Does V2 and V3 of Millumin support the latest macOS 10.15, namely Catalina? 

I saw discussions regarding the Beta versions, but no announcement regarding whether it is approved and supported.

Thank you,

Auto start / play a timeline?

Hello,

I have read a few older threads about getting Millumin to autostart and that works fine for me.  I set Millumin as a start up file in my System preferences which opens Millumin at start up and auto loads my project file.  From there, I'd like to be able to autoplay a specific timeline based project.  Since Millumin always defaults to open in layer stack mode, I was wondering if there are any options to have it start in Timeline mode and autoplay.  I might be able to do this with Automator but I thought I'd check here first.

thanks,
Gene

Playing a group of columns

Hi !

Could you please tell me if there a way to play a group of columns via an interaction.
In the "Interactions learning" box, the user can choose "Launch a specific column", "Launch previous column" and "Launch next column" from the dropdown menu.
But no "Play sequence of columns" command is available. Is there some kind of workaround ? 

Thanks for your help.

When I start freezing and do other things, such as minimizing millumin or opening other software, the freeze function will be lost. I don't know what caused it, there is no law. The problem occurs in version 2 or 3, any mac version

PJ LINK DATA TRACK

Hello,
I downloaded v3.14 and tested Data Track in PJLink mode to drive the shutters of 2x PT RZ970.

It's working quite well, except : as the communication is closed after a while (isn't it?), when nothing happen in my show for a few minutes (it's a theater show, so...) some command are not working, even if they work normally when I just read the cues quickly with no break.

When I read it in its real tempo, sometimes it works sometimes not. 

For the "shutter open" command, I created an empty cue to call twice the link (one in that empty one, and then again, rewriting the command and address in the show cue), it's quite better, but not working at each time.

And for the "shutter close" command, it's not a solution obviously, because i'd need to close the shutter right after the effect... (the fade out is in the shutter mode of the beamer in that case, which is not a problem when there is no long time between the cues...)

Any solution?

As far as I know, with some softwares when you write the pjlink command to the beamer you can write a first call and right away, with a milliseconds delay the command you want...
Is Millumin doing that invisibly?  

If I don't have a solution for it to be stable, I'll have to switch to another solution to talk to my shutters, but that one would be great, because one of the easier... :)

Thoughts on new Mac Pro and Millumin?

Hi All,
Has anyone also been imagining the possibilities? Would love to see AMD create drivers for their frame locked media wall cards which would fit in the new Mac Pro finally. I also heard mention of the Black Magic cards supporting framelock, which is one of my biggest concerns right now.

The new pro res module, 24-core option, and the dual duo gpus are all so interesting.

Btw I wonder does Millumin need to be windowed on the same graphics card as the output card in a multi card system? As is with eGPUs?

The black magic cards have many sdi outputs, but are they as capable as Milllumin requires for graphics heavy timelines?

More input and output cards need to start hitting the streets obviously, but the Mac Pro looks like a great platform.

Live camera back to screen with imperceptible delay will be an interesting day if it ever comes.

Millumin with Arduino and a HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor

Hej,

I have successfully been been testing Millumin with Arduino and a potentiometer and switches for various interactive inputs, auto-coded/programmed with Millumin. I like to maintain the uploaded auto-coded/programmed settings I have now.
I now like to add a HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor, and use the returned distance value as an interactive input in Millumin.
The HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor has a transmitter and a receiver. Codes for Arduino with the a HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor can be found at: 

I like to know if I can upload the code (and the NewPing library - see further down in the tutorial) via the Arduino Desktop IDE, and then "autoprogram" the digital output, ex D3 as " IN : sensor (such as infrared sensor or potentiometer)" for Millumin to read a value from the HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor?

Thank you.

playout 2 canvases perfectly framesynced

Hey folks,
i'm currently workin on a project where i want to use Millumin to play 2 Videos exactly frame synced. 

My plan is to render a video with Alpha Channel in After Effects, into two separate files. One file for Alpha, and one for RGB. 
Then i want to playback these two file in separate canvases (each with a resolution of 3000x1200px) on a single output(3000x2400:50Hz), so i have no issues with output delays. 

I filmed the output monitor with my iPhone in Slo-Mo mode, and i can see that the canvases glitched about 1 frames away. 
Is there a Solution for this issue?


Thanks!

I'm trying to connect my iPhone camera via SDI HX Camera. Millumin recognizes the SDI but when I put it in the layer and click to play I receive this message: "To access this NDI stream, please update the receiver software to a version prepared using the NDI 4 SDK (or better). My Millumin is 3 and updated. What do I have to do?

Experience with AJA HA5-4K

Hey,

since I would like to output 4 simultaneous SDI FullHD signals from my iMac Pro I've found the AJA HA5-4K which is "little" cheaper than a FX4-SDI. Has anybody experiences with it? Is it easily possible to assign the 4 FullHD quadrants to the outputs?
And when sending a 4k or Ultra HD Signal (2160p50): is it possible to output a 1080i50 signal?

Kind regards

AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 eGPU output sync issues

So I am running a timecode window video on all my 3 outputs of the Vega 56 eGPU with 4k 60 separately on 3 monitors and they are sometimes randomly not frame accurate or synced in time. I made sure all the monitors were set correctly and they are the same line of monitors plus I have my GUI monitor out of the same eGPU. That being said is there anyway to get those outputs frame accurate and synced to play perfectly on time?

HDMI BMMR + Gopro

Hello,
I use a Blackmagic Mini Recorder to stream a camera into Millumin 3. I can see images with my IPAD, and my D810 Nikon via HDMI. The screen is black when i use a D850 Nikon or my Gopro Hero 7 Black. The bitrates are good on each camera, and i can see them all on my TV via HDMI. I test the same result on Blackmagic media express, i understand that millumin is not the source of the problem.
I have written to the blackmagic support, but we didn't find any solution about that problem, so i try with the forum, may be somebody has fixed this issue?
Thank you all!

update layer content from database

September 22, 2017, 7:35 am

Hello everyone
we are creating an application archive with a lot of movies to play, one per time, not simultaneously. (200/300 movies in total).
Our aim is to make an automation program, a script, that changes the video content in the layer automatically from a database.

1.Question regarding content change:
is there a way in Millumin2 to Load/update a file from database to a layer on the dashboard content,  automatically, with an external coding script (without drag and drop each time)?

2. Question regarding maximum loaded content range
Which is the maximum amount of movies/content size I can place in a single layer in the dashboard (where I can add single events) that can smoothly be played directly as soon as they are activated? does it depend on RAM space/size?

Thank you very much in advance for your attention
best

Mojave Bug Update? [FIXED]

Hi!

I was wondering if there was any update or advice for dealing with the Mojave stuttering bug? 

I have a few 15" MacBook Pros with the Pro Vega 20 video card that shipped with Mojave, so I'm hesitant to try and force a rollback to High Sierra. (I don't believe the Pro Vegas we're ever available during High Sierra, so they may not be recognized with the old OS)
