can't fade live stream

I started using Screen Monkey last week, I have it installed on my desktop for playing and learning (no k-lite pack) and my laptop for actual presentation use, I am trying to play live streaming audio from the web, but I can't seem to fade or raise the volume for live streaming audio, I also noticed the fading slides don't always show on the layer's dashboard. Basicly trying to take the audio from one program SAM and put it into Screen Monkey and be able to fade it, when needed. I can do it on my desktop due to numbers sound output choices, but I have only two on my laptop. I can mute Sam if I broadcast locally, but can't control volume in screen monkey, I used the local audi option in Screen Monkey on my desktop and it worked, but I can't on my laptop as it comes from my laptop speakers, which I don't want.

Artnet - Multiple Servers

$

Hi,

I am trying to run a couple of Screen Monkey servers in a show, we are using both a projector and LCD screen within a play for certain elements of the set.

I have the Pro upgrade and am using Artnet to control them both. On Screen Monkey I have set the artnet with respective universe numbers (3 and 5 in these cases).

When I set a different clips live on the two servers they both switch between their respective clips at each location.

Is there a way of restricting each screen monkey instance to only respond to one universe of DMX on artnet? Or is this a bug?

I also have intermittent issues with MagicQ not being able to connect to MSEX to retrieve the thumbnails, but that is not an essential issue at the moment.

Any help is appreciated.

Playback issue for Video

Hi,

I'm new to Screen Monkey, and mainly a Mac user.

I am running Screen Monkey via a touch screen, all in one desktop. I am able to run 'images / picture' and project them fine. But when I add footage, the icon is there but there is a error with the clip 'A clip failed to initialise while trying to play. This could indicate a fault with the media or the clip type'. I have tried converting the file to various formats inc. AVI / MPEG / MP4 / WMV, I have tried different codecs on AVI (DivX & Xvid) - all have the same issue?

Is there any advice?

Thanks,

Lee

So I upgraded to Win 10 from 7 on my work machine, now powerpoint presentations load much slower, and videos don't seem to run at all, nor do they load clip images. Is there something I can do aside from running compatibility to make this run again?

K-Lite pack not installed

Hello!

Thank you for this great software!

I installed the K-Lite_Codec_Pack_1155_Full, yet still when I launch SM, it gives me a popup when I want to add a video saying that the Codec pack is not installed and if I would like to install it.

On importing a video nothing happens to trigger a playback, however, these clips playback fine accoross other media players.

Kindly advise.

Thank you.

Live monitor not displaying video clips

Hi.
I’m new to Screenmonkey, and am running version 3.7 with a high spec PC (with 16 gig of RAM) and separate HD monitor.
I love what it can do, but unfortunately I can’t get the “live monitor” to show all the selected media clips on the PC screen.
It displays JPEGs OK, but if I select a video clip (eg : .mov and .mp4) the live monitor just shows a light blue background with the cursor moving across.
I’m using screen monkey in a very simple manner with no layers, etc – just video clips allocated to the on screen tiles.
Everything else appears to work OK, and the videos play correctly on the external HD monitor so all the Codecs seem to be installed OK.

Can anyone suggest what I could try to get the live monitor to display videos correctly, please?
Thanks very much!

Countdown/Countdown Clock

I'd like to have a downstage monitor with full screen Countdown/Countdown Clock. Ideally, it would consist of templates with 10:00, 20:00, 30:00, 45:00 minutes each, etc in green, down to zero, maybe sum-up time (in yellow, or on yellow background...) 1:00, 2:00, ....5:00 min each, and the time out in red?
I've experimented with Text clip settings, which have the Countdown/Countdown Clock objects. It works fine for a simple Countdown, but I can't figure out the proper "format", and then "count".
I would appreciate detailed step by step instructions.

Output what video has started (timing)

Is there a way to send out a control indication that identifies which video started when a video starts in SM?

Wondering if there is a way to run a light show timed to each video in my deck. I would be running light show externally to SM, but it would need to know exactly when a video starts and which video it is.

I doubt there is a way to do this, but thought I would ask.

Scotland coach Strachan (Gordon Strachan) recently in an interview on Sunday talked about the Ultimate Team and the German war imminent European Cup qualifying, he said Germany 2-4 defeat to Argentina's FIFA 16 game will not give them too multi-reference value, he believes the German Ultimate Team entering the race is still very strong, but his Ultimate Team will not fear the opponent. In an interview, Strachan said: 'I'm looking forward to this FIFA 16 game, the fact is that we have to face is the World Cup, but we will not be afraid, the FIFA 16 players all know that only hard to get good results, when We control the ball, we do not have any fear, [url=http://www.fifaga.com/]cheap fifa coins[/url] when the opponent the ball when you need to be careful that we do not let them score goals. 'For the German Ultimate Team on a 2-4 loss to Argentina, Strachan said:' I think Argentina played well, it was a very good FIFA 16 game, but it will not give us the next FIFA 16 game you have any reference value, because it is a completely different FIFA 16 game, I think when they realized it was a must-win race, they will be completely different state.

Using key/RF clicker to progress through clips

$
0
0
Hi all,

I'm currently trying to set up a show file in Screen Monkey to play a series of clips in series with black colour clips in between. There will be no operator at the computer - my plan is to use an RF presentation tool or "clicker" commonly used for Powerpoint presentations to progress through the clips. I haven't got the clicker on me at the moment but I'm testing the project using the "link with spacebar" feature.

The problem I'm having is that the spacebar works the first time, but as soon as a clip becomes active, the dashboard window becomes inactive and no longer responds to keyboard input unless I click on it again with the mouse (which I will not be able to do during the show). Is there a way to configure the program so that the dashboard is always the selected window? Or alternatively is there a way to make the program respond to key input regardless of which window is highlighted?

I have tried searching through the forums for a solution prior to contacting you, by the way, but I couldn't find an answer which solved my problem. I did see an answer about "global hotkeys" but I haven't successfully been able to set this up. I have gone into Mouse and Keyboard in the settings menu and there are many commands such as "link go""go" and "play" which sound like they could be what I'm looking for but I haven't had any luck getting any of them to perform the function that the space bar does, let alone do it without the dashboard window selected.

Font Size List view

I am setting up Screen Monkey for a friend. He uses it as a music track player for live performances. ( I know SM will do a lot more but that is all that he needs.) He likes the Panel in the Main Window in "list" style. Is there any way to increase the font size for each clip's name in the list?

The development of Container House technology

$

Over time it appears that
<a href="http://www.hzxiaoya.com/">Container House</a> are being used increasingly in applications other than commercial construction. It used to be that "prefab" meant cheap, because in its original applications decades ago, probably the primary attraction of these types of buildings was that they could be put up very inexpensively.

Not surprisingly, in the decades since, architects from all over the world have been drawn to the economical aspect of prefab and also challenged by its inherent constraints. After all, if prefabricated construction is cheaper, one can certainly use one's creativity to compensate for the restrictions in materials usage and construction techniques which make on-site customization difficult or impossible.

Well, it's not really that simple, regardless of how much creativity with which one is endowed. And yet advances in materials and modern design techniques such as the use of CAD software, coupled with ever increasing awareness of the scarcity of our natural resources, and the ever-economical premise upon which construction of prefabricated buildings rests, seem to have lead to an increasing interest in prefabricated structures from architects and home buyers alike.

Recently, with the development of technology, it's a pleasure to see prefab panels that, once assembled, are as sturdy as walls constructed on-site, while produced for a much lower cost. In fact, part of the pleasure of a well-designed prefabricated building is that it is absolutely as attractive as its more expensive counterpart despite its lower cost.

Therefore, if you have a piece of land upon which you're preparing to build, there's no excuse not to take a look at your prefabricated options as they stand today. Maybe you are intent upon building the most environmentally friendly, energy efficient home that you possibly can. Maybe you're tempted by the notion of living "off the grid". In either case prefab offers options that might very well be too attractive to resist.

However, even if your building intentions are more conventional, you might find yourself swayed by the economy and often breathtaking designs to be found in prefabricated, modular construction. It's a new day, and homes built in this way are more compelling than ever.

It's clear that the popularity of
<a href="http://www.hzxiaoya.com/">Granny House</a> is on the rise. If you're planning to build a home, you owe it to yourself to look seriously at prefabricated houses, because as a building option they are more attractive, cost effective, Eco-friendly than ever.More information, please visit: http://www.hzxiaoya.com/

Life after a Link Pair

Good Evening I hope somebody can suggest a solution to my problem.
I am using Screen Monkey in our village cinema to show a local newsreel before the film.
I have a long loop of individual music tracks playing in the background, with another un-synchronised shorter loop of local events texts and pictures showing on the screen.
The problem now is that one of the local events is the village choir, so I have a video with its own audio.
I want to be able to have the video interrupt the music track loop, just for the duration of the choir video.
I can split off the choir audio to the audio layer and then use Link Pair to play the audio when the choir video starts, but at the end the video just stops. the audio will carry on to the next in the sequence but how do I restart the video loop?
I really need an auxiliary link function ie Link to pair at the start and link to next at the end.
Is this possible?
Thanks

video - windows 10

hi there!
I'm running SM on a newly installed windows 10 (x64) machine (incl. all updates) with the latest k-lite codec pack (12.1.5 full).
I just can't get SM playing video files even though they work just fine in WMP and MPS.

I'm using the preset "secondary screen fullscreen" with a screen resolution of 1440x900.

Am I missing something? I read about 64 bit codec packs but they're included in the k-lite packs, right?

by the way, this is the second computer I'm having these issues on - I set up a new one because the first one failed

Kind regards,
stefan aka John

To change your Phillips Wood Screws

[url=http://www.din571.com/]Lag Screw[/url] have to deal with all sorts of problems when they are dating the women. Anywhere from not thinking they are attractive enough (Guess what? Most women don't care as long as you brush your teeth and bathe regularly) to date attractive and high quality women. How about making enough money? Well, some women are shallow and expect the guy to spend money on them. But many other women (the high quality ones) are independent and don't really care how much money you have or make. However, there is something they expect from you! And that is the determination and drive to succeed. As a man, this is what you should be anyway because you are defining yourself as a provider and a rock of stability.

If you have no ambition, then the Double Your Dating book isn't going to help you at all. In fact, nothing will and you will get the kind of women that are attracted by guys with no ambition. The kind of women that will become resentful of you. But that is for another article of course.

To continue, Guys, we can see these girls walking by as we go through the town. And we can wonder what it would be like to have her attentively listening to you across a table at a fine restaurant. Can you imagine yourself being so confident that you can make her laugh at your jokes and teasing? Can you imagine yourself being the kind of guy that high quality woman desire so she is comfortable with showing her femininity to?

Truth be known, guys were born to attract women and vice-versa. So why are there so many hang ups? In fact, I do know that one of the biggest road block for most guys is to actually approach a very attractive women and talk to her. And possibly get her contact information to get together later on. And why is that so hard? I think most guys are afraid of rejection and "striking out" with her.

And to avoid that pain of rejection, they will go out of their way not to talk to her! And she may have noticed you and thought to herself that you are someone she would be interested in. And you just walked right by her? Imagine how she feels now!

And to make matters worst, suppose you do screw up your courage and walked up to her and talked to her. And you mess it up somehow and come across as a creepy guy. And when I say creepy guy, I mean someone who is not confident and sure of himself. Someone who a woman will run away from as fast as she can because she is turned off.

So how can you turn off an attractive women? Well, if you give her stuff like flowers and gifts. Or you compliment her too much. Or you are predictable. Or you cannot project yourself as a man. Well, that would do it.

You see, a lot of women, especially the attractive ones, are approached a lot by losers. Guys that are drunk, overly confident of themselves or have character defects that these women developed a system to screen out the losers so they won't waste their time and energy with them.

Boy, approaching, meeting and attracting women really sounds complicated now, right? Nope, not when you read and assimilate the Double Your Dating book by David DeAngelo!

He is going to help you with any problems that you have about approaching and meeting women. You will learn how to become more confident of yourself and how to make HER more confident of you! And that my friend, is how you become more attractive to the high quality women. She will fall heads over heel for you.

David DeAngelo is probably one of the best dating gurus for guys that you will find on the Internet. And once you learn and absorb his concepts, you are going to find that your social life will take a tremendous leap forward.

And there are other worries that guys have about dating women. Such as what exactly do you pay for and what exactly don't you pay for that will make or break your date.

Would you be surprised that the traditional dinner and a movie dates are not a good idea? First of all, it is boring. Second of all, paying for everything isn't always a good idea. You will find out why when you read the Double Your Dating book.

And besides, wouldn't it be nice not to spend so much money on a date so you can see another girl too? I'm not saying to be a player, but it does make a lot of sense to date more than one girl because you don't really know which girl is the best fit for you.

Personally, I think if you are more creative, not only your dates can be free, but they are more fun and adventuresome. And you will stand out in a girl's mind when she is with you!

The key here is to find a woman that you are attracted to and she is attracted to you. As David DeAngelo always says, "Attraction is not a choice for the women."

What is David talking about? Well, he says that women are biologically attracted to guys that are leaders and are confident. And there are certain behaviors that these alpha guys exhibit that you can easily pick up and use for yourself to enhance the real you.

And you will learn how to approach women the right way. You will learn how to keep her interested and attracted to you. And pretty soon, you will find that you can approach any women at any time and not be flustered or nervous.

That feeling of confidence can be valuable everywhere, not just with women you want to date. Imagine yourself being more confident at work. More confident at dealing with bullies. The possibilities of improving your life is endless when you read and absorb the message that David DeAngelo teaches in Double Your Dating book. I think you will find that this book can really change your [url=http://www.din571.com/product/Phillips-wood-screws/]Phillips Wood Screws[/url] for the better.
