Ah thanks for that - I was adding yours onto the original posters settings.

It works now I am just trying to work out the exact hold time to keep the video playing at 24fps...

Basically I have a jpeg folder with over 300 images in it - I just wanted to see what the result would look like if these images were played randomly

Maybe the screenshot above is confusing me

(Clipboard01.jpg) because obviously my latest MMV version looks slightly different

I am trying to trigger all jpg images in a jpeg folder randomly - this post is now over 8 years old - I have tried to follow the above advice but with no result - has there been any updates to MMV that might help my case?

Yes for alpha purposes here as well - here's hoping Eric is on it for the future...

Struggled to get perfect triggers - so resorted back to Playlist entries

Thanks I will try that - does it matter if mono wav files are used?

Post by SpaceTraveller » Mon Feb 12, 2024 5:11 pm Probably spent most of this afternoon looking for help on this forum and looking at the sample projects etc but I can still not find a 100% solution to my problem. I have a video file playing as my main scene and I want video files to pop up and play...

Ah, that's what I ended up doing in W10, screen-capturing and adding movie to MMV, changing background to green to use chromakeyfast to isolate text although that does slightly make the black lyric text slightly lighter (any help with that?) So with having a character limit count of just 50 on www....

Added a similar video but with a nice page-turning effect (realized with ISF) at the start of each chorus: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIZ-s-NRPdE Great work - I enjoyed that, can I ask again in regards to www.calligrapher.ai - how do you add the exported svg file to MMV?

Very good work; Thumbs up from me on YT - do these lyrics actually come from MMV - I would love some advice on how to achieve this... :) Thanks for your feedback here and on YouTube. Unfortunately MMV can't do anything like that, but https://www.calligrapher.ai/ can. Everything else is MMV with GFX...

Thanks for that Terry - I was thinking it was all about balancing fps out etc...

When I go to render and I enter 0.00.03.25 it becomes 0.00.03.24 @25fps
Can someone please explain?

Hopefully will do - thanks

Yes I noticed the copy to clipboard so I suppose that's an option

I have gone back to some past older MMV projects to work on and save under another project name. My problem is initially these older MMV projects come up with this warning: The following file(s) could not be loaded: This is not a problem - but when I save it under another name and then re-open this ...

Very interesting - thanks for posting - would be nice for the actual mmv file to dive straight in

There will almost certainly be a performance hit (reduced fps, perhaps jitter too) for any way of capturing your visuals on same rig as is generating them. You will need to capture the sound too. That said, it may be possible with some game capture setup, but that's outside my experience. I use an ...

Great info here

- exactly what I wanted to see modules react to my DAW audio.

Here's the question? - Is there a way to capture / record these MMvisuals in HD on the fly whilst they are reacting to my DAW audio? Or is it not possible?

Many thanks for any advice.

Oh I see - I miss clicking on a user to see what other posts they have posted etc - seems a shame as this interaction can help a forum become a better community in my eyes

Why can I no longer click on users?

Hello Everyone: I am in love with Magic Visuals, it is a pretty awesome software. Node based real time visual composition environment that allows advanced image processing. Since the software new, it does not have a lot of modules available for creating stunning visuals. It was good move on Magic t...

Thanks for that Eric; I look forward to trying it out further...

Yes - I never did find a suitable outcome -I was hoping this could now be done in house (just using MMV) but sadly not

Here's hoping for the future

There might be a simple answer hopefully, But with a few scenes of video all connected to the main scene - how do I prevent these videos playing until I start the music on the input sources window so they all start at the same time? All stopping when I hit stop would be great too... Any help greatly...

I've been looking at the Apple Pro Res 422 HQ render sizes etc According to my tests tonight - 1 minute of Apple Pro Res 422 HQ video equals 2.44GB Something to remember before uploading to YouTube etc... p.s don't know how much this HQ quality will be affected by YouTube when the upload is processed?

Thank you!

Using - Geometry - Starfield; what is the best way to get the stars to purely twinkle?

My stars always seem to enlarge slowly especially if the video is long...?

Any help greatly appreciated...

Ok Sadler, I will work on it - thank you for your time...

Well I am half way there: as your instructions... My shape appears centre screen pauses and then go to the left or right I want the shape to come from the left, pause in the centre and then go off right and then come from the right pause in the centre and then go off left. Any help greatly appreciat...

This might do what you want... oscillating-and-pausing-object.png This splits up the motion into three parts then cycles between them. The motion and the pause must be the same length though. This configuration will pause once for each full sweep of the screen. You'll have to add another static pos...

I've got an object going off screen from left to right and then back from right to left using:

Translate - X Globals - Tri Osc and Scale settings.

How do I make this object get to the middle of the screen stop for a few seconds then continue off the screen?

Any help greatly appreciated...

Thanks for that...looks good...

Hopefully this is not self explanatary but all my visualisations are exported with a black background.
Can I Export Visualisations with a transparent back ground?

So when I overlay it onto video footage in another video editor it does not darken the whole video scene etc?

Thanks for any help...

Thanks for posting...

It certainly would be great if you could add a static 3D model in MMV and it could be made to move in different ways in time to any beat...

Here's hoping one day....

I haven't done this exact thing myself though I have sent live video from vMix over NDI (between two machines). You'll need NDI, the NDI plugins for Magic, a virtual audio port and a player that supports NDI (e.g. VLC). These are all freely available on the web. Search this forum for the plugins. S...

I still don't have a complete work-around but if you connect video Start Time with the Playback time combined with a volume threshold on Speed as Eric suggested it gets you a little further. You have to click the Go to Start trigger to sync the video to the playhead. If you really need the stop and...

This isn't perfect but it does half the job. Screenshot 2021-03-14 163344.png Thanks for that Sadler - the video now starts when I click the wav file to play at '0' :) The problem now is if I begin to play audio anywhere else on the wav audio timeline the video clip continues to play - and only sto...

Hello I'm starting to dive into MMV; what a great piece of inspiring software. My 1st newbie question. Q1. I have added a video file of an animated model dancer - how do I get this video animation to only start and stop playing when my added wav file plays and stops? Many thanks for any advice... ;)
