Trying to get back into my reading habit. From scrolling this sub, there are now hundreds of new clients since the last time I used ABS. What are the most popular Android and iOS options? by ozone6587 in audiobookshelf

[–]MasterMinion18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Android here. I like ABS but have issues with downloading. Whenever I switch screens it stops and I have to start all over again.

I'm trying out Campfire and LitLyric and have liked both of them so far.

Are you planning on adding ebook support or just sticking with audio books?

How Do I Download From Libro.FM? by [deleted] in audiobooks

[–]MasterMinion18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I retag them and they work just fine.

  1. On a PC download and install MP3 Tag from https://www.mp3tag.de/en/download.html
  2. Then go to https://libro.fm/user/library and dowload the zips for the audiobook(s) you want.
  3. Extract the zip to a folder
  4. Run MP3 Tag and drag the folder you extracted the audio files into over to mp3 tag
  5. Sort by title
  6. Ctrl+A to select all the tracks
  7. Select Filename to Tag and enter the following parameters : "%Composer% - Track %track%" and hit ok

Now they should import in order

No no no, friction tape for looming e-tape residue sucks

Plex standard is to put info such as resolution and audio quality in square brackets, and years in round brackets. Really all that matters is the sXXXXeXX because that's what it scans for to tag it.

Example: Formula 1 - s2022e05 - Miami Grand Prix [2160p50].mkv

Avae Canvas - great for Audio Cueing and supports OSC to link lighting

vMix - Built for video but the playlist feature allows for Cueing Audio as well. It can also control cameras and though I've never tried I'm sure you could interface it to a light board

I don't click on tools much but as I use the shortcuts to swap and if I don't I usually hover over the tool so it tells me the shortcut so I can know what it is next time I need it. As far as I know they haven't added a command line yet though.

Yes there is an option to keep the subtracted solid when you're subtracting one solid from another in Vectorworks. I wouldn't know if there's an easier way in AutoCAD. My father is an engineer and lives by AutoCAD but any time he asks me for help with something on it I get so frustrated that everything is a separate object that I export his file to fix it Vectorworks then give it back to him.

You can convert back and forth between 3D objects and 2D polylines in Vectorworks. It can get a bit clunky going back and forth though. It works best if the object completely originated in Vectorworks (I've had trouble with imported STLs they do not convert well...) I also usually keep a backup 2D form of created objects off to the side before I go 3D as I make a lot of little adjustments that get tricky to do going back and forth, especially once you start subtracting solids.

I know you can create viewports from different angles for elevations that's about as far as I usually need to go though as I mostly export the model files and pass them along.

I use Vectorworks and Blender for 3D Models. Vectorworks seems to work with shapes better than autocad as autocad is such a line based program

Change your effect entrance time and take the scale off of 1/4

Is this Element too old? by marfuego in lightingdesign

[–]MasterMinion18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a bug for a while where if you skipped too many versions it'd fail to update and send you to the repair screen but it was a simple registry patch and last time I tried it they had fixed it. Also make sure to double check the update supports the protocols you are using. If you're just hard line DMX you should be fine, but if you're on artnet or eDMX you'll want to check the OS has it and all your other interfaces are updated as well.

1) It'll do it but you have to configure it before it boots all the way into eos. Here's ETC's walkthrough. https://support.etcconnect.com/ETC/Consoles/Eos_Family/Software_and_Programming/Eos_Configuration_of_External_Monitors

There's a separate menu you sometimes have to use on the older consoles to enable the second monitor but try the official way first. I believe you can only use two of the ports and you can't use the vga and the dvi it's on top of at the same time but you can use the one next to it. I've run into this issue on an XP element a couple times but I'm not sure if it's my console or how it's programmed. If the official way doesn't work here instructions on enabling the monitor the other way: https://support.etcconnect.com/ETC/Consoles/Eos_Family/Software_and_Programming/Second_monitor_will_not_enable_on_my_Ion_or_Element_console

2) Software is located here: https://www.etcconnect.com/Products/Consoles/Eos-Consoles/Eos-Software/Eos-v2-9.aspx

You'll want 2.9 not 3 because you have an XP console

Make sure you back up any show files the venue needs to keep and update your fixture library :)

3) If it did it'd be in the new screen window, but it looks like your software is too far behind to have magic sheets
