Resolume Forum

Wasnt sure where to post this so general chat will do.
My first test of the new touch screen controller concept ive been toying with in my head.
Will go into more detail in the future if anyone is interested. Its a constant experiment for me at the moment.
Most of this gear has been setup using info from this forum so nothing new but some of you might find it interesting.

My Basic setup consists of
Laptop - MSI GE 60 w/ solid state Hard Drive
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
Resolume Arena 4.x.x
Air Display (App)
Enttec DMX Pro
D-Pro Software
Motu Micro lite Midi Interface
Denon DN-X1600 DJ Mixer (Midi Surface)
Behringer BCF2000 Midi Controller

* By full HD im talking 1080p 25fps (plus i convert ALL videos to Resolumes DXV .mov format

So far so good. ive had Air display drop out once but that was due to the router disconnecting as its upstairs. so the signal is going from the tablet upstairs and back down to the laptop. which probably would also cause a bit of a delay. Also the lag is only for the gfx to update on the tablet. its fine as a button system and way faster than leaning over and using a mouse mid show.

Also resolume will work with the whole program on the tablet however the buttons are to small to be of any use unless you run really low res.
So the only way i can get it to have the video thumbnails on the tablet only, is to kinda squish and shove resolume around a bit, and shut down some of its menus. but once this is done, and the Air display screen arrangement is set, its way easier to set up again in a venue.

Providing i dont have to program any extra lighting. i can have the system installed within half an hour no stress.

It might be interesting to know that this setup works for the Advanced Output window as well, giving you a portable touch controller for correcting your mapping up close:

Yes I looked at this as well. problems ive had now are with network dropouts. makes air display flick between second / third outputs. on the host machine. and unable to shut it down without a reboot. not ideal for live situations, so ive never used it live as yet. its quite useful for the advanced out setup. just not for running a live show as yet. still more testing.

I tried Air Display in a PC (windows 7) with 4 projectors, but it changes the mode to windows basic and resolume doesn't refresh the screen properly. I tested the last AMD driver and everything is ok in resolume if using aero theme. I tried the Air Display as an additional screen and as mirror, but getting a lot of trouble. Same thing with VLC when it changes to windows basic. I think it is related with AMD driver, any idea.

I was posting a reply to this when I realized I was writing a frickin essay that needed its own thread. So please checkout
