Facility Control

Hi all, just read John Naylor's blog post about having a hyperdeck being controlled by DB. we've got 8 of them and it would be great to control them all remotely via IP in DB. How is this done? any limitations? I searched the forums here and was unable to find any mention of it, unless I don't know where to look. In that case please forgive my ignorance. Thanks in advance for any help!

Andrew, it would just be a matter of sending the ethernet commands that the HyperDeck uses from Dashboard. I haven't got Dashboard in front of me at the moment, so I can't tell you exactly how. But, to find the ethernet commands, just look in the HyperDeck manual. There's a whole section on it (you need the latest firmware update installed though). You can find the manual here: http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/detail?sid=3960&pid=27547&leg=false&os=win

Here's a comment on the same general topic that I posted on our LinkedIn Group

I'm planning to post the hyperdeck panel as an example app soon, but here are a few snippets that should point you in the right directions.

hyperdeck's interface say's it's "telnet" which isn't stricly true, it's actually much simpler "“ just TCP Sockets "“ no authentication needed, just send command strings.

For example, this is the code under the button in the demo app "“ it's a single function call on the rosstalk object:

rosstalk.sendMessage(ogscript.getPrivateString('hosts', 'BlackmagicDeck1.host'), parseInt(ogscript.getPrivateString('hosts', 'BlackmagicDeck1.port')), ' play: single clip: true');

a quicker & dirtier (and for our purposes clearer) way of coding this is to put literal values in for the ip address and port number:

rosstalk.sendMessage("192.168.1.220"³, 9993, ' play: single clip: true');

this causes DashBoard to open a TCP socket on port 9993 with the device at 192.168.1.220, and then send it " play: single clip: true" in the payload.

You'll need to either wait for me to post the demo app, or figure the rest out from BMD's documentation, but hopefully this is enough to get you started down the right path.

Hi all, maybe you are interested in software made by me "Wolsmotion".



What Wolsmotion-III it?

Wolsmotion-III is the name I gave to the application that I created to make an order to the device hyperdeck issued by Blackmagic Design.

How applications communicate with the device hyperdeck?

Applications can communicate over TCP / IP network using port 9993 following the standard protocol that has been issued by Blackmagic Design and then with a series of data manipulation applications can communicate to a predetermined destination.

The function of what can be done?

Almost all functions are carried out directly through hyperdeck can be done also through Wolsmotion-III applications. The app even has some additional functions that do not exist in hyperdeck.

Any additional functionality provided by wolsmotion?

1. Wolsmotion-III equipped with a countdown display a clip that is run

2. You can see clips stored in the table.

3. You can run randomly clip by double clicking on the clip shown in the table to be activated and displayed.

4. With Wolsmotion-III you can move the position of the slot you want to set.

5. Slidebar able to move the timecode position in realtime and more interactive.

6. Slidebar give timecode position displacement speed of the current clip.

7. Wolsmotion-III can provide the name of the data file audio & video to be recorded.

8. Wolsmotion-III have an interactive display in the status display hyperdeck.

9. With Wolsmotion-III you can instruct hyperdeck through the PC keyboard.

Are there other functions?

Yes, Wolsmotion-III still has some amazing functions, namely:

1. Wolsmotion-III can communicate with more than one device hyperdeck.

2. Wolsmotion-III can communicate up to 9 units hyperdeck.

3. All the basic information can be displayed in one screen.

4. Each section has its own settings.

5. Wolsmotion-III provide an interactive display for control of the device in particular.

6. Applications work parallel to hyperdeck connected with wolsmotion.

7. Wolsmotion-III have the ability to send commands in parallel using a master key.

8. Wolsmotion-III has 3 master keys.

9. Each master key is equipped with a play button, record and stop.

10. With this master key you can play the clips simultaneously.

11. With this master key you can stop the clips simultaneously.

12. With this master key you can record the audio and video simultaneously.

Note: The ability to master key dependent on your network media such as hubs / switches, cable length, and others. Based on the experience of the execution time difference is very small usually about 1 to 100ms.

What with my job Wolsmotion-III be easier?

All depend on you, but we do designing this application to facilitate your work and provide solutions that are not owned by the hyperdeck. I am sure, you will be very easy to get used to the use hyperdeck because the display is designed with a variety of ideas and input hyperdeck operators.

Who am I?

I was formerly a technical support of the national TV station in Indonesia. I have a service life of more than 8.5 years there. Armed with the ability to perform simple programming, I managed to make some version hyperdeck. And this version is the best version I publish to be distributed to you. Certainly not free, because I have spent a long time in the making of this application. I hope you can replace the time I spend with your pocket money.

Can I order hyperdeck application in accordance with my wishes?

Of course, you can order it to me. Send your wishes and funds to prepare for the manufacture of this via email, then I will respond to your wishes as soon as possible.

Can I order other applications that do not relate to hyperdeck?

Of course, I have some experience in the design of applications that are used for control, monitoring and data logging system. Please explain your wishes as much detail as possible, then I will respond to your wishes as soon as possible.
