CITP Implementation

Hey :)

Is there any chance that the CITP protocol will be implemented into the eos family software?

One really importand point for me is the possibility to get thumbnails from my media server! (Unfortunately my workaround needs time wich i usually do not have) Furthermore would it make my life much easier if it would be possible to exchange the patch between software and console and to use the "autofocus" function.

As i remember there are any problems with some patents in the USA? Is this still the reason for not supporting and why is it possible for all the other manufacturers?

cheers

Julian, we are discussing the limits of this - there are intellectual property considerations. Some manufacturers have licensing agreements with the patent holders.

More when we know more.

Thanks,

anne

Hi Anne,
maybe you came to an agreement with the patent holders in relation to the acquisition of HES? ;)
Are there some news wich will make me happy?

best regards

Hi Anne,

I was wondering if this has made any headway. We (ImageCue) are looking at implementing CITP thumbnails but have been holding off for various reasons, one of them being that ETC doesn't support it. Happy to take this offline if you want.

Hi Bill. Not yet. But it is getting higher on the list.

That's about all I can say at this point. Thanks much!

Now when Cobalt got it I guess the patent parts isn't the problems any more? It's so nice to have it with Capture and just select all moving lights, right click on screen and all focus where you want, record position pallet and klick on new spot. saves hours of focusing if you want a big grid of focus pallets.

I would really like to see this implemented in EOS as well. Let’s hope that Cast Lighting will get on board with this also (they currently only support the streaming video part of the protocol). Otherwise support for Casts autofocus and auto patch protocol is also highly appreciated.

Hi, is this stil on someones radar? The communication between EOS and Capture would also greatly benefit from CITP support.

CITP is a big collection of different things. Most people (from my experience) refer to CITP when they want the thumbnail exchange between a lighting console and a video server. Which is think is not the aspect you're referring to?

I think the communication between Capture and Eos you're referring to could be done with Capture's OSC link to Eos?

All of it could be done via OSC from the Capture side or via CITP from EOS side. If you want patch information that auto-updates or positional information (to align the X, Y, Z and rotation values) then it could be useful to implement a dynamic standard with two-way communication. Maybe CITP is not the best way, but it would be great to have a connection between augment3d and the visualiser/light plot.

If you have your light plot in Capture, connect it to EOS, send over the patch, calibrate the rig with Augmen3d and the iRFR app, send the info back to update the plot, etc., etc. that would make me very happy as a workflow...
