Hi,

My patch uses sound frequency bands to smoother to calculator into a Rutt Etra actor to control x-extrude, wire frame size and scale x. 

- I have blackhole 16 channel installed on a mac m3max. 

- I have a midi audio set-up on the mac for a multi-output device which is both the blackhole and mac internal speakers. 

- In live capture settings I have it set to blackhole. 

When I set up the patch it works perfectly. When I save it exti izzy and come back to it the sound frequency bands don't recognise the music playing on the computer after turning on live capture. If I set up the patch again it works. Any ideas? or is more information needed?

@woland Hello L, but having multiple graphics cards is supported on Macs right now?

@reload2024

Sounds like you're using multiple graphics cards, which isn't a supported configuration, as outlined in the system requirements for Isadora 2, Isadora 3, and Isadora 4

Maybe this will help: https://support.troikatronix.com/support/solutions/articles/13000064926-windows-laptop-configuration-of-integrated-onboard-and-dedicated-graphics-cards-for-isadora

I'm not sure if this is a resource issue or what, but I created a HAP with ShutterEncoder of an 8K video. I have the movie player set to loop.  If I am viewing the preview it looks forever. But when I "show stages" on my projectors it loops the clip two times and then freezes at the end of the clip without repeating. Happens every time.  It's a 20 second clip.  If I recall it did it when it was a regular H264 MP4 file as well.  All I can think of is maybe the file is too large for the NVS810 graphics card that the projectors are connected to, while it works on the desktop in preview mode because its using the RTX3060...  Any ideas appreciated.

I would like to take this opportunity to fully recommend Pipo Interfaces. I've been helping to test the prototypes during the Dance Hacks, and they are the most stable and practical movement sensors I have used in 15 years of plugging dancers into Isadora. 

Just to give some additional context to @dbini's comment for anyone reading this who doesn't know him:
John is a long-time Isadora power-user and *really* knows what he's talking about, so what I've quoted above should be considered *extremely* high praise.

Hello there,
I would like to share a major update for the Pipo project: the pre-order campaign has launched !
The project has come a long way.
You'll find the new showcase video, new images and more info on the campaign page: https://www.crowdsupply.com/pi... 

If you know people who might be interested, spread the word, tell them to subscribe on the page — communication will be key in gathering enough traction for this project to actually become a reality.

A big thank you for the early support I received here.
Best 

Rupert

Media Thumbnail resolution up to 640px

 This resolution is created (when you use file/Rebuild Media Thumbnails). If you are using the 'Bin Picker' control, you will see an immediate update to the thumbnails, since the default of 48px is less than the default thumbnail size of the bin picker (64px). Of course if you set the preference to 256 and the Bin Picker thumb size to 256, you have large clear images.

Did this ever get addressed? In Isadora 4 the Settings menu has an option to define Media Thumbnail resolution up to 640px, but changing this value does not have any effect on the size of the thumbnails, even after rebuilding, or restarting and importing new media.
I would love to have the option for slightly larger thumbnails for my animation patches.
