I have an installation that uses bare conductive sensors that trigger videos in madmapper. everything works fine, but after a few days, madmapper freezes, and I get an error that says, "Mac has run out of space 299GB". upon restarting madmapper, the error goes away and every works again. can someone...

Hello all. I have accumulated two small boxes of international plugs for the MiniMad. Would anyone like to have them for free? Since I'm in the US, I will never use these plugs. However, I will hold on to a few just in case. On a side note, is there a place where people share things like this? thx!

I have an interactive installation that uses touch sensors to trigger videos surfaces. I've used warping points to make the surfaces into custom shapes. We moved the installation to a new location and now the surfaces don't line up properly. I tried editing the surfaces, but they snap back to their ...

Ahh ok.

Good tip. Works great!

Turning everything off, then entering "Edit Mode" is way easier and more efficient...no need to update the value. Is this the workflow you would follow given the same scenario?

Thx!

Is there an advantage to working in edit mode? I normally use update values by making my changes, right clicking the gear and selecting, "Update values". Also, is it possible to have 12 individual groups exist in 12 individual cues? so, drag group 1...into cue 1, drag group 2...into cue2, repeat pro...

Hi All, While working with cues, if I have 12 groups and I want to play them on using, "play cues in range", I need to put all 12 groups on all the rows I use. it seems that I should be able to simply drag one group to a specific cue, since that the only group I want the cue to play. things go wonky...

Hello. I have a project that contains 7 cues, but continues to skip one cue...the cue starts to play then skips to the next cue. The video surface in the cue is 50fps,15 mins long, and the codec is MPEG-4 AAC, H.264. (I had to use Quicktime to capture the video in MM in order to get the "Play next c...

Does setting the opacity to 0.1 for a group consume CPU/GPU, or do all surfaces in the group need to be set to 0.1 individually?

Ahh. Thanks for the tip! In the new version of MM, can you add a feature that uses the time of a targeted video to "play next when first movie loop finishes"? Right now move loop end gets confused when running multiple videos. it would be great if one could target a specific video to control the pla...

Hello! It's taken me two days to figure out a problem with surface opacity animations. I have surfaces in my project that I tired to start at zero opacity, then move to a new destination at 100% opacity. The surfaces were simply "popping" to the location where I wanted them to go when moved them and...

Thanks for the reply. I was already able to select banks and toggle automation with keyboard commands. The issue is that I can't figure out a way to map multiple controls to one button. In my case, I have 5 que schedulers set to automation and 5 banks with different animated visuals. Automated Cue S...

Hello I have three Banks... Bank-1 Bank-2 Bank-3 How do I tell MM to switch between them? For example, "onKeyPress-A" turn off Bank-2 and Bank-3 and make Bank-1 visible and play. "onKeyPress-B" turn off Bank-1 and Bank-3 and make Bank-2 visible and play. "onKeyPress-C" turn off Bank-1 and Bank-2 and...

Hello. Is it possible to control MiniMad using OSC? If so, in what capacity? I can't seem to find any tutorials demonstrating the process.

Thx!

ok thanks for the reply. Since I'm a newbie using shaders and madmapper, I wasn't sure how to fix the issue without nuking the whole computer. I'll keep your msg in mind if the issue occurs again.

I fixed the problem. For anyone else who has a similar issue, this is how I fix the problem. IMPORTANT***IF YOU SAVED MM FILES AFTER YOUR CRASH, MOVE THEM TO AN EXTERNAL HD OR DELETE THEM FROM YOUR COMPUTER. IF YOU HAVE MICROSOFT ONEDRIVE RUNNING AND IT'S BACKING UP YOUR FILES, PAUSE IT AND LOG OUT ...
