3: Done

new GL tools

The GL tools are one of my favorite patches... unfortunately my compositions using the spline patch using v0.4 look a bit bitmapped when I installed the new version- I tried re inserting the (new) spline into the compositions and re connecting but it still have a jagged feel - the width and alpha dont seam to work with the patches I've made. I've had to reinstall the original. If anyone wants to have a look I'll forward on a patch I've been having problems with.

with the new GL tools installed this patch looks the line looks quite course and loses all the subtlety of the original. it seams much "solid" for want of another word - maybe something to do with the alpha perhaps~???

can anyone help on this??

there are a few things on the new version that look like best fun - but I dont fancy having to rebuild all of my previous work to take advantage of them

thanks for any comments / help / thoughts in advance

String With URL: Refreshing

I have created a composition using the Kineme String With URL patch and I have a question about it however I couldn't find the patch on your website again even when I used the search engine on your home page :S

Anyway, I post my question here:

The QC I created is displaying the text at a certain URL using that Kineme patch, however, that text information on the specified web site changes at certain moments and I want the QC to refresh the view when it happens. I can observe that changing moment via OSC but I can't figure out a way to order a refreshment. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Audio analysis (FFT etc) of audio file

I normally use soundflower to route the audio from any audio playing app into QC and use the standard audio in to do frequency analysis and then do audio-reactive stuff in QC, but in view of the talks going on at http://kineme.net/Discussion/GeneralDiscussion/Recordrealtimeqtzmidiinpu... it would be great to have frequency analysis on a Kineme Audio File Input patch as well - so we can load an mp3 and do a bunch of audio reactive stuff on it with frequency info etc. Maybe this already is possible somehow, but I dont know...

spotlight searchable patches

it would be great if patches inside compositions were indexed, so that a spotlight search for e.g. 'trackball' or 'obj loader' would return a list of the comps where those patches are used. i feel quite confident that this would be impossible, or at least that it would have to be done on the spotlight / os level. no expectations

multiple wii inputs

i've recently started using the public beta of the wiimote patch for (another!) light tagging installation (www.hybridvisuals.nl/compound). to great success i might add (all hail the mighty kineme!). the only thing is that we've mounted the thing in an actual spraycan. this means we can't use the camera, so we're using a 2nd wiimote to get the position data.

now i've managed to get it to work, having each wiimote link up in a separate patch and sending data to the main patch using midi. but the pairing is still rather hit or miss. sometimes one throws the other out, sometimes they both pair to the same patch (giving very unexpected results, very cool if you like weird glitchy stuff).

anyway, my request is to be able to pair multiple wiimotes. perhaps by each one having its output available in a structure?

[edit]

apparently this is solved with the latest update! another episode of those 'look around before you ask' i guess... hey at least one of the feature requests is done now!
