hello Richard
i was at frankfurt yesterday and on the stand of high end there's a new version of the catalyst with multiple mix in one mix.... when can we have this new version ? and there has an other new fonction ?

Yves

Hello Yves,
this was a beta version of Catalyst and for Demo only and shown at the Arcus/High End booth.
This is just to show that Catalyst software is moving straight forward and can stand against other competitors.

+1!!! I could really use this version as it has some features I need for an upcoming show. I fear I may loose the rental to a pandoras box!

What features do you need that aren't in earlier builds such as m365?

Hugh

hello AndreK
thanks for your answer.
but i work with catalyst since few years and i work with hippotizer also, but i think some fonction on catalyst can be update like "speed" more low and more fast ... with smoothing. and the FX engine was soo poor i think...
is it possible to have a new fonction like "video mapper" ...

thanks

Yves

Re Video Mapper - you need to speak to Richard....

Exact Mapping in mix options does the video mapper thing. It's been in Catalyst for ages. I've done load of shows with it.
I find Hippo's Video Mapper rather limited by comparison - as you can use a combination of Exact mapping and transparent mix windows to amazing effect.

As for the frame blending effect then look no further than the FX Editor - again this has been in there for ages. If you click on the layer number in your layers hud you have the option of doing super slo mo too.

Hugh

Exact Mapper is not in a released version Hugh - on request from RB only.

Yeah, thats what Im after, Exact Mapper. Ive also heard it called Exact Pixel too.

is that like using madmapper? more warping points?

hello everyboby
thanks for your answer.
first: why "exact mapper" is not in the current version ?
second: i know "madmapper" but there's no driver for work with catalyst directly on the computer ...
for the person who know "video mapper " of hippotizer, is it possible to have multiple mix inside one mix.
i make a explain in the picture attach

it would be nice if you have a picture in full screen mode and you place multiple mix inside in "x-y" position and can rotate it like you want
then at the end your mix output is only the picture in this mix and not the full screen. but for this work, the XY of the all mix need to be respect for the output for concerve the position and the rotation of the picture
i'm not shure for my explain is clear ... look the picture

thanks

Yves

Richard has not probably not released Exact Mapper as he is not happy to let it out of beta testing.

You can certainly rotate the content in a mix with the current release.

Nev.

Exact Mapping has been in for the last 18 months - and I have been using it since then.

It works fine. Once you know how to use it ;-)

Hugh

Exact Mixes is not in a PUBLIC RELEASE build - it is private only... even though its been around for months... it may be subject to further changes.

The current PUBLIC RELEASE (26/03/12) is CatalystPM 4.40_m364_HD

Those of use with more recent PRIVATE builds should remember that these are indeed PRIVATE - not for public use or viewing or open discussion!!!

Anyone else should refer to Richard directly for any queries about 'exact mixes'

Simon

Oh yes they are - they're in m364 and any build in the last 18 months.

Hugh

NO its not in M364 - see screenshot from m364
theres NO EXACT MIX option...

It might be in later builds - but they are not PUBLIC

I re-itterate my previous post...

S

Mea Culpa. I had Elbow out on m334 last year.

It is in m365 however!

H.

Yes - but those are all PRIVATE non-public versions!!!

The current PUBLIC version does not include the exact mixes function

S

they arent in m364 because i havent finished it

current public version doesnt include this -

because i havent finished it

Hi richard
