MUTILPLE MEDIA M8 NOT DISLPAYING ON MM

Hi I have followed the instructions on the tutorial for multiple media and got going ok, now that I have tried again in a new project, MM outputs only one of the M8 layers and not the rest (2).

The media I am using have different sizes, do all of them have to be the same size/aspect ratio for it to work?

M8 is 12/3 preview and 1920 X 1440 (3 x : 640 x480)

What am I doing wrong?

Gracias,

gabbo

media can have multiple sizes, it doesn't matter.
Actually, when you press Cmd-Y in M8, it will send the *whole* output to a Syphon surface, which should appear in MadMapper.
So you can send up to 10 media from M8 to MM (whatever the medias are: images, videos, livefeed, painter module ...)

Hi thanks, I am aware of that, but I dont know why MM does not display all three media/layers I need, it only gives me one media/layer, one 640 x 480, instead of three next to each other.

Thanks,

Hi again, I think I know what was the problem. When in the preferences panel when you change the settings, for example, output size, you have to restart M8 in order for changes to take effect.

In case, any of you encounter that problem, this might be one of the reasons.

Saludos!
