Q's 1 -12 each have 6 Movie Players in, each going to a separate Projector, each going to a separate Stage. Each Stage is a separate pyhsical monitor. </p><p>All Q's identical in layout but each is looking at a different Media Bin and shuffling content from that bin. </p><p>From Q 13 -a pyshical trigger is pressed which selects a Q1-12 at random and each of the players then select content from the bins they are looking at. Once all content has played through Izzy jumps back to Q13 waiting for another trigger press.<br /></p><p>At the moment shuffle actors for the Movie Players in each scene look between a range of numbers relating to the content in that bin </p><p>eg. Bin 7 has videos 15-18 in it, so Player 1 in Q2 looks &amp; selects between that range via a shuffle actor when scene is activated.<br /></p><p>All works fine but if I want to add more video files to a specific bin then all the numbers above that get out of sync with players. </p><p>Is there an actor/workaround so that the specific bin is looked at regardless of number range that I've completely overlooked or maybe a way to automatically update the shuffle actors min and max as content is added or indeed removed!</p><p>Many thanks,</p><p>Si</p>]]></description><link>https://community.troikatronix.com/topic/9021/media-bin-shuffling</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 07:44:57 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://community.troikatronix.com/topic/9021.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><pubDate>Wed, 16 Oct 2024 12:42:32 GMT</pubDate><ttl>60</ttl><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Media Bin Shuffling on Wed, 16 Oct 2024 13:39:12 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="https://community.troikatronix.com/uid/205">@bonemap</a> thats great thanks Russell, will do that.

<p>You will be able to program some logic using the Get Media Count and Get Media Index actors described on page 362 of the Isadora 3 manual.</p>
<p>For example specify the media index of the first asset in each bin then add the media count for that bin and you will have the range of index numbers for each bin. The range would then update whenever a media asset was added to any bin.</p>
<p>Best wishes</p>
