Omino Gobo
Omino Gobo is a tool for laying out "spotlights" and photographs on an
external video display. This could be useful in a performance
setting, using a video projector as a light source and provider
of other visual content.
Beta Install
On your iPhone running IOS 7 (or iPad...)
After you've emailed me your device's udid number...
Click into this archive directory, and download
the latest one by date.
Double click the .ipa download...
(You can do this from the top-right download menu in safari, or the downloads folder.
This will put it into iTunes
iTunes may ask if you want to replace an older version, "Yes".
In iTunes choose to install the app to your iPhone or iPad
If you have a version already, you need to Remove, sync, Install, sync.
If any of this doesn't work, or if you end up with a dull gray app icon instead of
a bright white one, let me know. Getting it just right involves some manual steps.
Testing
At this point, mostly interested in first impressions and thoughts. And if it
doesn't crash your phone.
In progress:
Does not save your scenes for very long... when you relaunch app they'll probably be gone.
+Movie to add a video sort-of works, but may have to remove it for Version 1.
The "Special" page is testing stuff mostly, feel free to play around.
The "Speical" page shows the version and build number, for reporting.
usage notes
The point of Omino Gobo is to project spotlights from a video projector. The iPhone is
just the editing view. To use a video projector, OG needs either AirPlay to an AppleTV, or
an iPhone video adapter. I like the HDMI adapter for HD resolution, but you can use the
regular A/V (NTSC resolution) adapter as well.
For AirPlay, swipe UP from the screen bottom twice to get the Control Center view.
The two main panels are elements and scenes, selectable with the buttons
at the bottom of the display.
