MAPPING

see video tutorial: https://www.pocketvj.com/pocketvj-exhibition

Note

  • If you want to map with a mouse, connect a cabled USB mouse before booting.

  • “Autostart” into “Mapper” with an USB mouse connected to get everything working.

  • If you use an IR mouse, you need to use an IR Keyboard to control the mapper, CP will not work.

  • Keyboard keys: 1,2,3,4,a,v,b,m,n,l,k,5,7,8,9,0

  • Use a Video resolution of 1280 x 720 and a video containing an audiotrack (even silent).

  • If the mapped video stutters, decrease the bitrate (see section: Content Creation) and resolution or wait until it played a few times.

  • If its hard to mape due to lags, simple hit the pause button in CP to get more ressources for precise mapping.

  • There is an “Advanced Mapping Tricks” section in this manual

Note

After selecting receiver, you need to reload the mapper, this can be simply done with reopening your preset.

Resolution must be 1280 x 720 and there should be only one video file in Mapper.

We figured out that the slaves might need a reboot after approx. 15h playback.
