      Hello!

      I want to create a looping "slideshow" pulling files from a folder that changes through the show.
      The intention is for pictures to be taken during the show, which will get dumped in a folder that's looping through.
      Is there a way to "reload" or reassign the media in the bins automatically? Or, if a file gets replaced while a project is playing, will it just play the new file automatically if named the same?

        are you on Mac? there's a script that will do what you need. @Primaldivine has made a tutorial here: http://www.jamiegriffiths.com/apple-script-into-isadora/  - i'm sure she won't mind me sharing it.

          I think, if the names are the same, you can swap them. (best if the resolution matches probably as well)

          You will want to be sure to never swap the one that is loading currently.
