Reinstalled the last version 3: The same.
Installed demo of version 4: the same....

Not that I know off are there any windows features enabled....

It looks like your 'capture mode' input needs to be set to 'color'.

from the help file:

General: Depth Video is Sent when Capture Mode is 'Color'

If you set the 'capture mode' to color and also enable 'body tracking' or 'skeleton tracking', then the depth map will be sent to the output. To perform body or skeleton tracking, OpenNI Tracker must enable the depth sensor on your camera. In this case, it is sent to the depth video output even though the 'capture mode' says 'color'.

I am reading that Isadora 4.0.9 doesn't work with a Rokoko SmartSuit Pro without gloves- is there a 4.0.x version of Izzy that works for a suit without gloves? Can I download older versions of Isadora if that is the case?

This might help if your using the stage method.

@jfg

Yes that I am thinking too..

@dusx

I have so much to do until the end of the month that I can't try. I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you so much for your fantastic work

Best regards,

Updating the info... I'm now testing the M4 MacBook Pro, and it behaves exactly the same. The DP doesn't display any images, and the SE has a glitch. And you can't change the Hz on either.

Thanks !

If you use tungsten pars with a red green and blue filter in front even at low intensity it will emit a lot of IR light. This shouldn't Change, but you can change all the other lights IF you filter them out of your IR camera.

@dusx Thanks! Gave it a try at 6 / 8 / and 11 — still crashing the movie players around 15 minutes into the cycle. I truly don't understand what changed. 

@reload2024 8K is going to be expensive, the controllers dont seem to have drifted down to the cheap gear yet.

Maybe 2x 4K to 1 to 4 video wall controllers will do: https://www.aliexpress.com/ite...

These are so cheap you can buy spares - there sure wont be a warranty service.

The good news is that you can now get a good video card - the NVS 810 does have a lot of outputs but only 4gb memory and it is very old tech.

The little scene name buttons at the bottom of the page are all grey, and turn blue when active, pale blue when active in the background and red when using blind mode. But would it be useful to be able to change the default state colour independently? kind of like the new coloured actor titles, you could create groups of scenes just by changing the button colour. I guess the palette might need to be restricted so it doesn't interfere with the functional colour changes, but a right click - simple palette selector (a bit like the slots in Ableton) might be useful. Even a choice of 4 different greys would be nice. What do you think? 

 I'll add this to the existing feature request.

@citizenjoe

numbers 2 and 4 seem to be contradictory.

Although these have a test pattern generator, I would make some complex test pattterns for them to line things up accurately, One (annoying to make) would be an imager at the native resoltuion of the projector with alternating lines of R, G and B pixels, you can cut the image into 8 sections and alternate vertical stripes and horizontal. This will make it easy to see if the pixels are spot on as the colours will change if they are not.

 Especially Panasonic projectors (they where my main job machines), have an internal grid pattern which can be set to one of the rgb colors. If you set one projector to a specific color (eg. red) and a second to another (e.g. green), they mix to a third color (e.g. yellow) if they perfectly match. This makes it very easy to identify miss matches and even the direction to shift/warp.

Some projectors offer the option to set the whole system to one of the RGB basic streams. This way every every test pattern becomes monochromatic.

I didn't need to try after a nice restart. Everything's working.

 Nice, happy to hear everythings working :)

project with 3 projectors in a 3x1 layout.

 Are you using projection blending?
As @Woland mentioned, we will need to look at your full configuration to fully understand what is happening.

@dusx No, but I will do that, thank you.

Performing a little bit of thread necromancy since I ran across this and wanted anyone who ran across it in the future to know that, as of Isadora 4, the Button Control has Control Properties for the color of the button in its on and off states:

The method of using a picture is still totally viable, and can be nicer if you want to include a fancier-looking button designed in Photoshop. Also, it's worth noting that you can use images that have alpha and the alpha will be transparent on the button in the Control Panel and you can make some pretty neat buttons that way.

UPDATE: I tested the system yesterday with the organisers of the conference. This time I had 2 external monitors (one to pin the zoom participant, one as a projector for my studio) and it didn't work. : (
Screen Capture was constantly getting confused about which screen to capture. Even when running in a background scene, sending video over a Broadcaster, when I changed the Listener scenes, the output from the Screen Capture would change to a different screen.
So now I am running Zoom on 2 machines. One has a HDMI output to a capture device on the other one. I pin the Zoom participant to the capture device and then the video shows up as a Video In source in Isadora. I then use Syphon Virtual Webcam to get the output from Isadora into Zoom.
It seems to work OK now I'm not using Screen Capture. Time for more remote testing.

EXTRA UPDATE: as long as the host doesn't Spotlight anyone, then the pinned video feed works fine!

What specific RTSP feed do you want to capture?

 motion jpeg and h264 with the possibility to switch the sound on/off

It would be great if you could made an actor. I am too bad with python to write it myself. I will try but my success chances are very low.

thanks
