false color?

I was going to say the EQ RGB, but then you would have to take out the mids and bass

I'm gonna try that. Thanks. I don't think playing a all treble set would go over well.

Do you have an edirol v4?

if it's a projector, would a red gel from a light can do the trick?

I dont just the 57. I'm running to 15 or so LCD screens.

what about adjusting your secondary monitor on your computer? pretty sure you and adjust hue and such.

^can adjust hue

an edirol v4 would allow you to take a PNG image, red with 30% opacity and just lay it over your VSL feed.

Mac or PC?

Mac

1. Go to /Library/Application Support/ScratchLive/Plugins
2. Right click on 'Scratch Video Plugin.app' and select 'show package contents'
3. Go into Contents/Resources/Effects
4. open 'FS_sepia.effect' in any text editor
5. Change the lines:
To:
6. Save the file (this may require overwriting or changing the permissions for the FS_sepia.effect file)
7. Now reload SSL/VSL and use the 'sepia' effect. The dial will determine how dark the 'red' effect is.

NB: This works on Windows too, it is just that steps 1-3 are different
NB2: This *isn't* supported functionality of Video-SL ;-)

And be careful to only change those lines. If something else is changed it may not work anymore and the sepia effect will disappear from the list in VSL. You can always get it back to normal by reinstalling...

You can tweak the numbers as well. Playing with it it looks like Might be better as then you can really crank the red

Awesome! Demon, you need to give Nathan a tip.
Off to go break something!

i was just gonna say play blame it by jamie foxx all night

Word up! You da man Nathan, I'll try that tonight. Thank you.

nathan, you get major props for that. that's top notch support. thanks for helpin us!

No worries. But as I said: this isn't officially supported by Serato. I just took a break from what I was working on and saw this thread :-)

Thank you so much Nathan! Works like a charm. You da man!

hmm...perhaps this can be done as a future effect? adjustable color tones? so we don't have to do these unsupported techniques?

I'm into that

im down.

and 1.1 isn't a final yet.... ;P

There are hundreds of different effects we *could* do. The problem is that most of these will only be useful once or twice to a few people so we try to balance the number in the list with usability. I think it is fair to say that apart from a theme night there would be *very* limited reason to have this effect, yeah?

Ideally at some point there would be a way for you guys to write and share your own effects so you can have as many as you want. But that is not possible yet.

But it should be ;-) so no new effects for that sorry (as much as I'd like to do that instead of fixing driver related bugs)

i love the color idea, and think that alot of people would use!!
but im more the transitions

need more. im already bored... hahahA

you know, they use the same system as the effects (i.e. it is possible to write your own if you get your hands dirty ... not that I would openly suggest doing something unsupported ;-)

it would be really sweet to do a webex class on this. I know this isn't supported, but we all don't need a bunch of people cluelessly breaking VSL, making the program look unstable.

^ wishful thinking?

yuh.. nathan. im dumb, so theres now ayu... i have to rely on people like u. my friends that do know about computers hate me, they never pick up my calls. LOL

There are some very talented guys here on the forum who have already been doing these tweaks for themselves (I don't want to call them out in case they'd prefer to remain under the radar). I'm not sure I can get permission to do a tutorial myself, at least not in the short term...but if one of those guys offered ;-)

Eventually I really hope to have all the information and requirements for this to be public domain and the ability to drop in user-created effects/transitions to be part of the feature set for VSL. But that falls down the priority list given some of the other outstanding functionality and relies on a few other features we have in the pipeline.

well, not like this new effect would be a whole NEW effect, but more like the sepia effect, but MODIFIED so we can have any color we want...sepia 1.1 =P

i don't think it's a huge secret

It's not a huge secret but I don't want to be responsible for people getting unnecessarily bugged :-)
