Fading folder contents / multiple playback windows

I like the image folder node but I wish it faded. Having support for both images and videos would also be nice. While I can create a slideshow by using the playlist and crossfading options, automatic, randomizing, etc., I can only do that once within a show. The single most useful feature for me wou...

option to crossfade tabs / open playback list in Preview

Hi, Between the tabs and the playback list it can be difficult to find the tab in a list when it's a long list. I wish there were an option to enable fading tabs. A further setting allowing for each individual tab to be customized would be nice too. Also, a right click on the playback list to open t...

Re: Was there a video export feature that cost extra?

Thanks. Why is there such variation in the file size output? Each scene outputs a different file size for the same settings. Having left the default quality setting of "7" for a seven minute 1280 by 720 resolution video, the first scene file size was around than 491 MB and the second scene...

Re: AMD graphics card screen hiccups when duplicating scenes

Right click on scene tab, "duplicate scene". Although right click, "copy" or "paste" had caused the same sort of hiccup on the current release.

Re: AMD graphics card screen hiccups when duplicating scenes

Thanks,

I just tried that tonight and now the background video and shaders appear to be retained. Unfortunately, the images still hiccup.

As shown in this video:

Re: Was there a video export feature that cost extra?

Thank you. What is the difference between the two codecs? I generated a 7 minute 1280 by 720 video at 30 frames per second with the top x264 codec in the drop down menu. The file size went down by about 1/3, from 1.4 GB to 491 MB. The other x264 codec had a slightly larger file size at 640 MB. I don...

Re: No reaction ,from the square, to music

Or just plug in a 1/8' mini stero cable from the PC output to the microphone input unless you have the combo connections found on smart phones. Virtual Audio Cable software is great though if you're willing to install another application. It's a virtual audio device driver, sort of like the virtual ...

Was there a video export feature that cost extra?

I don't remember if it was for this product but was there a video export feature which cost extra? I remember reading about there being an MP4 codec which cost extra. Not sure if it was on this forum.

I prefer this one although I haven't made any comparisons lately. https://www.tobias-erichsen.de/software/loopmidi.html There is also a software application I use which was developed out of the lighting industry which is for managing multiple MIDI connections and protocols.

Re: AMD graphics card screen hiccups when duplicating scenes

With the NVIDIA 1030 I have at home that is, perhaps, correct. But with the AMD graphics card at the club it does in fact affect the "full screen output". Perhaps we're having different experiences because we're using different graphics cards. ??? In my experience it goes momentarily blank...

AMD graphics card screen hiccups when duplicating scenes

Hey,

I'm using an AMD graphics card, RX560. I've noticed for over a year that the output hiccups when duplicating scenes, copy and paste, etc. It's not the video. It is hiccuping, blanking out for a moment before resuming.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks,
Truth

Numbers for InputSelector nodes or more numerical nodes

Hi, Using the InputSelector node I find myself counting down the strings to try to figure out which node is which number. I wish there was a selection node which showed the selected node name. I also wish it was easier to correlate the nodes of the InputSelector with the numbers in the counter of th...

Re: disappearing scenes from the tabs / anyone else?

Perhaps you are unintentionally clicking on a tab's "x" button when selecting it, which will hide that tab.. From the User's Guide: "... All "x" buttons can be hidden by choosing the Hide Close Buttons option. This saves a bit of space, and prevents tabs from accidentally b...

Re: Video playback controls (transport controls) ... positi

I was mistaken. I'm new and thought the HH:MM:SS had to be converted to seconds instead of minutes.seconds, so I messed up the video end time because I was setting it up during the show due to circumstances. Oddly, using 2.12, the over 1 hour video looped after about 15 minutes but I haven't been ab...

Video playback controls (transport controls) ... position

Hey, I wish the video playback start and end time creation was easier to deal with. :) :roll: Neither can I advance or find my video positions without guessing. What is the mathematical formula for calculating the conversion in order to enter the minutes and seconds? I thought I had it correct for t...

disappearing scenes from the tabs / anyone else?

Hey,

I've been experiencing disappearing scenes from the tabs during shows. Has that happened to anyone else?

Windows 8.1, 64 bit
Latest version of the software installed. Disappearing tabs on 2.12 and now 2.13

Thanks,
