Hello I just installed VPT 4.1b5 on a macbook pro 13″
It runs but I cant see anything.. Ive tried activated the layers, but nothing..
It shows that the file has been dropped in but I do not see the file…
Also the camera does not to work either.. Am I missing something? is there a master switch somewhere.. I read manual several times now and there doesnt seem to be any mention of this issue,, Any advice?
Thanks

Hi,
there is a master switch just above the yellow reset button.
You also need to turn on each source. If you click in the small monitor window next to the source you should see video/live input. If you don´t see a live input open the settings to check if your livesource can be found. If you don´t see your moviesource, make sure you have actually selected one of the files from the drop-menu.
And, remember to check that the layer you are trying to show your source in is visible (fader up, color something else than black).
hope this helps!

Hello;
Thank you so much for the software. I am trying to set up a video installation using matrox triplehead2go with a film that is in 3 parts but I want to play them simultaneously. I have loaded and can see them and can play as I want them in the mofo window, but I do not know how to make them start at the same time.
Also, I have yet to connect to the system of projectors, but from reading other info. it seems that I drag the mofo window over to display and make full screen and them it will toggle onto 3 projectors?
Thanks again for all.

Hi there!
Amazing program!
Is there a way to open the program using Max/Msp, instead of the application itself? I would love to see behind the scenes on what you did to get some of the functions. I see all of that template and examples, but they are only tiny fractions of the entire thing.
Any idea if it is possible to view the whole patch in Max?
Thx!

the sourcecode for VPT 4 is available, VPT5 code is currently not available, but might be at a later point.

Hey mate, really looking forward to using the software cause it looks great and seems to be the software I was looking for.
I just downloaded and ran VPT6. As soon as it’s started it becomes terribly slow, like using up all internal memory it can find, and that’s when I’m not even doing anything.
I’m using Windows 7 32 bits.
Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Hi, please post your problem on the VPT forum so other windows users can assist you to get it working. It´s also good to mention what kind of graphics card you have, which version of quicktime etc.

HC,
I was going to nervousvision to ask about detail instruction of implementing DMX. I would like to see a tutorial or white paper much like those you have concerning lfo, midi, osc.

Please Help!
I really want to use this program but I am have a number of problems that I am not sure how to fix/
Currently I am using version 5.1 when I try to open the program I repeatidly get a warning about “the program can’t start because jitlib.dll is missing from your computer” how do I fix this?
Secondly, when the program finally open the projection window doesn’t appear, instead it simply says “jit.pwindow”. I have tried downloading the recomended version of quicktime but I’m not sure what to do now.
Please help!!!
Best,
Nick

Hi HC,
Can you tell me whether VPT will work with ARTNET?
It’s a great tool by the way, thanks.

currently only dmx for the enttec device on osx is working. In theory it shouldn´t be so hard to implement artnet but it´s nothing I am working on.
