MadMapper 5.1 Beta introducing MadProjectorControl
Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2022 5:21 pm
Dear mappers,
You can now download and try MadMapper 5.1 Beta which introduces a new extension: MadProjectorControl!
The extension (which will be a paid feature once officially released) allows you to control your video-projectors remotely through the network using the PJLink protocol (https://pjlink.jbmia.or.jp/english)
With the help of MadMapper’s Calendar Scheduler & Cue Scheduler, you can also fully automate your installation, removing the need for a dedicated operator!
Check out the Laser news as well in the release note below,
The Beta is already available in the Downloads section of your user account -> https://madmapper.com/myaccount/downloads
And of course please report any bug you encounter or any feedback you'd like to share
5.1 Beta Release Note
ADDITIONS
+ Added a new extension MadProjectorControl to remotely control video-projectors
+ Added PJLink protocol support (PJLink module included in the MadProjectorControl extension)
+ Added Laser Visualisation support for Capture, Depence2 & WYSIWYG
+ MadLaser: support Moncha DAC support (https://www.showtacle.com/moncha-go-2/)
+ MadLaser: support AVB / Dante to drive lasers (for Laser Animation projectors)
+ MadLaser: Added Soft-Edge support on Laser Quad (don't expect it to work in any situation or with any content, but it's working in some interesting situations)
+ MadLaser: Added option on ILDA file to use source ILDA points or re-rasterize geometry using MadLaser algorithms
+ New builtin Laser Materials & Laser Lines FX
+ Video & Laser Lines surfaces: added an option to merge two paths (now you have split & merge)
+ Command-line-interface authorisation
IMPROVEMENTS
* Materials can use last frame data for more complex creations
* Optimisation: don't render Video Loopback projector if not used by any visible surface
* Global BPM with Audio beat detection now supports specifying BPM range
* Video & Laser Lines surfaces: when adding a handle in creation mode, it can directly be adjusted with arrow keys
* Increased MiniMad Light mini-jack audio level to 0dB
FIXES
- Fixed Video Output Internal Loopback when using FX that require MipMapping (ie Gaussian Blur)
- When disabling/re-enabling Laser Output connected to Pangolin Beyond, stream was off until you start some content within Pangolin
- Fixed cueing Materials / Laser Materials ISF event inputs
- Fixed Cmd-Ctrl+click to reset value on range widgets & right click for controls menu
- Fixed possible issue reconnecting ArtNet/sACN to the right network adapter on Windows after reboot (identify network adapter using its name)
Enjoy!
