MadMapper 6 will allow loading projects including laser visuals/surfaces/outputs without a MadLaser license (not loading laser parts of the project of course, but video & DMX etc; will be loaded)

Firmata is quite simple, you can check this module: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muosra5uIAs
For arduino part (connecting motors, buttons or whatever to the arduino, it will very documented over internet)

Hi,
Sorry for this issue. I was not aware of that. We'll fix that asap and keep you posted
Kind Regards

Indeed when a laser surface covers multiple laser outputs, the preview is not correct. Best is to create a quad for each laser output, and for each quad select the correct portion in the output visual. That's the correct workflow. But anyway, we will fix the preview issue when a single laser quad co...

Are you graphics drivers up to date ? This is the most common issue on Windows. If you have an nVidia GPU, choose the "nVidia studio drivers" (more stable than the "game ready" drivers) You can also update windows. There are no known issue with MadMapper / Direct3D output, except with buggy drivers....

defaults write com.garagecube.MadMapper audioOutputMultiChannel 1 This was for very old versions of MadMapper. Since a long time MadMapper plays all audio channels by default. When you click on the info button in your movie parameters in MadMapper (the 'i' icon), it should tell you how many audio c...

The annoying thing with how it was done in MadMapper before version 6 is that if you created a project with material "MySuperLedWallAnim", you end your project, all good. You start a new project and modify this material, then some time later you reload your old project and it doesn't do the same as ...

Almost any camera compatible with your OS should work: on macOS, any camera that appears in QuickTime (compatibility with AVFoundation) + BlackMagic on Windows, any camera compatible with MediaFoundation or DirectShow (you can choose in preferences), so any camera But, for a spatial scan, the idea i...

Ok sorry I read too fast and though you had moved to MadMapper 6.0 with timeline. So

in the Cue scheduler tutorial from 2020 shows that there is From (what time) and To (what time) options but in the current MadMapper 5.68

From & To time appears when you activate "Automation"

You can do that if you know the shortcuts: in menu Output, activate "Show Info", it will show surface handles in the fullscreen output. You can know manipulate the surface from the fullscreen. Alt+Click => add a warping handle Tab / Shift+Tab: select next/previous handle Alt+Tab / Shift+Alt+Tab: sel...

It's not related to ILDA connection to the laser. The issue was that the ShowNET DAC was an old one and was missing a license, which has to be added via ShowNET Admin tool by taking contact with LaserWorld support

Hi, In MadMapper 5 the Cue Scheduler was doing scheduling & automation, and since both could be activated you could indeed program an automation in a time range specified in scheduling section. That was powerful but doing a all in one module made it complex and overkill for most cases. The new Timel...

Spout only runs locally (on same computer, since it shares a reference to a texture on the graphics card - when possible) You might look at NDI to transmit video streams from unity to multiple MadMapper running on multiple computers. There is no way to ensure perfect sync but it should almost be in ...

You want to detect if two fixtures are writing to the same DMX channels ? So this is not related to MadMapper 5.7.0 specifically right ?
There is no such option at the moment.

The issue with running two instances of MadMapper is that only one process can get the MIDI inputs, and since preferences are shared between processes, you can disable MIDI in one instance and activate it in the other. You'll have the same issue with OSC port etc. But except that that shouldn't be a...
