Hi

In usine the term smpte is used to definite the position of the cursor in the sequencer.
It's probably not possible to use it to synchronize another machine or application.
I'm looking for a solution to drive a video (not read by usine) synchronised in usine.
do you think it's possible to generate an audio tc signal on read by the usine seq to send it to another program ?
Indeed, resolume (arena version) accept the smpte protocol.
the only solution i found to play sound and video together was to send a midi or osc signal at the begining of the sound.
The problem is when i stop the sound (or changing position) the video doesn't follow audio.

no bp, just create MTC sysex and send them to your other program.
but MTC sysex are tricky...

the problem is in resolume there is no midi tc but only audio smpte if i well understood

how can i create a mtc sysex as you say ?

I can't help you directly
You have to use the sysex editor.
and google search about MTC...

I don't know resolume, but, have you got the midi implementation specs in resolume? this is the first step needed if you want to create a sysex.

Next, you could need to learn about MTC and how is embedded inside a midi message.
In this wikipedia article you can get the very basic info:

I think the tricky part that senso is talking about is the fact that sysex midi don't have a drop-frame provisioning so it could easily desynchronize without warning.

thanks for your advices. i'll take a tour and the world wild web

In fact resolume receive only midi clock message (to syncronise bpm) that is no interset for me.
Resolume is too basic for me that the reason why i"d love to see video modules in usine
