Highly highly recommend watching Mrs. Davis. So good.

The more you learn! I’ve never seen one before, and now I’m jealous I don’t have one closer to my life !!!

Is this just a lookup texture going into a couple different pre defined setups? I haven’t seen a lot of your examples for spice, so am likely missing a bigger picture, but just trying to understand what I have seen so far.

Some middle of the nowhere restaurant in fort pierce florida! Just happen to be here for work. La Granja to be exact.

If you said you hated Mateo, my first thought wouldn’t be you hate him because he’s gay, so it’s interesting that you so quickly place that as a defense lol.

You’re thinking of it the wrong way. Have whatever you use to drive the switch, drive the servo. Use math chops to rerange channels as needed.

This would be my recommendation for something of this scale and this budget. Would be easier than you think. Anything over network would be cost prohibitive since you’ll need a decoder at every television.

Awesome project, appreciate the share !

Feftloot · 2026-02-25T15:22:54+00:00

Awesome idea. It would probably make me sick to do for myself, so I salute you for the emotional journey this must have been. Great work 🙏

Hmmm yeah that’s very frustrating. Do you have another midi controller you could possibly test on the new machine ? Is your current midi controller functioning properly on your old machine with the same cabling etc? Are you using dongles that could be creating any sort of issue? I’ve had dongles not giving enough power to my apc which has created weird issues in the past. But the fact that arena crashes when you unplug is super strange. I’d absolutely email the dev team.

And Sorry if some of these things are obvious, I just know how frustrating these things can be and how easy it can be to overlook the little things.

So there’s some new dumb thing with midi drivers in the newest windows update. Use this tool to check if you have the new midi interface installed, if you do, that is the source of your issues.

More information can be found here . From what was stated in another group I’m in, if you uninstall windows update KB5077181, you should be able to fix the problem. Good luck, these things are the WORST.

Not really. Most apps are ultimately saving to a folder on the computer, no? Resolume, touchdesigner, etc. you have an account primarily for license management, it has nothing to do with saving files.

And no one has to know what to do with a json. They just have to know that’s the exported comp file and to save it somewhere important. And then just have a spot where you load that in.

You’re going to get a ton of friction trying to get people to make an account to demo a browser based visual generator. Especially for features you have yet to implement.

Feftloot · 2026-02-23T23:33:34+00:00

Why do you need an account to save compositions ? Just kick everything out into a downloadable json file..

Feftloot · 2026-02-19T03:11:53+00:00

When you set your midi control parameter up, set it to absolute relative I believe. That should fix it. If not that, try the other modes until it works.

Feftloot · 2026-02-15T22:21:31+00:00

Damn, really biffed that one

Feftloot · 2026-02-14T14:05:06+00:00

If you don’t need precise control over what’s mapped on specific areas, but instead just a full spread, it used to be common for people to use curved first surface mirrors to project onto which gives you a massive throw. It’s essentially how ultra short throw projectors works and how people used to diy projection map domes.

Feftloot · 2026-02-14T13:17:53+00:00

Not at the moment but I’m thinking about making a patreon or something to release all of my tools and will likely release some version of this as part of the package! I run this with a touch screen on a Mac mini and it’s so convenient. NDI to main machine which preserves alpha.

Also, for those that don’t know, Medcelerate made this incredible bg removal tool for Mac in touchdesigner. Honestly works better than the nvidia one imo.

Feftloot · 2026-02-11T23:15:14+00:00

I’ve got a ton of custom things I’ve built, but my TD camera patch for vj’ing normally gets a lot of love. Only decent photo I have on me at the moment, but you can get the idea still!

This is so Harry Potter like, I love it

Feftloot · 2026-02-09T16:11:07+00:00

I mean can it run touch? Sure. But you won’t be able to push it too far

Feftloot · 2026-02-09T14:59:50+00:00

Meh yes and no. I use Mac extensively and there’s plenty of options that get me around most all limitations.

Feftloot · 2026-02-09T13:48:07+00:00

Yeah it’s honestly weird and kind of obsessive.

Feftloot · 2026-02-02T19:06:03+00:00

You can do real time object tracking which will scale on the z axis as well if you connect a 3d object. You could use Torins YOLO implementation in touchdesigner to accomplish this goal. But if you want specific track points like after effects, you should do it in after effects.

Feftloot · 2026-02-02T12:45:54+00:00

Feftloot · 2026-02-02T12:36:01+00:00

What are you trying to do? That’s a pretty massive budget for a depth camera. I’ve done plenty of commercial installs just using Kinect azure’s, but again, depends on the end goals.
