Cross Fades in Isadora

AlexWilliams

Thanks Gentlemen. Working splendidly now. Much appreciated.

Hey folks,

I've just created one of these and oddly when I disable the loop on the first movie player, the audio disappears from my movie. It's still at 100 and I've initialized it at 100\. It plays fine the first time, but when I re-enter the scene, no sound...I've manually replaced the first Movie player several times, but same thing...any ideas?????

I tried your patch and I didn't have a problem with the sound, when re-entering the scene it plays like it should.

One thing about the crossfade patch you did, its not really a crossfade, first you activate the second movie at 100%, it then shows for a short time together with the first movie and then you fade out the first movie.

See the corrected patch below. I have saved it with version 1.3.0f25

Thanks Michel!

Audio still dies on me in the first movie player upon return... Thinking about trying f25 since I'm also having a weird problem with another really simple note on watcher as well. I'm 10.7.5 what are you running?

In terms of the original problem, it is also possible to put the movie player in a third scene that is always active and use the broadcast and listener actors to send the video into the scenes being jumped between. That way you could jump at any point and the video would continue playing seamlessly.

I am running 10.8.2.

There is an audio bug in 1.3.0f25 (and maybe 1.3.0f24.) I'm need to test 1.3.0f26 a bit further, but if it's urgent for you, you can get it at

Mac, Standard: http://troikatronix.com/files/isadoracore13fc26-std.dmg

Mac, USB: http://troikatronix.com/files/isadoracore13fc26-usb.dmg

Win, Standard: http://troikatronix.com/files/isadorawin-13fc26-std.exe

Win, USB: http://troikatronix.com/files/isadorawin-13fc26-usb.exe

For sure, this version solves the sound problem. But, caveat emptor: this software is not fully tested. Please use at your own risk. (Further note: the file format is the same as 1.3.0f24 and f25\. You don't have to worry about backups because of the file format.)

Best Wishes,

Hey Mark,

I want to keep f24, so re-named the directory "Isadora f24" with the intent of installing f26 into a different directory, but Windows 7 is insisting that I can't install the new one without uninstalling the old one first. Any work around that you know of?

Thanks,
Hugh

@CitizenJoe

HERE is a nice description from Mark how you can do this on windows.

Best,
Michel

Ahh, thank you Michel, I had forgotten that!

Cheers,

Hugh
