    Hey tom

    I did follow the instructions in the readme, i put the plugins in the /Library/Graphics/Quartz Composer Plug-Ins/ and also tried the ~”user”/Library/Graphics/Quartz Composer Plug-Ins/ folder, but still got the above..

    I’m not at the same machine now, but made a screenshot showing both the plugins in the right folder and the error message..

    It all works on my own machine, following the same steps.

    hey there

    -The streamclip doesnt do it.

    – And Im not a programmer(nor a rocket scientist) so im afraid i cannot do anything about it myself.

    so i think its just bad luck. Next time im going to record something important ill use the internal disk to get around this happening again.. hopefully my disk can handle this.

    Hey again

    I have used the recorder for taping some shows now, it works really well. Thanks again. I have also used it to do preproduction, setting my stuff up in vdmx, recording to animation (or..) in syphon recorder, putting it all back in vdmx, at a different layout, recording again etc.

    This have led me to want two features:
    Midi/osc assignable record/stop record /snapshot buttons: – when in a show pressing the record button requires me to locate my syphon recorder window, and then pressing the record button, which which resices the window, and i need to find the button to stop it. Not much of a hazzle, but if/when my vdmx b8 crashes during a show i need to restart vdmx, and i need to both stop my recording and start it again when vdmx is up and running. So it would be faster and more efficien to have midi.

    Another feature i could like was presets for recording codecs and resolutions. This is especially good to have in preproduction use where i sometimes change the resolution a lot, from square to 4:1 format, animation to aic, from alpha to no alpha etc..

    Im really thrilled about the app and the framework. I even used the syphon route into vdmx because of glitches in the built in videoinput in vdmx b8 is strangely glitchy in my setup, which was solved by a small quartz syphon video input composition running in the background.

    ..its working out here, and its good. thanks!!

    Hi vade, super ok trick.. 🙂

    Actually i’m on a super slow disk, fw dropping to 400 because of dv capture, no expresscard, and thunderbolt around the corner The streams arent that high definition anyways, worked fine for 1600×400 to aic writing to a FW drive.. so figure a single sd res stream extra would be ok..

    I’ve been using the recorder to record my latest gig, it worked really well. Now i want more:-)

    I want to be able to record more than one syphon stream at a time. As it is now i cannot figure how to launch more than one instance of the recorder.
    I work using a lot of cameras, coming in as a live input stream to vdmx(due to some bugs n the live input in vdmx I actually use a quarts->syphon stream). It would be great if i could at once record my main output, and the incoming camera signals..

    Is it this planned, dreams or just me demanding to much? 🙂

    Syphon is soo coll. once more thanks!

    Hey Vade

    So cool to have a recorder, it seems to work quite well. One feature i could use is recording audio from the mac itself. Often i sit building stuff in vdmx, listening to the tracks im gonna play to on the same machine. Would be much easier to go the direct route and not have to use the: minijack splitter- and minijack out and in again..

    Thanks!

    Best
