Hello @jhoepffner,
it seams that your plugin is very unstable. My Isadora keeps crashing when reading files manually.I'm on OSX 10.10.5 and Izzy 2.1.Do you have any ideas?ThanksDill -
Ok, i see "readtextfromfile" isn't your actor. But are you experiencing any similar effects?
I try to do supertitles separated by text files for each sentence.It seems, that the actor crashes Isadora if the filename is changed several times.Do you experience similar problems? -
Hello, readTextFromFile is very stable for me, but you have to be very careful with the text encoding.
I use the software Smultron to change the encoding to "occidental (MacOs Roman)".When the encoding is not good, it crash… -
Unfortunately javascript doesn't accept encoding. If you use only ASCII letters, you can use only javascript and output directly the text.
But with french language, I need to use ReadtextFromFile to output the accented text -
If I want to read plain english text including right interpretation of carriage return, could I do this with javascript actor?
-
After hours and hours and a lot of given nerves including to learn and try reading files with javascript actors, I found the real problem.
The actor seems to not accepting more than exactly 63 characters for the file path!Funny enough it works for several times reading the file (I connected a puls actor to trigger the read file). But usually after 4 to 5 times latest, Izzy crashes without error. -
It can be that, personally I also try to have linux friendly path (no spaces, only ASCII letters and numbers) -
@jhoepffner Cher Jacques, je suis un ami d'Armando. Je débute dans Isadora. Est-ce que tu peux m'aider dans une technique moderne de surtitres. Il s'agit de texte à projeter en espagnol, en synchro avec du texte joué en français. Merci.

Isadora now offers a powerful Subtitle player as an Addon.
The srt-subtitle-player allows timecode to drive your srt file (subtitle file) reading.
How you display the text is up to you.
