Hi Dave. Your Script Pick program looks interesting. Yes, we do have some similar offerings!The cue markers in yours are pretty neat, although they seem to be not absolute positions as they move when I change the window size.Being able to highlight specific text and / or add some sort of...

I have the 2 page mode working with a side by side layout. Would there be any need for a 2 page mode where the pages are one above the other?

I guess the master can simply suspend sending page changes (but continue to send a heartbeat). They would have to return back to the current page number before resuming sending page changes. Maybe when they suspend the current page number is stored and used to jump back to (for the master)...

Allowing the master reader to jump around without sending the updated page number will need some thought about the implementation.Yes, sending the page changes would be the absolute page number, not a "next" command. Otherwise things could get out of sync.Adding a button to quickly switch...

Thanks for the continued discussion. It's given me some ideas for how to implement some of the features and controls.

Having the page change transmitted would only be an option. A separate option would be to accept page change requests. A reader could be standalone by default.You could have one or more readers that send out page change data. It's up to the other readers if they respond to it.So you could...

Thinking about this more, would it be useful to have the option of making one of the PDF readers a master?That way it could send page change messages to the other instances instead of having a different application do the sending.

The whole multicast range is 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 so I'll allow that. I have it working now. Just need to make the settings a bit nicer.

Were you thinking of the 239.255.x.x range as used by SACN or some of the other ranges?

I've written a program to display PDF files in a window. You can control the displayed page by sending OSC messages to it.Although I wrote it to display scripts and change page under control of MultiPlay, it can be controlled by any program sending OSC messages.More details are in the...

Just a bump to make sure people know that MultiPlay has a forum these days: https://da-share.com/forum/Although the v3 releases are still marked as beta, it's being used by a lot of people now.New features and improvements are being done all the time.

There are W+WW WS2811 strips on AliExpress, but no string types that I could see.

If you want something finer, look at the new WS2811 "seed" nodes. They can be got with pixel spacings from 5cm (2") to 30cm (12") and with clear, green or black wires. They are still RGB of course, with no specific WW element..

Maybe when they say "my time is more valuable than doing that" they're not talking about money? Maybe it's about lifestyle, peace of mind or abilities. I mean I *could* paint my house, but I never would because I simply don't like painting.

The instructions do say Bluetooth, but I suspect that the range will be less than you think / hoped especially indoors.
