photo/camera wifi , how to get the stream in Isadora
-
Hi,
I just get a Panasonic Lumix DC FZ82, it has wifi connection but to get the image there s no Mac OS app, it's only an iOS app (panasonic image app),so I'm wondering if there s any way to get the live stream on Mac OS and process it in Isadora,
any hint?thanks

A lot of cameras have a "clean HDMI out" - a feature where you can run the camera's HDMI out into a capture card where Izzy would recognize it as a video in source, but I don't think the Panasonic has that feature, unless there's been an update recently...
One thing that you could try is:
- Connect your iPhone to your Mac via USB
- Open Quicktime on your Mac
- In the Quicktime menu bar, go "File -> New Movie Recording"
- Click the dropdown arrow next to the record button and select your iPhone as the source
Now your iPhone should be mirrored to a Quicktime window. You could open the Panasonic image app on your phone and then use the Screen Capture actor in Izzy to import the feed via Quicktime.
I think that should work, and it wouldn't cost you anything? There are also some wireless mirroring apps you could try - they cost a bit of $$ and introduce the possibility of dropped signal / lag but could work for you: How to Use a Mobile Phone as a Live Input for Isadora! : TroikaTronix

Thanks @will
The solution works! But the problem being the Panasonic remote app doesn’t allow a phone full screen display.. so I can cheat with the accessibility zoom in iOS, Although I ll loose quality,
i ll do some more test to see clearly the resolution it outputs... ;-)
