Which devices and protocols are most important to your work?

Discussions
1

We’re a small company developing Vuo from the ground up. We want to get Vuo into your hands as soon as possible, but each device and protocol will require a significant amount of development time to get working.

We'd like you, the Vuo community, to decide which devices and protocols Vuo will work with first —

  • Please Vote on the top 5 devices/protocols that you would like to see Vuo work with first.
  • After you vote, you'll be able to see the current voting results.
  • We will incorporate as many devices and protocols as possible into the Vuo public beta.
  • After the first release, we will continue to implement the devices and protocols that the Vuo community prioritizes.

Thanks for helping bring Vuo to fruition.

difficult to say what is more important… like to work with picture and video.Syphon is a good tool too…

4

Hard choices…

5

If QC integration is fulfilled lots of the other choices can be achieved easily!

6

Can’t see how you can ship a multimedia authoring environment without image and video file support – core feature, not a device or protocol! – so I’ve used my votes elsewhere.

7

Also I’d like a fully operational Tablet node. The tablet patch in QC is buggy, output co-ords can go into jitter causing buttons to flicker if you click on the edge of them. I reported a bug but cwight said it was difficult to fix because of dependancies elsewhere. Bonus points for knowing if the stylus is up=side down in erase more which the Apple patch doesn’t ;-)

good point toby. syphon got my vote but i could perhaps consider it a fait a-compile ;-)

Thanks, everyone, for your feedback.

@tobyspark and @useful_design — Of course, every feature takes significant time to implement. We’d love to eventually support all of the above features; our intent for this poll is to prioritize them. (We can’t implement everything listed here before releasing the first beta, since that would delay its release by a few years, which would be pretty uncool.)
