auto play 2 movies	Can't Post

Hello,

I 'm certainly will be a new user of this software....

I'l looking for a way to play two different movies from a mac to two beamer. I try with the demo version to play this two movie, it look ok but :

- How can I made the movies start alone and stop alone at a specified time ?
- Is the output resolution with Isadora still the same than the original videos files ?

Thanks for yours answers i'm in a rush...

Lionel

Hello,

I'm a new user too, but I will try to answer your questions...

-You can adjust the Start and Stop points with the 'play start' and 'play lenght' settings in the movie player

-In 'Isadora/preferences' and 'tab stage' you can choose the resolution for the diffentes stages (outputs). If you set it to 'full screen', Isadora will use the native resolution of your monitor or projector and your video will be scaled (down or up) to fit the screen. If you choose 'custom' you can, for example, enter the same resolution as your movie. The output resolution of the video will than be the same as the original video file.

ok, I didn't understand your question... Maybe you should use the 'time of day' actor in the control group?

I think something like this should work
at 19.5O movie 2 starts to play
at 20.10 movie 1 starts to play

check the manual for details of the 'mode' settings of the time of day actor
