Are all your templates not loading or is it only a certain one ? If it is only a certain one, then it may be corrupt. If so, you can email it to me and I'll see if I can fix it for you.

You should also save your templates using Panel Builder Desktop version 4.0.59 to be compatible with mobile devices.

Hi Joeboe,

Try not to use commas in the filename. It's usually not good practice.. This is what stopped it from loading.

You also had some unused objects outside of the template window. This is usually OK (although not recommended) for Desktop templates, but it's not good for iPad templates. This will prevent he templates from resizing properly on mobile devices.

I just noticed that there is no way to load all icons at the same time as in earlier versions of PB...I have to load one at a time....

There is a new update v1.0.10 for Android Tablets and now supports Android Phones (New). Go to Play store for latest version.

- Added compatibility with Panel Builder Desktop version 4.0.59 features
- Added "Fit to Screen" option in preferences - This will resize the template to the best of it's ability if device the size is different from the original template
- Can now be used on both Tablets and Phones - Ideally the templates should be designed to fit the device size.


enjoy,
Richard

It would, also, be helpful if some buttons could be set at a different color to show that they are 'active' and 'inactive'. This would be useful when using buttons to switch between multiple camera shots, indicating which shot is the currently active shot, much like the activators are used for lighting LEDs on MIDI controllers.

BTW, I love the way the Overlay functions work within the app.



Hi, I have been using this app from day one....and I have always been able to change the colours of my buttons to show active, and preview, the same professional switchers work...actually, I have even use my own designs on the buttons, so as to look more like a few pro switchers e.g:


This is one of my simpler ideas, which I use on a 2 cam layout for a laptop, and I place it over the Preview on the UI of vMix, as I seldom use the preview... I have many more layouts which I designed over the years that I no longer use....

I think there is a bug or 2 .....Sometimes PB locks up and is unresponsive and has to be closed via the Task Manager, and I just found that some icons do not tally anymore....The "Set Gain" does not tally....the actual gain is working, but the Icon does not tally to show how much the gain isselected...it worked before, but I was just setting up for an assignment when I noticed it

You have some fairly complex templates. If the panel becomes unresponsive, it's usually because something is not programmed correctly within an object. Possibly a button pointing to a non-existing Input or a missing icon ? Do you maybe have some unused objects outside of the panel's visible window that might be the cause ? Although there is some error checking within the app, it's difficult to check for all the permutations.

As far as the "Set Gain" function goes, it never did tally as such. I'm not sure how you had it before ?

The tally on 'Set Gain' used to tally, as that is why I use it in the first place...I would set a button to different levels, (4db, 8db, 16db, etc,) so that if audio is low, I could just bump it up accordingly...look at the images I posted above...'0' is off, and the others are db levels the same way the Buses tally. This simple app has a lot more possibilities than you may think....I try some things with this app that I do not see others doing...this is a really beautiful companion to vMix, and now I have my iPads syncing.....I am flying high....(showing off)....

Hello Guys, I wanted to share the templates I created for instant replay and Vmix switcher on tablet. They are working just fine..gimme your thoughts or ask any question


For the requests:
*Is it possible to have a wheel icon (like the t-bar) to emulate the ReplayFasForward/ReplayFastBackward jog-shuttle controller?
* The ReplaySwapChanel function is missing. I used a script as a turnaround. That works fine but still....That would be nice to have it


3 questions:
Am I the only who are having video stuttering when I ReplayFasForward/ReplayFastBackward? The video is not smooth at all
Is there any VPB documentation? I'm still trying to figure out how to use certains options
Why can't I have tally icon activate when I press the ReplayCamera?

Regards y'all / Bonne soirée

Hi Richard,

I ran across an issue with PB, and don't know if it is fixable or if I am doing it wrong.

Tallys don't seem to work like expected on inputs that are PTZ inputs. I ran across it with a PTZ camera, and tested it with a new preset and vMix's Virtual PTZ feature. When using a tally in PB (eg. PVW/PGM tally) on the original PTZ input, the tally only works on the _last_ PTZ position input created. It does not work on the original PTZ input and not on the other PTZ position inputs.

I found this older post from you regarding a similar issue, but am not sure if it should behave differently: https://forums.vmix.com/...er--Controller#post69441

So, if I had a choice :) I'd like the tally on the original PTZ input to work on _every_ PTZ position input (i.e. the orginal PTZ input _and_ the PTZ positions no. 1 to x tally the original input). Second best would be, if the behaviour for the original input was like for every other input (i.e. the original PTZ input tallies the original PTZ input).

Do you think it is possible to change the behaviour? Thank you!

I have not focused much on using Panel Builder to build "Replay Controllers" as much as other functions. Adding a shuttle wheel is fairly complex but I will look into this for future updates..

The missing "ReplaySwapChannel" command was an oversight . I will add it in the next update.

The "Panel Builder Documentation" is available in a link in the first post of this thread.

I will look into adding tallies for the ReplayCamera functions in the next release.

regards,
Richard

Hi Richard, I hope that you can fix the "Tally" on the audio gain.....it worked well with earlier versions, but now it is not working....The tallies are important so I can see if, or how much gain I have added to an input.....
I know I have some complex templates, but if you only knew what a fantastic app you have created, you will be tempted also to do complex things...this is a great app.....

Yes the Virtual PTZ inputs behave a little different in the API XML in that they have the same "Input Name" as the original Input.

Having said that, in the meantime, you can manually enter the "Input number" in the buttons, rather than selecting the Input Name. That should give you the Tally for the selected Virtual PTZ Input. You just won't be able to move your Inputs around without modifying your template.

I should be able to fix this in the next release.

Sorry Joeboe, I can't reproduce the tallies on the "SetGain" buttons even back to version 29. The "SetGain" command never did produce a Tally.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you are looking for :(

Hi

Is it possible to display the remaining time of a video/input on a button?

Has anyone found a solution for this?

Thanks! Patrick

Why would you want a display on the button....check the bottom picture in post #927, see where the player has the display of the length of the clip, and the time remaiming.....
