Hi!

That worked graet till the point where i have to delete the kext cache, where the terminal tould me “rmdir: illegal option — R
usage: rmdir [-p] directory …”

 

I tryed different options but without sucessI think i´m close! Sorry for my ignorance in programming terms!

Thanks a lot!

Hi Andrea!

Happy new Year!!

Since now the SVS is working perfectly! The only thing i´ve noticed since i installed the soft is that sometimes my computer freeze after waking up! Any idea What could be the cause?

Thanks a lot

Hi Eugenyo, happy it works.
yes, the “freeze after wake up” bug is a known one, I think it happens in the Proxy Framebuffer kext, but since it is related to proxy programming I haven’t found a clue on how to fix it. This is the bug tracking post:

Thanks

Andrea,

I’m a newcomer to Syphon and am attempting to use the Virtual Screen to bridge between QLab and Millumin.  I have followed Millumin’s tutorial on this, and am able to have Qlab send to the Virtual Screen, but am unable to get Millumin to discover and utilize the Syphon server.  Also, it took me a while to find a functional version of your program and wonder if I have the newest build (as many of the links on this thread seem to lead me to a “file not found” error), and not being a code junkie, the version on GitHub is not easy for me to work with.  Any advice on how to approach this problem?

Best,

Berch

[Andrea Cremaschi]

Yep sorry, I did quite a mess in organizing the binaries deployment 🙂
Now I centralized the link to the binaries on the project’s page on github, in case I’d need to change it again (hope not). Please refer to that link for the latest version.

To check if everything is ok with the Qlab/SVS part, why don’t you use Syphon Recorder? It will give you a list of all active Syphon servers on your machine.

Ciao Andreacremaschi:

My name is Alfonso ferri from Barcelona.

I have long been fortunate to have found your wonderful software “Virtual Syphon screen” to communicate with millumin Qlab and able to do mapping.
  a week ago I had the misfortune to be fucked hard disk, so I lost everything.
  I was able to reinstall all programs under the screen Virtual Syphon 0.2 program that has saved me from many problems and I need to do it again. Look and look and not find it on the link above.
  I tried the shyphon Simple Server / Client, forgive my ignorance, but I think it does not work with Qlab ….
Not as you would have to send me the file “SyphonVirtualScreen.pkg”. I am one week the release of my play and I have no other solution for the complexity of the entire assembly.

Thank you very much for everything, I look forward to your response.

[Andrea Cremaschi]

hi alfonso
don’t panic 🙂 and follow this link:
https://github.com/andreacremaschi/Syphon-virtual-screen

Under the section “Binary” you’ll find a link to the pkg.

hope this goes without issues, if you encounter some just tell me
ciao
a.

[vade]

Just so you know, the latest QLab has native Syphon integration both in and out.

[osomaloso]

I know, but I dont have money now. Anyway, finally its ready. Great
Thank.

[osomaloso]

A question. I can not properly install the virtual siphon … I have the logo on the launch, change resolution, the mac screens detector recognizes a new monitor ….. but does not turn green and it does not see millumin or Qlab.
  You know if something good or do not know.
My OS is 10.6.8 snow Leopart

Greetings and thanks.

[osomaloso]

I correct, Qlab if you see the virtual monitor, but to no avail.

[Andrea Cremaschi]

Did you replace the “Syphon Virtual Screen” application in /Applications folder with the one provided in the .zip file?

[osomaloso]

I can not replace a file that is not created in applications folder, once installed the program. I think this is the problem.

[osomaloso]

Ok now I’ve installed it on another computer that is not mine no problems. Maybe my Mac this now a little busy. How I can clear everything and fall upon again?
Pulling all the paper is removed completely without waste to another installation?

[osomaloso]

I uninstalled and reinstalled the software on the other Mac to my friend and there is no problem. But my Mac does not activate Syphor Server.
I uninstalled the software with CleanMyMac, and reinstalled and the problem is the same.
  How I can delete all of this installation and start over.
