Co-operation between ONYX-VJ and DMXControl
Hello,
I’m member of the DMXControl freeware project (www.dmxcontrol.de) and responsible for external contacts. The reason for my mail is to check possibilities for co-operation with your ONYX-VJ project.(I’m impressed by your excellent features!)
DMXControl deals with light and show control based on PC and the DMX protocol. Because it’s a trend to combine light and video we have already implemented a plugin that controls a media server for doing simple things such as load/play/stop/show/hide an picture, video or audio track. And this is controled via DMX as common show control technology. Now, we would like to support more multi media with VJ.
As you certainly know, Arkaos has implemented an DMX-input interface for DMX triggering. From our point of view this is not the right way: We propose the combination of a dedicated tool handling all the stuff with DMX and Artnet (e.g. implementing the DMX interfaces of diverse vendors and handling the cue lists) and another tool handling the VJ stuff (ONYX-VJ). The interaction should be handled with some kind of IP based communication, e.g. by sending commands from DMXControl to ONYX that are triggered from the DMX world (hardware pults or software solutions). As result we could synchronize a
light show with real-time video effects. Sounds great from my point of view.
Whats your opinion? Would you be interested in a common activity for that feature? Do you provide an interface in ONYX-VJ capable for an external (remote) triggering?
Thanks and best regards
Frank

Hey guys…
I really like the DMXControl - ONYX interface idea. Be good if the ONYX interface could work with other applications too :)
cheers Jason

Hi Guys
We are a software house developing an on-line application for recording video. We are looking for highly experienced Flex consultants to help with this. What you have done with Onyx is right in the space we need. Could you contact me directly to discuss this opportunity.

hi daniel,
onyx runs pretty well under the adobe AIR (alpha) enviroment under ubuntu linux. only problem i have is getting the output window to the second screen (or projector)…primary display is set to 1440×900 (laptop), secondary output to 800×600…..
how is it done ? have a gig on sunday and wanna use onyx for the first time.
here`s my xorg.conf (if this helps)
# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings
# nvidia-settings: version 1.0 (buildd@vernadsky) Tue Mar 4 20:24:34 UTC 2008
# xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by failsafeDexconf, using
# values from the debconf database and some overrides to use vesa mode.
#
# You should use dexconf or another such tool for creating a “real” xorg.conf
# For example:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Hey guys,
This is a great project! I absolutely love the fact Air application can do this.
Anyways, I just launched Onyx on my Mac (10.5.4, MacBook, Spaces enabled, etc) and the entire window is placed far up on the screen that I can’t use it properly. See the screenshot below:

Let me know if you need more info. Thanks.

Go into your settings.xml, and change:
<window name=”LAYERS” x=”0″ y=”0″ enabled=”true”/>
to:
<window name=”LAYERS” x=”0″ y=”20″ enabled=”true”/>
see if that helps.
Comment by Daniel Hai — July 12, 2008 @ 3:31 pm
How do you change the ourput resolution? currently its set to 320 X 240. Anyway to beef it up a little?
Comment by Nick — August 30, 2008 @ 8:27 pm
In settings/settings.xml, change core/bitmapData/width and height upwards. I wouldn’t suggest anything above 480×360 though …..

Hey guys:
I’d like to feature your software on a television show I’m working on. Please contact me at your earliest convenience so that we can discuss.
Best,

Aloha,
great looking app. Been in computers since punchcards and appreciate a good interface. Can you import or open avi files yet? Can you import earlier version of swf files than 9? I’ve been looking for a cross-fading function since I used to do dual projector slide shows with a pot-slide dissolve.

Awesome Program!!! Thankyou!!! I just can’t seem to get video to a second monitor in Windows XP. Thankyou for any help.
Comment by Rick — January 27, 2009 @ 12:21 am
Would it be possible to fix the window issue on MACs? Out of the box the window appears behind the toolbar.
I applied the fix from comment #6, and while that pushes the x5 video widgets window down by 20 pixels, the rest of the widgets don’t move down so there’s an overlap.
Comment by Tronster — January 31, 2009 @ 10:51 am
So is anyone actually developing this in the community? My biggest challenge right now is getting access to the Adobe tools necessary to work on the code. There’s a lot of things I’d like to fix (clip previews anyone?) and add (additional codecs, either via live transcoding or something else).
Comment by Froggy — December 6, 2009 @ 1:55 pm
my fla files play thru but dont loop, the swf file loop but stay a 1 frame so theres no clip control.how do i get frame control and automatic looping?
Comment by nick — February 23, 2010 @ 5:27 pm
is it possible to get some samples of this working uploaded to http://cyberbrothers.tv of working in Onyx VJ - its would be really cool to share this with that community and get word out about this in that network… maybe some tutorial videos ???

Hello,
How do I get the output to a second screen on a MAC?

Comment by mariano — August 2, 2010 @ 3:28 pm
any word on how to use the new midi module with korg nano series midi controllers? Would really like to get this software up and running with them so I can use them in my web show.
Thanks, keep up the awsome work.
Jei.
