Anyone on starlink yet?
I know, it's miserable....the only way I can get a better rate is to cancel. Wait (about a month) for a tech to become available, then re-buy under a different name.
I want a starlink for Isla del Coco, which is very remote and we don't have decent or even usable internet...
I think we pay $120AUD a month for 1k/100
Let's all report our speeds to Fiber Deserts!
I know a couple people who were looking at starlink here as we have a lot of rural areas. I can't recall if they got it yet
Wow, colored buildings and all. Look cool.
Although usually with one device it's only about 500/40
For me, we have to wait until starlink registers as a CR provider, which they say 2022, but I doubt it.
I watched someone YT streaming over starlink. Did not go well.
Could you get around that business/consumer by getting a business plan for a home-based business?
What color are the buildings where the NSA sniffs everything? :ΓΎ
You can indeed get business at a residence for a registered home business... For here, anyway
I have 10G network, want internet to match!
...and here I am, still rocking my Apple Airport Extreme. Wifi 6? π»
Most of my WiFi is N300, lol
Me too, @waxen thistle
My speedtest says I have 36 mbit to my Airport. While streaming YT.
Internet should be as easily accessed as food and water
Oh yeah, food and water more important XD
I like maps
And BTW, I'm learning to make maps, but hand. By using a sextant and compass, no gps here.
In non-covid future, I expect to make a large map of Coco's Island, make a map of the island by hand, have a pro calligrapher draw it, and then sell them and give the profits for the park rangers.
Wow!!
I installed LibreSpeed at home and did run speed-test to it from various place in my house, and on various technology (Wifi, CPL, Gigabit). Should I do a map?
No data package for me, thanks.
π€Ώ
and too fast to count
Error on line 400 might be hard to count on LED, too...
It flashes each digit.
Oh, ok, lol
Missed the beginning. π¦ (A) What is the recommended CM4 for Piunora CP future use? (B) Did you see on #show-and-tell that Micha (@proven crow) plan to work on CP bare metal on Pi4 and he hope you saw it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TadsJYIkkig&t=1200s
I would recommend eMMC mostly for cases where you plan to run it unattended for a long time
Perfect.
otherwise I personally find SDcards a bit nicer because you can remove the storage
but for installations and exhibits they are crappy
I love my CP board because they have on board flash and I don't have to find a microSD card every time I want to use them... that is my problem with all of my Pi.
for sure that can be a good reason, I usually just leave the cards in the pi
eMMC price is about the same as you pay for a SDCard
(off topic: The Zhurong (the mars rover from china) will touch down in ~56 min)
Feather M4?
have a feather M4 can, does this works?
i think i have a Feather M4 around here. I have a hallowing M4 and ItsyBitsy M4 here
at this point you can only marvel at the broken red led through the clear resin π
right
yea they are very big on the neopixel, can even use a normal camera to see it
I have a mini SAM M4 and a MatrixPortal M4 here.
One time I had a NeoPixel explode
So, if this is the issue, should it be a good idea to recommend to lady ada, to add to the test env, to cycle through
?
Scott, Serial Board Abuser!
same , lots of m4 , but no feather π
What do we need to test, is in the board, now what?
So is it your firmware/code that destroyed the
?
I used to burn a common anode RGB Led, in "robotics" class, so show the students that you need to check the pins a bunch of times before powering up π
mine is blinking red
Yeah the neopixel is not working
yay
Should I develop a high-endurance board for Scott that he can't break?
or maybe not
two red blinks in a row
How many dead pixel before you can ask a RMA?
Probs 0.33~
Scott it prints the colors in the serial but no neopixel for the Feather M4 CAN.
need any other test done on this before i put it away (and wonder where my second M4 feather got to)
Yes thank you
its a build on demand moment
i was about to dump my adafruit box of stuff on the ground to look π
can
If you want to test RED, you can try CP code to turn the NeoPixel to RED...
two yellow, then two red (repeating)
'Adafruit CircuitPython 7.0.0-alpha.2-566-g2464f2a00-dirty on 2021-05-14; Adafruit Feather M4 Express with samd51j19'
i see the yellows at startup too
i see the reds too sorry
Random, what OS is this?
yellows at startup... then code crashes (MPY version error) and see the two red blinks
Ah, haven't seen Arch in a while
I get the white NeoPixel while in the repl.
The red is after a code.py error that dropped you to the REPL
NOP NOP NOP
White in non-safe-mode repl.
Mine is the m4 express... the blinks are after my code.py errors out. If I hit enter to drop fully into the repl then it goes bright white
ok, same here
Hookup a few potentiometers to set in values, sprintf() their values, and when you're good, copy+paste?
going to try an inflight filament insert (no sensor on this printer)
lol
i started a print to test. and it seems to be working. so hate to throw it away
I like cutting the tip of the new filament to be pointy, helps make sure it feeds in well
Flat end might catch on something going in
Microscope time!
You should give away your old not-totally-dead M4 boards, lol
i ordered the filament sensor today. cant believe i didnt with the printer.
Hopefully I'll get to meet you some day then!
I mean, not just for a board XD
I'd need to do a 3 week roadtrip for coffee :P
It's ALWAYS worth it for coffee
lol
β
Fully vaccinated in a month⦠four hours for coffee sounds like a plan
Not blinding yourself is good!
Do not stare into the laser with remaining good eye
lol
And then a future conference in EU to meet @glad mortar in person too π
I wonder why Hugo isn't [object Object] like everyone else...
Ok. The list of folks here I want to meet is longβ¦
mood
Hugo is fancy
lol
you can catch me at CCC when ever it happens physically again
I am chic *z-snaps*
No blink code for flashing the wrong image?
Did that feather had a #1 sticker in the package? :ΓΎ
lol
how was your gdb connected ?
Are all those prints just for debugging? Why not comment them out?
In π¨π·, right?
git rebase -i HEAD~4
is the "absolute newest" builds from the 6.3.x branch or the 7.x branch?
filament change seems to have worked.
I'm downloading this video, and clipping this rebase part to keep it for reference π
Eventually Iβll visit Costa Rica again, but Iβm currently in Oregon, US.
Ahh, I see. This are still slow here, only my parents.
Interesting, you use Vim for git work, not ST?
if we kept debug prints but commented, every other line would end up having one in my code over time π
vim is a superior tool π
nano
I'm better at testing than building π
Didnβt work. Oh well.
Before check in remove todos. Unless ES.
RIP
i can edit and save in nano, with help π
I can edit and save in nano without help
i'm cooking some petg to do the print again.
I really want microscope time before the stream ends
oh hey git sent me an email
Thanks Scott for an excellent show!
I desire a 24 hour live stream of sweet baby catto
Thanks for hanging out Scott :D
I'm adding a Metro to my cart!
Very nice stream, enjoy the week all.
Thanks Scott
Ooo Maps! I have a repo I'm working on with some data on locked roads (for overlanding) so I will totally rewind. Thanks Scott!
now to find where i put my 2nd feather M4...

Have a good weekend friends!

@rapid hornet It would be cool to see this but instead of hiding the not implemented CPython modules, make the CirctuiPython modules BOLD or slight larger so you can see both lists but with CirctuitPython highlighted
@left pier I used pre so its a bit tricky
there is a script for it in github.com/tannewt/presentations
Open source everything. π
@proven crow just saw the show and tell! let me know if you can help you sort anything out for CP on the rpi bare metal
π
I will be streaming some work on CircuitPython libraries and other projects this morning. Hang out with me here in the chat, on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xh-J02GFqg or Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/foamyguy_twitch
Afternoon, I'm listening and lurking.
I wonder if you could extract the navigation button code to a function.
You know you want to implement the back stack from android π
@smoky island What's the command to run cookiecutter from a local template?
cookiecutter [path]/[to]/[local cc repo]/
Attempting to test now
A quick look suggests all files are there. Can you remember a specific file that was missing?
Yes the PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE is there.
I'm going to check inside a few files.
Should any of the files/directories that were created by cookiecutter have ORG in the name anywhere?
It's OK.
I just twigged that I needed to apply an empty prefix
I'll review on github.
Hello Ladies and Gentlemen. So what are we doing today?
Yeah, I am fine now, had a strong reaction of my vaccination on thursday. All good yesterday already.
Yeah, my body reacted like I had high fever. Like that was true. Ha, just 1Β°C over normal. π
Progress!
Have a great weekend everybody 
Thanks all π
After relaxing at the package resort in Oakland for an entire day UPS finally told me that it would be delivered on Monday. But at the last minute they changed their mind and they just delivered it a half hour ago. yay! I hope you have yours too. Now I'm poking around looking to see when the unboxing is.
Ahh, I love the feeling of getting a package earlier than you expected!
Yes! Good luck with yours. The store still says its available so I imagine you'll get one. I noticed there are 25 adabox 15's still available. The Clue board in that package is pretty nice.
I ordered one of the 15s for a CLUE! Very excited!
Oh, I just found out from JP's last show that the Adabox 18 unboxing isn't until Wednesday. For some reason I thought it was today,
I signed up this morning for AdaBox, page still says they're in the last few slots for 18... I have my fingers crossed, but I'm not keeping my hopes up XD
It took me far too long to figure out that they're quarterly and don't stick around forever, lol
Good luck with that!
Thanks, fingers crossed :D
@upbeat matrix I did get mine! On Thursday just like the ups website said I would. I am so excited for the unboxing stream. I am glad yours made it too. I really have only had one go missing one time but I am nervous Everytime now.
that's great!
@proven crow I just saw this tweet where @glad mortar was doing some UART experiments with bare metal on Pionora/CM4 https://twitter.com/timonsku/status/1393985446384967683
Playing with bare metal C on the Piunora/CM4.
UART TX from the Pi works, echoing back not yet.
I'm working of a guide so not sure if its my adapter or something else. https://t.co/vEaP9r6y30
I'm working off these two repos. They are largely the same but the pi4 one has a bit easier to read code imo, though not as many examples

Question: what is the reason the processor is rotated 45 degrees to the board?
Hi all.
Good evening @gusty wedge !
Bit late. Was baking cookies.
Hope you brought enough for everyone! πͺ
Free cookie for vaxed people with pull requests π
Mmmm cookies, what type?
chocolate chip. Alton brown's "the chewie", with slight mods.
I'm late, but I got my Adabox and was super psyched for the free year of IO+
I'm just re-watching last night episodes. I like that keeboars logos so much... very cool.
Everyone, make sure your carts are ready and loaded with the items you need want simply MUST have before JP's product pick starts in 2 hours π

AH! I CAN BE READY FOR HIM TO TAKE MY MONEY THIS TIME!
Provided it requires few muns
I already have to skip eating for the next month after my order XD
ohno i already have one of those :(
this week's product
What is it? I thought he didn't show yet
it's on the youtube video, it's the title of the stream
Ohh, I didn't see it was up yet
To the tube!
Ah, I don't has. adds to cart
I can get the rotary encoder I forgot to get for my Rotary Trinkey because I'm dumb, lol
i might pick up another 1 or 2 though
hehe
So can I have the mystery item pre-loaded in my cart, or do I have to add and purchase after someone presses the magic button?
i don't actually know
@autumn turret You're a knower of things, would you happen to know the answer to that question?
Afternoon all. Making my lunch. Loading my shopping cart... π
I don't know with certainty, but I think it's added to your order/receipt after ordering.
Goodbye muns... it was nice knowing you
Good afternoon all you wonderful deal seekers!
Mine doesn't stay around long enough to get to know it... More like passing acquaintances
Bruce, do you know if we need to add after the magic deal button is pressed, or just have it in our cart and finger on "checkout"?
Keep finger on refresh and checkout
Beats me π
Danke Susan!
Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen!
refresh would be a good thing to make from a giant button
add to cart
refresh, and take my money buttons
Good afternoon.

Adafruit I2C QT Rotary Encoder
https://www.adafruit.com/product/4991
Rotary encoders are soooo much fun! Twist em this way, then twist them that way. Unlike potentiometers, they go all the way around, and often have little detents for tactile feedback. But, ...
sadly the US and China tariffs what also one of the issues
could that holder just be 3D printed and you just solder to the board? or do you need it to bring the pins out?

3d audio the proof that no audio issues today
I just realized I won't have my AdaBox18 in time for the unboxing tonight... phooey
It's ok @teal river it is just fun to watch JP's unboxings!
YouTube is telling me that the unboxing starts at 11:00pm Eastern rather than 8:00pm. Is that right?
Wait what?
youtube says show&tell at 4:30 pacific, and Unboxing at 8pm pacific...Seems like unboxing is later than expected?
Maybe he said 8PM and didn't specify timezone, and I assumed Eastern time...

Well, that says S&T 7:30PM ET and Ask an Engineer 8PM ET, so I guess unboxing during that? but that would be 4:30PM PT and 5PM PT, so... Maybe YouTube is half wrong?
maybe they've changed it for the unboxing?
cause they said Ask an Engineer would be taken over for the unboxing
maybe
Ask and Engineer is usually right after Show & Tell... sooo maybe something timey wimey happened when JP took over (since his on west coast with me) I would start watching at 4:30 pacific for sure
I could have sworn he said 8PM ET
It will be at 8pm Eastern time today. Sorry for the confusion, I set the wrong time for the YT stream! Fixed now. Thanks @inner spade and others for alerting me.

@gusty wedge Which LoRa module is onboard?
I really need to try this sometime. That's so cool @gusty wedge . I've only received via SDR before
awesome @gusty wedge
So yeah, you only need an esp32 + lora. I do hope we can have an esp32s2 working, and running circuitpython, so we can have the
sats, talk to the
ground stations
...have you seen any satellites with OOK?
These are sx127x LoRa.
That's more for SatNOGS, which we also have a groundstation. The main difference, is that LoRa does travel quite a lot, even with small antennas, so the coverage is just ridiculous. I normally get packets from sats that are on top of Peru π

I do have an optical compressor pedal, but I already had two things to show. Nice tone on yours btw.
sweet!

hi @ionic garnet and welcome
I had my old line6 pedal board blew up on me, so now I'm forced to build a bunch of pedals or have stock tone π¦
I'm most excited about the IO+ year! 
Too fuuny, I'm a guitar player too
Unboxing! Woohoo!!
That was my favorite part too, I had almost actually bought it two days before I got my box, but got busy
:). Maybe there is a way to make this pedal by playing with focus on a lens..
No mask in this AdaBox
Someone used optical compressor on JP.
I always love the artsy board markings, always wished I could do that in industry.
I've been very impressed with this new greenscreen method π

that dorothy name tag
Just realized this is my 12th ADABOX
And I do like the color tint. Having tinted some photographs this weekend, I'll say it's legit.
JP rocks!
π
I just checked again and... my AdaBox did not come with a tiny @haughty quiver. Is my box missing a part?
YouTube didn't start yet?
look under the tissue paper, he's resting there
youtube is live
Yeah, mine too
bubble wrap for free to have fun popping!
Yeah! I popped them all π
π
LOL Dorothy
I'm on youtube
Yes!
Scarecrow!
Dorothy Park
That looks lovely enough to just put on a museum shelve.
What pink floyd album syncs with this stream?
π¦
omg all the different workshirts... so good
π
LOL
It's right there on my desk!
I'm always so surprised at how small these boards are in real life
Never mind the Lars behind the curtain....
jealous
lars is the wizard
made it, hello everybody!
Hello
And the slippers are updated for 2021 to a stunning black onyx π
I just realized the cover is still on my standoffs, didn't even notice it
Oh the appeal!
My Secrets.py file for IO keeps telling me that my SSID is not defined. What am I doing wrong?
Name Error
I apologize if this is a "noob" question
coolest idea would be a virtualpet/tamagotchi type thing... would look like they are in their own little house!
You should include your wifi stuff in the file. Kinda like this.
@west wagon yah, that's one of the things we think folks will do with it ... could also use adafruit.io to "feed" it
secrets = {
'ssid' : 'mywifi',
'aio_username' : 'fede2',
'aio_key' : 'aio_123'
}
Have you changed it? More details are at https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-funhouse/circuitpython-internet-test
has to be a 2.4 gig network or it won't find it. try doing a scan all networks to make sure it shows up
I did, but it tells me that my SSID eg: 123 is not defined
sounds like a typo (maybe a missing comma?) in your secrets.py
Put it in quotes
I forgot a line for the wifi password, something like 'password' : 'wifipass',
It's in ' 123 ' format. Should it be in "123" format??
either single or double quotes should be fine
π¦
OK. I'll check it for typos
πΎ
meow
there's an example secrets.py file here:
https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-funhouse/circuitpython-internet-test
I have a bunch of pre-wired surplus JST cables with the wrong colored wires so I colored the JST jacks on my Funhouse to remind me what the real pinouts are
@haughty quiver brilliant use of work shirts and name tags
oii @cinder wind you can reshuffle the pins with careful tweezering
Yellow brick- I get it now
I suspect I missed some of the costumes while looking at stuff, will have to rewatch after the show
totally! but I have a lot of these darn cables π I have started shuffling them for those destined for Fun
YAY JP
So fun - Thanks
excellent!!
Thanks @haughty quiver. Just what I needed to come home to after a long day!
LOL, he should have used the ruby slippers to get home
Great job @haughty quiver
Great Job JP !!! π
Not only a great teacher, hacker and artist, but wow, what a great entertainer @haughty quiver is.
As usual, a fine job by JP.
Yes! Lars!
JP Gingham style
I'm enjoying it so much.
amazing as always @haughty quiver π
no mask, but we do send out flying monkeys to vaccinate subscribers
(I liked the masks... But my 100 pk of n95s showed up yesterday)
LOL, ,toto!
we could use some more flying monkeys in Canada to help speed things up
I'll take a flying monkey.
If we only had an army of flying monkeys for vaccination.....if only....
flying robots
I half expected to actually see a little pic of jp in the boot firmware
@haughty quiver Absolute Amazing Genuis choreograph with the green screen, unboxing and character changing. Genuis!!

Me too @drifting wyvern
I'm hoping to use the PIR to see if someone is walking to my house and hoping driving cars or people walking down the street don't set it off
Oh no, Lars ate everything in the picnic basket!
Did Lars get his COVID vaccine?
Is there a reason why there's two rows in the pir connector,
@mark pir only notices warm bodies mostly
(and who is Lars?)
is the mini PIR sensor open-collector so we could hook up multiple to the Funhouse PIR jack?
@drifting wyvern maybe mount one in front and back..I'm guessing
Ty!
It puts the Lars in the basket
Lars is the... uh.. well... heβs playing Toto today π
sudo toto
π¦·
sudo make me a sandwich
I think I'm going to have to display all these cover sheets in my office, it's an art display by now
Kansas/Los Angeles π€£
Also I had totally not noticed the feet under the doorstep on the silkscreen until just now
Los Kansales
oh wow same
ha same
the board also has three capacitive touch pads and one capacitive touch slider with 5 elements
guess where π
took me a while to get the timing right
Also Toto on the back has a test point
Y'all must've had a sincerely fun time designing this board π
(or alignment fiducial?) In any case it's super cute
I'll try to upgrade the uf2 of my pyportal. I don't think I get a uf2 screen.
you could attach it to a pi!
the buzzer makes such a great "buzzer" sound
π¨ π²
I was briefly surprised by the goth-ness in the streams but now it's in hand, it's super charming
everything is better goth
And the fonts even rainbow-cycle. What a cool board+demo
goffz r kute
I was expecting it to be carnival fun house themed when it was green, so just a temporary mismatch. Really nice as usual, really detailed
nice stand
Very nice bricky stand by N&P.
I'm gonna fire up my printer and do that stand right now!
I thought about using the water sensor outside to tell when its light rain/misting possibly
The bootloader screen is a really nice touch
cat detector? π±
Where is the Wizard? Hehe
@nova totem it would work for rain/mist
ohmygosh, JP is in color now, not sepia-tone. he must be in Oz now!
Excited to make a smart bird house π
@charred mason https://learn.adafruit.com/pet-bowl-water-level-sensing-with-the-funhouse-and-home-assistant
Re-box it, and unboxit again β€οΈ
it would be cool to have the cat step on the cat paw button to activate an alarm
Thank you JP and Adafruit
Thanks @haughty quiver & @open girder & Digi-Key!
Awesome, detecting "small" amounts of rain is difficult
@open girder Thank you for yet another excellent Adabox! Thanks @haughty quiver for hosting the Adabox unboxing -- remember to click your heels three times. There's no place like 127.0.0.1
nice
Thanks, Dorothy!
wooo!!!
Great job @haughty quiver
Thank you JP great production, so satisfied.
ππππ
Thanks, that was Fun(house), JP!
thanks everyone!
Great job

we hope you like this box
FUn Fun FUn!
π π―
Thanks @haughty quiver @open girder
@haughty quiver Outstanding JP, Amazing!!!!
no place like ohm! Thanks!
Thank you. good stuff!
Thanks Adafruit and all, fun as usual! Excited to have another ESP32-S2... I almost used my matrix portal board on its own for sensor stuff
we put LOTS of sensors in it π
thank you @haughty quiver !!
Funhouse is my favorite ESP32-S2 board now
Thank you. Was worth the wait
I might actually transfer my air quality stuff to the fun house from the clue, so it can phone home as well as display
we're going to try to open some slots for the next box, we have so many folks who love adabox!
@open girder @proper trench Amazing, Just Amazing. Thank YOU!!
I might need to buy another scd sensor... π
thanks @sage aspen
@haughty quiver does it again! Was humming a couple of songs as the scenes changed.
JP puts a lot of work into these unboxings.
Intrigued by the dp310 sensor, will have to see how it compares to my bmp280s. Never heard of it somehow
Might have to watch the movie again. Hope my neighbors don't mind me singing along at top volume.
Thanks, JP. You never fail to entertain.
Ooh, or a headache warning when pressure starts changing too fast... Then I just need to figure out how to make an alarm that doesn't make a headache worse π€¦
@drifting wyvern Strobing lights?
Probably not π
Thank you @noble grove !
Is the slider 13 supposed to be at the bottom?
I just love the cap touch slider
I suspect my cheap power bank might be a little noisy and interfering
so good
@solemn spear thanks so much :)
@haughty quiver Again JP, Just A M A Z I N G. and great work with the green screen action. Very Cool!!
@haughty quiver great work!!
Thank you kindly @woeful pond !
Rewatching now π
@drifting wyvern How about having a Klaxon going constantly and if the air pressure changes suddenly it turns OFF?
@haughty quiver You have to give up some of your secrets with your green screen, especially when you walked up and replaced yourself.
He has a twin.
@woeful pond right on! Maybe I can do a behind the scenes.
@haughty quiver That would be fantastic.
OK, tune in tomorrow for my Workshop livestream at 4pm Eastern / 1pm Pacific @woeful pond (or catch the replay) and I'll show some of the making-of.
@haughty quiver I'll be there.
oh nifty, another portalbase-based board.
The secret is that @haughty quiver is really the wizard
Heck yes! I just rewatched it for research a couple weeks ago, so great.
Pay no attention to the man behind the green curtain.
it was really easy to get my magtag grabbing some local data from an API, and it's been happily living on my fridge for months now with just the intermittent circuitpython upgrade. This will be a lot of fun, thanks!
(if anybody knows the trick to getting cap sense slider 13 working, let me know...)
nvm works fine in the circuitpy example, just had trouble in the shipping fw)
@gusty wedge

(At least I think it was you who said we should add the stickers to Discord.)

yes
how cute!
Hard to decide, I am between
and
....π€
I select.... all of the above? That's a choice, right?

Let me know if you have any questions for my Workshop livestream about the "making of" the Unboxing video and livestream. @woeful pond asked about some of the compositing and greenscreening for the "two of me" shots, so I'll show that and more.
I just now got around to getting into it. It's so good!
Having a good time with it. I got a little stumped at a certain part of the learn guide: connecting to Home Assistant with MQTT : since I have very little experience with MQTT and it was my first install of Home Assistant.
My question is, how soon after I setup my FunHouse does @haughty quiver start showing up with random Adafruit goodies?
LOL lead times can vary but typically within 3-5 hours.
Next weekβs episode of your workshop staring random Adafruit customers who had no idea they would be on the show
Unfortunately, like so many magical things there is a catch -- the John Park that shows up is invisible as are the free goodies.
And the goodies smell vaguely of marzipan so you know they exist but can't quite locate them.
I don't make the rules.
(The invisible John Park doesn't smell of marzipan, yet he is made of marzipan. It is curious.)
Probably Lars ideal
Once COVID finally dies down we need a John Parkβs Electronics tour of awesome
Where he tours the country and hits up various maker businesses and does cool shows
@haughty quiver Questions for the 'Making of the Unboxing: Secrets of JP's Workshop': What's your process for planning a produced event like this? Do you storyboard the flow of your scenes?
And a few follow up questions to that...
(recognizing that repeat experience doing these productions helps) Are there things you've tried and realized "I've bitten off more than I can chew" -- an idea that's technically too complex or too long/tedious to edit?
When do you recognize diminishing returns and pivot to an alternative, versus sticking with it?
These are excellent questions, thanks.
Alert -- 38 minutes before JP's workshop! Which is also the length of time a Stargate can maintain an active wormhole! (coincidence? I think not.)

Yes! How do you add motion to the green screen?, How do you switch the backgrounds on the green screen? I manage to get two of the examples to work on the dazzler. I'm assuming additional librarys for the dazzler. for ex. I did not see the math lib .
also how do you get the video through a webex? or zoom. I just see the rainbow bars from the dazzler.
I guess this leads to how to naviage through the dazzler if you have time, if not maybe another show.
Greetings all. π
Good afternoon all you wonderful folks π
Chevron One: encoded.
bleeps and bloops are live
YT is alive!
Hewwo!
πΊ
Its about to go downnnn
how can JP be alive, yesterday we discovered he's just a tin man
YT is alive, but has it gained sentience yet? -checks the algorithm for suggested videos- it's close...
"alive"
lol theres that green screen
N
N'york!
I'm watching the behind the scenes before watching the unboxing, lol. Just got my AdaBox18!
mic audio is great; in sync and peaking at -6db
Find maker jobs in 3D and CAD, Art, Design, Education, Embedded Development, Engineering, Fabrication, Marketing and Communications, and Web Development
I have a purple screen
I'm starting to think JP enjoys his work far too much to call it work. π
Lol
Good Evening peeps
If only California wasn't across the country DX
Good evening @clever summit
Hi Andy!



Is that the pause button?
Hi HO JP. Hope you're doing well.

I ordered 2 of the Trinkey! but I need keys DX
@haughty quiver Muted!
No audio!
No audio
no audio DX
JP in the house, loved your ADABOX presentation last night!
π
Lol
"actually 'parsec' is a unit of distance" pushes up glasses Han Solo was totally wrong
That's the joke.
haha yeah I know I'm being a jerk
@cinder wind I find your lack of faith disturbing... π
i still vote for "Circuit Pysec".
Wait! Wait! Spoilers! π
I should have known this would be spoilers XD
Whoa, that was a weird effect around your head
Lars - detected.
Ohh, fancy... I just have random purple fabric
saves for later
Love that project, still want to try it!
and you can change from green to blue by just changing the neopixels! that is so cool
How do you get the color for the chroma-key on the background?
Oh, I hadn't heard the term Disney Bounding, but I had heard of Bounding Cosplay -- the same idea of theming yourself to give the impression of a character without being an actual cosplay
The shirts were spot on.
wow very creative. a lot of thought went into that.
Excellent answer. Thanks!
Question: About how long does it take to film a 20 minute produced segment like this? And about how long to edit it in post?
Funhouse would make a cool ID badge.
and Lars doesn't help at all
What's the point of him? Lars, I mean. π€
I hope he's faster than me, a 20 minute video takes me like 4 hours XD
And DaVinci resolve has a free tier too π
Resolve is a sweet suite.
@waxen thistle Have you resolved to use it?
I like HitFilm Express
I know you're making a funny....but seriously, yepper π
Whoa, that background artifacting... super cool
@waxen thistle π
Professional video editing, color correction, visual effects and audio post production all in a single application. Free and paid versions for Mac, Windows and Linux.
I sync my cameras and audio by making a unique, strange sound for each clip XD
Usually some sort of pterodactyl like sound...
Wow, interesting
In sink? That where you wash your hands...
Clean hands help keep you from having dirty cuts!

"moil man. moil man."
High fiber film grain
so many questions, such little time
Practice makes perfect, or at the very least, fast!
Sometimes I do a dozen takes for a line and chop them all up anyway XD
Nothing more fun than taking over an hour of footage and cutting it down to like 5 minutes :P
And davinci resolve is highly respected among videographers. You'll find books, workshops, and tons of youtube videos on it. A plethora π
I tried Resolve... but I felt like I was constrained because it didn't seem to have any way to spread controls across displays
If you do a lot of video, nab a color balance card. popular ones can be automatically selected in davinci or premiere
Hi all, bit late.
saves a lot of manual effort π
A plate being used is certainly helpful! I haven't run into file name issue
Need to actually use my clap board...
You missed the cookies!
I'll have to re-watch...
I like OBS for broadcasting, but it works for recording too
Yup, OBS is Open Broadcast Software
OBS is a sweet tool, and it's free
If you want just one background, Zoom also has background support, and you don't need a greenscreen. It's ok
yissss 
Pay no attention to the Lars behind the curtain....
lol
Lol
Maybe he likes the basket.
Imagine if there was just a bunch of layers of screens that moved around at random and revealed or hid certain things in the background
β€οΈ it all ..
just awesome
Great workshop, @haughty quiver π
Ohh, so your screens aren't actually a specific color? just based on the light
Thanks John!
Thanks @haughty quiver for giving us this behind-the-scenes --- it's awesome to learn the workflow and processes folks use to make awesome things π
Ohhhh.... I thought that was different fabric, hadn't read that XD
Oh wow! That's so much better than regular greenscreen!
It's amazing that they're working from -- what is that, 8-10 feet for the back one?
That's super cool!
Thanks, @haughty quiver π
share links ... I will buy immediately
thank you!
clap clap clap clap
Thank you!
You could make outfits out of that material and have "clones" of yourself with different color outfits, but not have to actually change!
@haughty quiver Very Impressive. Great show as usual and great information! Thank you.
bai!
π
@woeful pond thanks so much for asking about it!
I like this badoop music
where would "help with funhouse" questions go here in discord? if here .... i'm having trouble with my adabox018 funhouse seeming to not see anyhing but "10" on the capacitive slider... trying to figure out if i'm touching it wrong.
but, oof, meant to throw that in "#general-tech"
oop
Now I have to play with and figure out Premiere.
@glossy void #help-with-projects would be a good place to start π
