@woland Thank you, I though MA wasn't taking Midi show control, I'll try that way!

@kathmandale I hear what you are saying but for now the only thing that I'm trying to solve for right now is the live streaming element of the project. So if the most reliable way to sync the audio over multiple camera feeds is to run our sound through one of the those cams mic inputs... that's what I'm going to do. In reality at the venues we're going to using we probably aren't even going to need to amplify the cast in the theatre space itself.

This thread is really only about trying to that syncing problem sorted, and primarily its about getting the right hardware for the job. I'm going to do some experiments with a PCI video capture card with 4 inputs next week, which should at least remove USB bandwidth issues from the equation and I'll come back with the results of my testing so there's a resource  on the latency of various devices available for anyone who needs it.

@andrea-vassallo

I would suggest the simplest solution here is to use the Isadora Arduino Firmata actor...

Here is a step-by-step guide to set up an Arduino with the standard Firmata sketch to use with Isadora -

Standard Firmata instructions.

here is a screen grab of a patch using an gyro sensor connected to an Arduino board and the Isadora Firmata..

@antcaramelo

Hi,

I can chime in to this as I use a USB microscope with Isadora. I have had no problem with the camera being recognised by the Live Capture Settings...

@mark_m
Hi there Mark!

That is quite a big ask.. This will take a few weeks of full-time work to get at a level that is 'production' safe..

Let me look this over and see or this is something that I wish to bite into..

@kellyruokay

Here's the Izzy file. (Complete with bad joke and Red Dwarf reference).

@woland 

of course you can. if anyone finds a need for , most welcome. i will add  some sound to it and also send you. once again so much thank for your help!!!

 Well that really shouldn't cause any trouble. I will see if I can set up some type of Tcpip testing config and reproduce your issue.

@woland

Yes, we know the track listing ahead of time.

And after reading your post I had a 'doh!' moment. (Imagine me slapping my forehead!). I realise we're both overthinking this: I can simply use the Blackmagic Media Express software to capture the phone's audio and video and play that movie back in Isadora. Might re-encode it first to save on file size, though! Easy peasy! Thank you, Lucas!

@citizenjoe

Just posted the Isadora update with the BM fixes. (Isadora 3.2.4)

@jfg

Well I'm completely stumped because I don't ever really work with 3rd party AU plugins.

@mark Any ideas about this?

@dusx

The camera already has there IP Adress and I will start working on this today.

thank so much for your help.

Best hardy

This is my take on it ;)

Thanks @dusx for un-perplexing me

as soon as i connected the Envelope Generator's output to a Selector it worked fine

@garygalbraith

I imagine you could use a Value Delay Line actor as a way to ensure you can write any incoming value to a data array before passing it along to the rest of the patch.
This should allow you to determine if the issue is before or after the Value Delay Line, and if its after, you should be able to see the data saved to the txt file. If the issue is before the Value Delay Line (which I think should be directly after the receiving actor) we can look more closely at the TCP parsing side of things.

@woland & @Reinhard 

thanks for quick replies! and (duh) i had forgot the other intensity controls inside the projector once the mapping is used. 

I will experiment with incorporating the different slices in the same projector, but it gets a bit fiddly, so I had made separate mapped projectors to keep it simple. However, this is good stuff. Many thanks...

One of the attendees to my course has Windows 11, Isadora always closes at some point, for example simply when playing video. Any suggestion?

 The specs there look like a laptop. If it's a Windows laptop, they need to go do this: https://support.troikatronix.com/en/support/solutions/articles/13000064926

Perhaps it is a feature request for the Color control module to have a swatch facility for feedback. It would be awesome if it could have assignable and selectable swatches too. Or perhaps a new control panel with assignable / selectable swatches in addition to a feedback swatch associated with the existing Color control.

 That would be a great add-on Russell!

@miw

Hi there MIW!

Welcome to the Isadora community, glad to have you here.

Could you fill a new Technical Support ticket?
