I will look for your support ticket.

In the meantime, On the Windows side, you need to get windows stable. Don't worry about Isadora. First get Windows capable of restarting with all attached displays connected as expected. This may take some detaching/reconnecting and rebooting. Once stable you can move to Isadora.

I would say that its possible that the Isadora Preferences should be reset (menu option in Isadora for this).

And I would also, clear your stage settings and re-create the stages. Just incase that was messed up due to the power outage. Having these stable in Windows first is key.

I would also suggest going the GLSL Shader route. LLMs can do pretty well if you feed them the contents of Tutorial 3 here and the guts of one of the existing TT GLSL shaders as an example, so that they can understand the formatting requirements.

You could send a stream out of After Effects and into Isadora using NDI…

Hi Charlotte

Without knowing anything about After Effects, would a GLSL shader be a possible path for you?

Does anyone know if there is a "shatter" effect equivalent (like shatter in after effects). I know there is explode, but I'm looking for a more glass shatter effects rather than a bunch of squares.

Started a new support ticket as you suggested.

I'm using win 11 with an Nvidia 4090 and Asus Z790 board. My Studio set up has 3 monitors, a TCL tv and 2 Acer monitors.The projectors are 6 Surewheel sw-10 and 2 Optoma  (don't know the model number, they're on the ceiling). Have connected the projectors with 2 J5Create usb-C to 4 HDMI adapters. Everything was running smoothly with the first 3 Surewheels. I could turn Izzy on and off and the stages only went to the beamers not the monitors and tv, very stable.  Then I accidentally cut the power (!!!!). After that the stages began to go to the tv and monitors, mainly to the tv but sometimes to the monitors also. Izzy starts without any projectors and also with the first 3 Surewheels but the stages are mixed up and I have to manually correct them. Mega hassle! Haven't installed any new programs. 

Thanks for all your help, I'm not very adept at the technical side of things...

Does Isadora open normally if you detach all externals from your system so you have the bare minimum connected?

Have you installed other software recently? In the past Nahamic Audio drivers caused an issue much like this (this was fixed in version 2). But other software could be causing a conflict.

I regularly use Isadora for movie screenings in a tiny pop-up cinema in a shed. There's only room for 4 or 5 viewers, so I can chat to them beforehand and find out whether they want subtitles, and which language would work best for them.

Isadora is perfect for having more control over the subtitles placement. Separate screen is no problem. Last year I staged a performance where the soundtrack was an hour-long 4-track audio file. I used Isadora to display a translation of the spoken text and tweaked it to show the subtitles in different ways throughout the performance.
