PSN tracker as follow target for moving head fixtures? (Symphony)      

Started By  Yan
Hi, I'm working on a UWB-based tracking system (custom, sending PSN v2.03 multicast) and I've successfully connected it to Capture 2024 Symphony. What works: - Capture receives the PSN stream and displays the trackers - I can link a Motion Construct to a PSN tracker — the object moves on stage in real time What I'm trying to achieve: - Have a moving head fixture point at the Motion Construct as it moves — using the tracker as a follow/focus   target for pan/tilt - I don't need Cap...

NDI streams in Presentation export      

Started By  Floriaan
I want to give an export of my Capture file (as presentation) to the video designers. I've set-up two NDI inputs on my own machine - one for each videoprojector. Is there a way to get this working on the computer of some one who does not own a Capture license (like you can do with sACN/ArtNet data)

2D Symbols not rendering in custom 180° rotated Side View (Paper Tab)      

Started By  simR
Hi everyone, I'm a new user of Capture form France ; I'm working on Capture 2025 and I'm having an issue with 2D symbols in the Paper tab. I have a rigged scaffolding tower. When I use the default side view, my fixtures appear correctly with their 2D plot symbols. However, I need a 'Stage Left' view (the opposite side). To achieve this, I move and I rotate the camera at 180°. As soon as I do this, the fixtures lose their 2D symbols and revert to their 3D wireframe representation (isomet...

Distribute from center      

Started By  Jou_lz
Hello, I'm trying to distribute/align a selection of fixtures from the center instead from a corner, but I don't know if it's possible (I tried some Ctrl/Alt/Shift keys combination). Regards

Adjusting Fixture information in plots      

Started By  oneferny
Hi, I'm working on a project where many of the fixtures are very close to each other, and at the moment the way the channels appear on the plan means there's a lot of overlap/it's a big mess. Is there a way of adjusting the channel location relative to the unit, its priority, its background colour, etc Thanks

Rear projection screen – recommended workflow in Capture?      

Started By  Pace
Hi, I’m looking for the recommended workflow in Capture for creating a rear projection screen. For front projection, I usually use a simple flat object (or thin box) from the Library and set its width/height as the projection surface. That works fine. For rear projection, I’m unsure about the best approach: Should the screen be a flat object with a specific material / transparency Is an Image object preferred for rear projection use Is there a recommended way ...

Using Imported CAD Models for Fixtures: Is There a Solution?      

Started By  Lukas Schäffner
Is there a way to use imported CAD drawings of fixtures instead of the placeholder models that are sometimes available in the library Specifically, the Atomic 3000 LED from Martin is represented as a 'box'. On Martin's website, the model is available in DWG or 3DS file format. However, the imported model cannot be controlled via DMX. Is there a solution for this (Capture 2024) This often seriously breaks the immersion... I would be grateful for any ideas.
