OCS support with PsychoPy?

[John Allen]

Hi,

I want to use a MUSE EEG headband in conjunction with a PsychoPy experiment and have PsychoPy send events to the MUSE system. Muse uses the Open Sound Control (OCS) protocol.

There seem to be a few python OCS support libraries around and I was wondering whether anyone has had any success (or problems) using any of them with standalone PsychoPy and also whether they have any tips for installing it into PsychoPy (apart from what's written here http://www.psychopy.org/recipes/addCustomModules.html )

Many thanks,

John

I haven't tried with PsychoPy yet, but I've been having a fair amount of success with a Python2 variant of the Python3 python-osc module under Linux and Mac OSX. The Python3 official version info is at:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-osc

I had to tweak the Python2 version and have my tweaked version out on GitHub at:

https://github.com/kjcole/python2-osc

Disclaimer: It works for me... ;-)

P.S. It's OSC not OCS.

Thanks for the quick and helpful reply Kevin (and also for pointing out my typo  )

Yes Open Sound Control - OSC ! - I can't see that I can correct it though :$ 

I'll take a look at your tweaked Python2 version

cheers,
John
