Isadora 2.0 - Responses and Reactions from the Community

gapworks

thanx for your information! But i think i´ll wait until we passed our premiere and the following shows :) Just in case. The show is to complex to run into a problem as Isadora runs and triggers sound, video and lights for our upcoming performances!

Using Isa 2.0 mapping unprepared (for mapping) scenery: the anticipation to get "pixel perfect" mapping had not held, using IzzyMap, even with a max out granularity number. I think it would help if instead of ability to create a uniform (constant step) mesh, one were given ability to create a non-uniform mesh: dense mesh in some hard to map regions, and sparse mesh in other lesser important regions –– even within a limited granularity.

Sorry, don't want to start a new thread, but I have asked twice to become an early adopter and I haven't received any answer, so I'm wondering if there's still too many requests and it's taking a little long or if somehow my form wasn't received. Thanks in advance.

xenia

haradan, please send the request again, i don't find any ticket related to your mail address or license, so it probably got eaten by the mailmonsters.

@eight
can you submit that as a feature request for tech review?
thanks!

FYI for all early adopters there is an important online knowledge base article about movie playback in version 2.0.
http://troikatronix.com/izzy20-playback/

Please take the time to have a look. It goes a long way to helping users understand how to optimise their playback in the new Movie Player with different clip codecs. Movies will run with either AVFoundation or Quicktime depending on the codec of the clip that you load and the whether you select use of either the 'performance' or the 'interaction' mode on the Movie Player.

thanks!

@xenia

Thought so. Re-sending right now, thanks.

Edit: I just sent it one more time, yet, every single time I had a confirmation screen and you tell me there was no ticket. Could you let me know if everything went OK? My registered name is Ignacio Carreres. Thanks in advance.

hey Izzy team,

many thanks for version 2, it is a pleasure to map directly in isadora

a favorite is the published intensity of the maps inside of the projector actor

a fragmented stage setting can be build without messing around with to many projectors

--

working with the new ffgl interface and the fx from resolute etc. is great,

specially when it is not sure if final patch shall run on osx or win

--

would it be possible to get a roadmap for the next evolution steps of isdaora ?

we know it is a critical part not to raise the expectations,

pushing the new development steps and fixing bugs

with that wide range of supported operating systems

is a hard job.

( actually i don't know any other package capable to run on low os x

but on the same time giving the great new features of recent systems in our hand)

anyway many thanks for your hard work

greetings from good old berlin

I believe Mark will publish a roadmap when the official public release of version 2.0 is out. :)

I did a installation in old movie theater that ran 10 days without any problems. Video 1280x900 projector native. Clips ProRes422 and pictures PNG with alpha. All sound frequency controlled. Moreover I used my old early 2008 MBP with 512 VRAM.

Very impressive.

I've been away from the forum for a little while, but it was great to see the new version and the mapping possibilities.

However, I think I'm being a fool here but I can't seem to bring up the izzymap window - double clicking just collapses the actor as it always has - somebody enlighten me please!

@ventmedia

I believe if you have installed the 2x prerelease that you are running the 1 series of Isadora.

This is a little confusing I admit.

To gain access to the 2.x features you must first join the early bird adopters program. Details can be found here: http://troikatronix.com/troikatronixforum/discussion/1458/isadora-2-0-availability-starting-monday/p1

ventmedia

Thanks for the reply - so to be clear - you have to purchase the upgrade before you can try these out

DusX

Yes, or you can wait until the official release (its still a beta/pre-release) when a Demo version will be made available.
