Video Bin and clip selection Can't Post

Hi there,

here's my situation:

I have 5 different video bins full of clips.

I use a midi controler to choose the clip i want to play in conjonction with the "get media index" actor.
The "index" output of the "get media index" actor is ID linked to a bin picker created on the control panel side (the interface), so that, when i select a clip with my controller, it is highlighted in the bin picker. Ok.

When i click on the different bin's tabs, on the control panel, is there a way to link that data to the "bin" input of the "get media index" actor, or to any other actor?

Inversely, is there a way to link a midi controller to the bin picker in order to be able to select, not the clip to be played, but rather the video bin that i want its content to be displayed in the bin picker?

In other words, i want to be able to select a particular bin with a midi controller, and with another midi controller, be able to select a clip within the bin i just selected.

Is there a way to do that in the version 1.1.7 of isadora running on a mac panther 10.3.8?

Thanks for the time taken...

Unfortunately there isn't any way to select the "bin" in the Bin Selector programmatically at this time. It's slightly problematic because seleting a different bin doesn't actually change the clip -- the clip isn't changed until you choose the bin _and_ click the clip.

But being able to control this is a good suggestion. Please submit it as a feature request at http://www.troikatronix.com/isadorabugs.html
