Just to add.

I feel the post is just talking about the SDK, the development tools. Not the end user, or the finished product. Just my interpretation anyway. 

Hello everyone, and Happy New 2026!
Am I right in thinking that Isadora scans for IP address on startup, and then sticks with that address? If I change WiFi to a new router, my network IP changes, but it stays the same in Isadora, causing some communication issues.
Is there currently a way to re-check IP? If not, could this be a feature request? Maybe a button in the Settings menu?

Assuming the projectors are edge-blended together and you're trying to show synched content across the whole tower, I'd suggest rendering out one movie file and using the automatic edge-blending in Isadora's Stage Setup to blend the three projectors together. Making it a single movie file ensures you'll have perfect synch across all three projectors.

I will have a tool to share shortly that parses your IZZ files and returns a report of all the filepaths found. 

It is VERY experimental but provides very useful information already. 

It is broken into three parts: 

-1 Collect data from IZZ file (find all linked files) 

-2 Make Local copies of all link files. 

-3 Update a copy of your IZZ binary with new local filepaths 

 The JSON report from step 1 is for all Scenes in your project, and includes things like read/include() calls inside any javascript you have.  

The report provides a few settings you can adjust before running step two.

    {       "source_path": "C:\\pyFile2.py",       "target_name": "pyFile2.py",       "action": "localize",       "localized_relpath": "pyFile2.py",       "occurrences": 2,       "exists": false,       "scenes_found": [         "scene1",         "scene3"       ]     }, "notes": { "summary": "Structural scene detection + Deterministic Value Header extraction (Index 0).", "action_codes": { "localize": "Standard project dependency. Should be moved/collected for portability.", "ignore": "eg: Internal Isadora/Pythoner resource. Should remain in place.", "[custom-path]": "User-defined destination path (e.g. '/data'). Localizes the file into this subfolder relative to the project root." }, "exists_codes": { "true": "Absolute path found on this system.", "false": "Absolute path NOT found on this system.", "null": "Relative path. Existence depends on project root location." } }

The above JSON outlines what is collected for each filepath. In this case, the filepath was found in two scenes, and so both are listed for reference. The filepath entry is unique so it is listed once. 

The Notes provide details on what options are available. Mostly the action_code is what you might change. This can allow you to create a custom path. Custom Paths MUST be equal or shorter than the source_path if you want to use step three.  

Part 1 and 2 will be available for testing soon. 

Part 3 is more delicate, and will need more testing before I can release anything.

I would set the 'size px' to 6, 'repetitions' to 6, and 'spacing px' to 1?

 Sure, that will work. You may want to crop/chop your video to narrow down on the region/s you want to select color from. I generally select the section of video I want to analyze, then scale it down (as low as 6px by 6px for your case) and then feed that into the Matrix Color Send actor. By scaling down you are basically averaging all the colors in a zone down to the one pixel. 
So for example, if you selected a 60 px by 120px area as the control area from your video feed, you could scale that down to 6x6 and get a fair representation of the colors on those 36 zones/blocks. Depending on your goal, you may need to experiment a bit to find the right balance of color blending vs accuracy. 

Thanks I’ll take a look.

We also had an existing feature request to this so I've now added my post here to that. 

@bonemap 

I've added this to the existing feature request for this.

@bonemap

The login to the Add-Ons Page has been fixed, so you could upload this there too if you'd like. :)

number input fields that resolve math

Added this to the corresponding, existing feature request :)

(This would save me so much time.)

@dbengali Hello! I couldn't replicate the issue with an Apple Pro Res 422 file nor a quick AVC codec saved via QuickTime Pro. I'm running on a MacBook Pro M2 / Tahoe 26.1 / Isadora 4.1.3

Hi,
I usually do the chases using a sequence of [wave generator] shifting the phase depending on the amount of fixtures in the chase. The limit-scale allows me to set the max-min intensities of the chase.

I also use a Javascript actor to automatically assign the phases: This is actually not really needed since it's generally a one time job and you can do it by hand.

I hope this was clear. Don't hesitate to ask if I was not clear enough.

Thanks, I've now logged this.

As far as I know, you'd only potentially have trouble if you intend to use the Screen Capture actor with Isadora 4 on Tahoe. We've not had any other reports of issues with Isadora 4 and Tahoe as far as I know. 

That being said, technically macOS Tahoe is not currently a supported operating system for use with Isadora 4. (This doesn't mean that Isadora won't work at all on Tahoe, it just means that we are still in the process of discovering what we need to update in order to unbreak the things that Apple broke for us in Tahoe.)

Thanks!

@dusx Ahhh refine the hours even more...Have no tested it in 24 hours myself yet, since I have to use I in a 5 hour show only. Thanks.

Hi,

Yes, those are the right modules to use. 

As identified, you will require a way to take the linear stream of numbers from the Matrix Value Receive across to the LanBox Channels inputs. To achieve that, in the Matrix Value Receive actor, I have specified a comma to separate the values (as in CSV), a script can then be prepared to return each value individually. Isadora offers a range of ways to implement scripts to parse data including with a Javascript. 

The Matrix Value Receive actor has an assignment mapping when you double click on it. It is there where you will correlate the channel input to the output stream.  

The Matrix Color Send has a video input and I have used the Get Video Size actor to return the pixel dimensions of the video stream (in my case 650 x 650 pixels). I am then using that information to determine the inputs for 'repetition' and 'spacing' of the 1 pixel rows indicating where the video is sampled for its intensity as an input 'grey', greyscale image.

I have prepared an example that resolves what you are doing with the Matrix Color Send module... here.

best wishes

Somehow?  after years of using my ipad as a secondary monitor via Yamdisplay all i get is a white screen when i send stages to my iPad. 

But if i mirror my screen it works. Any Idea?
