Hi all!

Just to precise, Jeremy and I are working together in Sebkha-Chott, the
setup he's talking about below, is the one we use on stage with that
band.

Yes, OK, that's what we're using to write our OSC syntax.

Hmmm. There was some point not so clear for me. We finally didn't use
"nparameter" at all, so that we might write some generic bindings and
OSC-generating rules. It's not a problem to use "parameter" only?
What is the focus/advantage of using "nparameter"?

OK, I've installed on a dev machine, I'll try this very soon.

OK, this is very useful, combined with mididings, one can write very
automatic rules, that's very nice!


One question, and one kinda bug report:

- As OSC don't seem to be completely finished on LiVES, I suppose you
  (Gabriel) aren't using it to control LiVES as a VJ. IIRC, when I first
  contact you to use midi, you told me you were not using MIDI at all.
  So, my question: what kind of interface are you using to control
  LiVES?


Bug Report (speaking about Lives 1.4.5 here):

When both selecting and retriggering several clips through OSC[1], the
retriggered one is not triggered. This occurs when using
'/clip/retrigger', or with '/clip/select' + '/clip/goto', 1.
If I trigger the clip once it's been selected for a quite a time, it
works better (the retrigger action occurs something like 3 times on 4).
When all clips are retriggered, everything seems to work fine (100%).


[1] Let 0, 1 and 2 be 3 video clips.
send_osc 9999 '/clip/select' ,i 0
send_osc 9999 '/clip/select' ,i 1
send_osc 9999 '/clip/retrigger' ,i 2


See you.
