Record stage
-
I could use an actor to start and stop stage record.. it would help me in creating seemless loops among other things.

@[DusX](http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/profile/149/DusX)you could do that kind of thing using the **Buffer** actor... -
Yes, but I want to save the files.. I often create video comps that will only run at maybe 5fps, and I need to render them out.
Having a way to automate the start and stop of the recording could be very handy..
Even just as a way to output X number of seconds of video and then stop... great if you want to create a number of 30sec segments.
If the file name could be incremented it could be automated.. I could setup a system that outputs X number of seconds of video from each scene.
that would be fantastic. -
i'm still testing the CamTwist solution, but despite the 2 issues i described , it seems to work quite well...
it would be great to be able to start and stop live capture with an actor instead of the menu's shortcuts.@[DusX](http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/profile/149/DusX)with **movie** set to **add**, you could use media's index instead of file name...? -
still a strange behavior of the Live Capture Settings window : a simple opening can make Izzy crash...
if i let the window opened, starting/stoping with keyboard shortcuts : no crash and no "CamTwist : CamTwist (offline)" new input...on the contrary, **Capture to Disk** works correctly today, despite no significant change of mine !!:l -
Dear Spidflinch,
If you're having a crash, follow the instructions in the [bug report guidelines](http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/discussion/65/bug-reports-guidelines) so that I can investigate.Best Wishes,Mark -
Dear Mark,
as there is no file attachment link in the support form, i send you here the zipped 10 last crash reports...tell me if you need further informations. -
You could use Osculator to fire a Key Combo or an Apple Script.
This would be easy specially to automate multiple recordings. -
Dear Spidflinch,
These are really weird crashes. It's just trying to draw the buttons in the Window. I test heavily on 10.6.8, and I have never seen this. (The crash reports tell me you're using 10.6.8 too.) Do you have any funny stuff that would affect how changes the font for the buttons and other system user interface items? Or anything else strange like that?Best Wishes,Mark -
Dear Mark
to my knowledge (!), i don't have any stuff to change the system interface except Onyx, and the only parameter i sometimes change is the visibility of the hidden files (.filename) when i work on web developpement...you worry me !!i've been able to reproduce the crash without using Camtwist :- no application but Isadora- no project opened- using the Build-In iSight as input- just opening/closing the **Live Capture Settings** window, **Settings** button, and starting/stoping Live Capturei send you here the 5 last crash reports...
