What do you use SVS for? Drop a line!

[andreacremaschi]

Hi
SVS is free to use and open-source: if you really want to say thanks you can buy me a beer, or it would be great to know what are you using SVS for.
Please drop a line if you do!

Hi!

We (http://lasophiste.com/) plan to use SVS for a interactive, collaborative video mapping and VJ-ing performance, along with Romanesco (http://romanesc.co/#-874.00,958.00).

SVS will be great to easily transfer anything from any browser to a mapping software :-)

Initially, we planned to use websockets to send images from the web canvas to our C++ app, but we had troubles using ofxLibwebsockets (https://github.com/labatrockwell/ofxLibwebsockets).

Thanks ! If everything works as intended (we might change technology until the deadline), be sure you will have a nice and fresh belgium beer 🍺 :-)

Great! Thank you for your note

Hi, I installed Syphon Virtual Screen in order to use another computer as an external monitor, by sharing the virtual screen created by Syphon with a VNC.

@alessanderbotti thank you. You could obtain the same result with AirParrot+AirServer (two commercial apps), or OSX 10.9+AirServer. Sure, they are not open source and they are not free :)

You sir, deserve a bottle of the finest whiskey! :-)
You so made my day (month, year) by providing the missing link between two applications I use to VJ:
Ant Zero's Atomic View, which I use as a Digital Assets Manager to navigate into a large collection of video clips by keyword or color and Resolume Arena to run the show.
Until now I had to use two Macs for both apps and video grab the output from Atomic View and feed it into the Arena Mac. Now I can do all of this inside of one powerful Macbook Pro, making my whole set a lot more portable! :-)
I have been looking for this for a long time.
Many thanks for creating this great piece of software!

Best regards,

P.S. how can I make a donation to you?

[andreacremaschi]

@barthvis thank you! But SVS is free as in "you can't either make a donation" :) Enjoy!

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am Yoshihiko SHINOZAKI in CASIO Computer Co., LTD. and I am in
charge of the product specification enginner of our Projectors.

We plan to introduce the Mac application in the market, which works
with Casio projectors. The application requires "Syphone Virtual Screen" to be
installed. In this connection, we think to post a link to the following site.
Is it ok?

Hi Yoshihiko,
yes that one is the official page of the project. I would really be interested in knowing more about how you are going to integrate SVS within your own app. Why don't you contact me in PM at:

syphonvirtualscreen at gmail dot com

Thank you!

Hey I just wanted to say SVS is awesome! I use it in my University Planetarium to play everything from Mario Kart, to live astronomy visualizations up on the dome. SVS is great for live elements to the show, I route the Syphon channel into CoGe, our VJ software, and onto the dome for geeky parties and performances. Thanks for the great program!

[andreacremaschi]

Awesome! I'd love to see that

Another planetarium guy here! Heard about SVS from David Lublin in a VJ course at Dubspot, NYC. I've been playing with Syphon in Unity and Processing over the years, but this past year we finished a massive construction project - community center with a 30 ft diameter planetarium. We do workshops with teens to produce our own dome shows. This will be a new tool for that. But I also just started working with Fadecandy, for LED displays. So Unity, VDMX, Syphon, Fadecandy, SVS - fun! (BTW thx for your quick answer to my question from last night)

Hi, It seems the kext runs very laggy on Yosemite, is there any solution? Thanks.
