New Motherboard Didn't Deactive | Set Tomorrow

Hello,

Swapped my hardware. Didn't do the deactivate thing again. However magic still seems to be working fine on my new setup. Should I worry about being deactivated mid set or am I good?

Virtual Audio Sources Just Gone?

Any ideas?

Est Video Output Latency?

Hello, I notice when broadcasting, my visuals are the smallest bit out of sync locally, pre-broadcast on OBS. I assume becuase the Magic software is outputting after processing the audio signal, and OBS gets the audio feed directly. OBS has a feature to delay Audio by a certain amount of ms. Is ther...

Re: Video Input Performance

Trialed adobe media encoder and installed hap codec and yes I about doubled FPS! Thank you thank you.

Turns a 50mb mp4 into a 2gb hap. I wonder if .MOV is the happy middleground. Ill do some testing later!

Bottom Horizontal Scroll Bar

Another small thing that would be helpful for when chains get spread out or auto organized. Holding left or right key is way too slow. When I'm performing live in VR it would be nice to see a bottom scroll bar to appear that I can drag real quick!

Confirm Deleting a Scene

Not sure if I missed this, but I've accidently deleted scenes with small titles too many times. Figured it's worth mentioning. Or at very least being able to ctrl + z that action. LUnless there is a dialogue option somewhere I can click.

I'm not sure is it limitation of this software or what. With a pretty elaborate scene, not locked to a frame rate, throttling at 0 or 1ms, my scene drops to 30fps. 5950x & 6800xt. CPU is only ~40% load, Gpu 80%. When I power off half the scene, i go back up to 60-70. Any suggests or do i just ha...

I don't care to lock the assets. The issue is I don't know how they INPUT the assets, unless I unlock the project for them to manually load the files in.

Re: Exporting Lock Projects with Sources?

Would that be a feature request then? Because I don't see how I could potentially export 'Locked' projects for people if they can' timport the assets into the project, unless I give them the password, which defeats the purpose.

Unless there is a solution I'm missing?

This works, kind of. But does not achieve the result of just having a foreground over a background. Maybe it's the limitation of the City Lights shader?

Re: City Lights & Other Shaders Hiding Background

If I'm not confused. I created a 'mask' layer. I put the source video on top of the 'background' effects at the end of the node chain. This causes the 'source video' to be affected by the background coloring and effects, and all the alpha around the input source remains black. For example: https://i...
