Send SMS to smartphones or play sounds to smartphones

I accomplished sending text messages for a piece in 2015 using a service called Twilio. You need to use the TCP/IP actors to access the API, but it wasn't too difficult to get going.

I am looking for a little similat solution, just with video, but have no idea where to start. I want to control movies independently on 25 screens. "Controlling" means in my idea to start and stop a movie as well as to jump to a specific point in the movie. A first idea was to have e.g. 25 android tablets with the fullscreen video and control them maybe via osc. But is this poosible? Which software could help realisiing his. I tried Touch OSC, butot only sends messages to this specific software, not to a videopalyer.
You brought me to the idea to work with a website that contains that movie, but also this needs to be controlled. All this has to be done in realtime.

You can control Isadora nearly completely with TouchOSC. I don't understand what you mean it sends only messages to this specific software. You can control any software that supports OSC.

Sorry, if I wrote it unclear. I want to control a video that is played on the tablet device. But control that via isadora.

I was writing a paragraph outlining a possible way of using NDI (network streaming video) to allow the setup you are after, but half way through I discovered that they haven't released support for decompression on mobile (only compressing).
So NDI is not currently an option either.
-
Perhaps VLC has a option in their mobile apps?
-
you can use MultiVid from Marco Tempest for that. http://marcotempest.com/work/m...
Even though he explains it with his software you can send OSC messages from Isadora to do the same.

Re: NDI - yeah unfortunately, but Sienna does make a web server that will relay an NDI feed as an HLS stream that a web browser, including a mobile phone, can watch.
Also, there’s the older TCPSyphon/Spout, that can be viewed by TLSyphonViewer.
But, as Michel says, MultiVid looks perfect for this.

Thanks Michael, thats really looks the right way. But there are two things I have still have to sort out. First of all I am lookinga windows solution and the second one is that I need to play differnt videofiles on each android device at the different time. I couldnt test it, but multivid looks like it can only play all files at the same time.

no MultiVid can play files individually, it depends what files you load on what tablet. Unfortunately it is only iOS, but controlling over OSC with Isadora should also work on Windows.

You could try the android mode of Processing, it sometimes works...
I tried with my phone but cannot unfortunately get incoming OSC messages, but it seems to be a bug on my side so... worth a try
-
Hi, do you know were to find the list of OSC messages wich could control the IOS app ?
Thanx !
-
mmh, it seems that he has not attached the document anymore. Below you get the patch I have made.

Thanx Michel, it' s weird i can't open the file. I've the 2.6.1 version and Isadora said that it was saved with a newer version ... is that possible ?
-
Uups sorry, yes it was saved with a newer beta version. Re-download the same file above, I have changed it.

A little late to the party, but I recently worked with John Toenjes of The Laboratory for Audience Interactive Technologies using their Mosho app to send audio, video, trigger vibrate, flash screen, etc. to audience cell phones, pretty similar to @eight 's app. They were super helpful, their documentation was straight forward, and cues were easy to tweak. While it wasn't quite as successful as I would have liked, it had more to do with not fully explaining to the audience how to interact with the app, rather than the app itself. Overall, it was a great first experiment...
