Is there any way to export the image files from a frame list Or to get to the actual image files in storage somewhere (MacOS)

Hello everybody, I have a question: How can I create CO2 and flame machines in Capture And how do I connect them to the MA2, or what is the right machine to make the patch.... Can anyone help me Thanks

As the manual has pretty much just got a screenshot of the page. Can someone tell me the differences between each column of the fixtures tab. Location just seems to be a text label. Unit Channel Groups Circuit Patch is obvious as is mode, optics, purpose (text label) and filters, gobos & focus. Or direct me to the part/page of the manual where it's explained.

Hi, I was wondering how exactly grouped objects and location would react to each other.  If I import a piece of truss and copy it like 3 times to build my Lx truss, group them and then assign a Location name in the propertie field ,as 'Lx1' for this example, the Location report show me the 4 piece of truss as it should. When I attach fixture to this group of truss, those fixtures are not reported in the Location report. I have to ungroup the Trusses and then assign to eaxh of them a Loc...

Hi,  I'd like to patch the built in smoke box to a hazer fixture that has an 8bit output and a subsequent 8bit fan control channel. Is there an option to change the smoke box default 2 x 16bit profile to a 2 x 8bit br

Hi there, I use Capture quite a lot for viusalistions for quotes and pitches and often I use the manual control of lights to create some static looks. Is it possible for the session file to store this information as when I come back to the project the fixtures have lost all their 'programming' values... I know the correct way to do this is via DMX from a console, but this then takes time to create and pacth a system, where maybe I am only use a handful of generic fresnels / profiles and it is fi...

New System I have inherited a system at my new job. The venue has a SmartFade 2496. The board has not been used much because no one knows how to control it and the original programmer is long gone. So we just use the couple of stacks that are programmed.I have been watching tutorials and reading the manual, so I have a pretty good understanding of how it works. What I plan on doing is swapping the ETC Smartfade for an ETC ColorSource 40 AV that I have. The ColorSource console came with a bunc...

I have included a screenshot of 3 curved surfaces to which I am trying to map a texture to but having no luck.  The flat surfaces are just fine using the map to extent feature but for the curved sections, I am at a loss as to how to make the texture fit accurately. Yes, the textures sent over NDI to the material used are of the correct proportions/aspect to the physical surface in the model.  If anyone has managed to do this I would love to hear how.

Hi  I am tryring to do a 'circuit' Report, I have assing the circuit to the fixtures thrue the ' sequential' menu, the settings is:  Prefix: HOT X. (X is the number of the multicabel running from that truss) (the . is my way to do a sepration between the name and the number on the plug) Start is set to: 1 and continues from 1-6. what I then want to do is making a report that shows me how much power is Multicabel a using fx. HOT 1 total power = 15000 Watt. Is there a way to do this  ...

Hi ! when rotating objects, especially from different layers, I often face the question : do I need global rotation of the selection or rotation of each of the elements (an option that exists for example in Adobe Illustrator) Eg if I import a dwg file into Capture and wish a side-view of it, I always have to turn the plan in x,y,z axes and move it in order to have it properly aligned on Alpha, Beta and Gamma view. When doing this if I type '90°' in the 'Y rotation field' eg, the result i...
