Strange behaviour between "where" and "only visible in IB" inlets

Hello,

My goal is to provide a way to show only one IP-video at a time in the IB, while all the IP-video are always visible in the control panel.

There are 4 cameras in all (but the number does not matter).

I tried to use a dispatch module, which is a good solution I think.

In order to "debug" the patch, I tested with buttons and switches instead of IP-video modules.

Here is my patch (attached with the message):
- Select an item from the list "1;2;3;4"
- Observe the control panel. The corresponding knob will be shown while the others will be hidden. This is exactly the bahaviour I'm looking for but I want it to work in the IB.
- Do the same thing but observe the buttons or the IP-video in the IB. It does not work even if "where" and "only visible in IB" are both list inlets.

I really don't understand why. I could think of a bug but I rather bet it is something I am missing.

Thanks for your help,

creal.

Looks it's a refresh issue, if you switch back to control panel, then IB again, your button is correctly visible.
A suggestion is to use opacity inlet in place of where.
Select a video to show in IB 2.pat

Hello Nay-Seven,

Thanks for your message.

Concerning the opacity, it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I would like to keep all the videos visible in the control panel but show only one in the IB at the same time. Unfortunately, the opacity hides the video in the IB as well as the control panel. An inlet called "opacity in the IB" would solve the problem.

So if you think the "also show in IB" implied a bug in this precise situation, I can report it to the Brainmodular team. Maybe a third person could test the behaviour before sending the report?

Thanks,

creal.

Hello Creal

It's a refresh issue of the IB, I speak to Senso about that.
It will probably be resolved soon.
