N.A.N.Y. 2021 / Welcome to NANY 2021

« Last post by mouser on July 31, 2020, 04:21 AM »

NANY is "New Apps for the New Year" -- an event we run on DonationCoder where we invite coders who hang out on the forum to release a new free program at the start of the new year -- or celebrate the new apps they've written in the last 12 months.

There are no winners or losers, everyone who participates gets a free mug commemorating the event.

You can find previous year's forums here: https://www.donation...ndex.php?board=329.0

Release a new app for the new year on Jan 1 and get a DC mug as your reward.
Here's the new alternate design from Hamradio.

Good to see someone getting an early start!
However: Note that the new NANY will be NANY 2021 -- I'll create the section soon

I modified my setup to connect the wooden "boom" to the underside of the bookshelf such that I can just swing it away invisibly into the bookshelf when not in use.

I also use an elgato streamdeck for physical buttons that can do whatever you want, makes life a lot easier.

Looks very fun and useful if you are streaming to switch views.

I wonder if there is a tool for a mobile phone or tablet that one could use instead..

The 660 SHOULD be able to drive all 4 I believe, but I've never tried it.
The real annoyance with drying to drive all 4 from 1 display is that each card has a mixture of ports (dvi, hdmi, displayport), and I've had issues with monitors waking up weirdly when connected to some ports.. The current arrangement seems to work.

I have 2 nvidia display adapters, a GTX 1070 and a GTX 660.

The 660 is actually driving three of my displays, and the 1070 one.

Yeah it is kind of witchery.
For the green screen working area I use a green fabric on my desk:

I've seen vloggers use this approach to great effect, but usually its when they need to show some nice close up view of something being manipulated/painted. I wish I had some excuse to use it!

The software I'm using currently is the commercial tool XSplit Broadcaster but I will also be trying out the open source alternative OBS (Open Broadcaster Software).
They both let you create "scenes" with different cameras and overlays and combine them into one virtual camera that another tool (such as Zoom) sees.

Living Room / Experimenting with a multi-camera setup for zoom, streaming, board game vlogging

« Last post by mouser on July 23, 2020, 11:00 AM »

Today I decided to experiment a little with configuring a multi-camera setup with a top-down camera, for vlogging board games, etc.
With this setup I can switch between front and top down cameras, or combine them, and then ~~easily disconnect the "boom" when not in use~~ just swing away the boom out of view into the bookshelf when not in use (version 2).

Playing with greenscreened top-down overly:

Post New Requests Here / Re: Multi checkboxes when at least one checked enable/disable other inputs

« Last post by mouser on July 22, 2020, 06:57 PM »

You're on the right track.. Did you get it solved yet?

In handleChange, start by setting a variable like "foundOneChecked" to false. Loop through all the check boxes and as soon as you find one that's checked you can set that variable to true (and exit the loop).
Then after the loop finishes, check your variable. If foundOneChecked is not true, then nothing was checked and you can disable or hide the elements. If it's true then enable them.

You can also disable some of those..

I could make a few more optional, AND I could add an option to show EVERYTHING other than the recent clips in their own submenu.. might be a nice option.

Living Room / Re: Favourite youtube channels

« Last post by mouser on July 19, 2020, 02:12 PM »

Hi Zaine!

Thanks for resurrecting this thread, I was just thinking to add a few more channels to it.

Technology Connections discusses some of the cool details of common inventions, very watchable:

Techmoan, another highly watchable well produced channel where a guy reviews usually very old retro media (walkmen, videodiscs, etc.) technology and does serious discussion of its history:

On Cinema at the Cinema. I think Tim Heidecker is one of the most brilliant comedians ever. It's very dry long form humour -- most people won't like it. But for me, it's some of the best that ever was.
