Epoccam Feature Requests for Kinoni?

Michel

Me like that idea. Well all above sounds very promissing.

@Armando: Sorry I missed your comment earlier. Yes, It is easy to capture accelerometer and gyroscope (device rotation) data and send using OSC messages. We will look into OSC after we have implemented Syphon support and multi-camera Syphon support.

syphon YES, dreaming of mega photo functions 100 fx filters, OSC touchVIZ dose this very neat. I know its a lot, just to inspire ….

@Kinoni
what's happening most of the times, is that although I can always see the Epoccam window (computer next to phone) in Isadora, I don't see the camera image (neither on the phone) produced by the Samsung phone on Android...
Any ideas Sami?

My 2c. 1) Video resolution. We can do 720p video or even 1080p video. What are your requirements for video resolution, it is the higher the better? HD resolution also require more wireless bandwidth to be transmitted. The more options the better. There are times in Isadora when I don't need more then 320 x 180. Other times I'll use 720x 480. . . 2) USB-support. While Apple does not officially support transferring data over USB for third-party applications we have found a way to do this. Compared to WiFi USB has lots more bandwidth, but being plugged to cable means camera is next to Mac. Yes. Plugging it may well desirable in some situations. 3) 60 frames per second capture. There are also rumors next iPhone could do 120 frames per second capture. Would it make any sense use have these high-fps videos in Isadora? Very much so, yes.

It has taken like forever but finally we have a Mac OS X beta-version with Syphon support. Sorry about slow progress. You can download the app from http://www.kinoni.com/EpocCamSyphon.zip

Any feedback is welcome. Next step for us is adding multiple cameras, that should be matter of weeks - not months.

Thank you, but I cant get it working on iPhone 4 IOS7.0.3 and OS 10.9

@feinsinn:

Ouch. What exactly is the issue? No connection? We are testing exactly the same setup OS X 10.9 and iOS 7.0.3\. In fact we are using our latest iOS app that is currently in App Store review and available later this week. But that should make no difference I guess.

I forgot to mention that app should work on OS X 10.7 Lion and later, probably not on OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.

@Kinoni

Works great for me on OS X 10.9 and iOS 7.0.3. But unfortunately if the computer is connected to the same network via cable it does not work, it has to be on WiFi.
Then downloaded the EpoCam HD version and after a few seconds (varies 10-30 seconds) the EpoCam Viewer Syphon app on the Mac stops showing the incoming video and says "searching network ...". Closing the iPhone app and reopening it gets the connection back for 10-30 seconds. This doesn't happen with the free EpoCam iPhone app.

I'm unable to get mine working on Windows since the latest update. I've been in touch with Kinoni, but haven't heard when there might be a fix. Too bad, I was planning to use it for a show next week!

Cheers,

@Kinoni I use also Epoc Cam HD. The same like Michel: "searching network ..."

Michel

@Kinoni @feinsinn

With the Epoc Cam HD update that appeard in the ios app store today the "searching network ..." problem seams to be solved.

hm, updated, but still the same "searching network..." in the EpocCam Viewer Syphon, after one minute i get a message on the side: epoc cam hd for ios7 is connected video size 1280 720, but its stays black in the viewer syphon

i'm seeing a green screen in the live capture settings window when selecting epoccam. two days ago when i first installed the drivers the epoccam worked.

i've uninstalled and reinstalled and still a green screen.

Michel

@particlep
That's true, also for me, with the drivers you can download from their website, but did you download the new app from the link he has posted here?

@Michel

i had not.

i have now. all connected up very quickly. seeing the occasional freezing of the stream, not for long and soon back to stream.

i hope the drivers can be sorted out as when i tested the epoccam through isadora's live capture settings i felt that the stream was much more robust.

Just bought it - not just because it's a cool little app but because @Kinoni is developing it and working with us. Thanks Kinoni ;)

My Facetime camera has now stopped working... directly after installing the drivers. Hmmmmm.

crystalhorizon

also my webcam stops working after the install.

I had to shut down and restart - solved it.
