix

Are you on Mac or PC?

Best Michel

@videovoce

Well the difference is that if placed in the top most library its available for all user that have a login on your computer, the sub library not. And Isadora points by default to the top most library.

I agree with Fred, the best way for me to obtain good files is through Compressor (or FCPX using Compressor presets), using streamlined presets for each particular use.

Capture is one thing, editing another one and playing also, each one with a particular codec…

Hi @Mark 2.) stages are lined up correctly 1.) resolutions - Stage 1: 1080i . Stage 2: 1280/720 feeding an extron vsc 700 scan Converter . Stage 3: 1280/720 3.) graphics card: AMD Fire Pro D300 2Gb supports up to 6 outputs (thunderbolt/ mini displayport) Regards

[Edit] I was looking at @fifou 's User Actors first, I see @mark 's already have the Pass Value and Float to Integer actors added on the last "Remaining Frames" Calculator actor. 

Attached is the edited version of @fifou 's TimeCode Trigger 1.0 User Actor. Best, Woland
