Hi everyone - 
I searched the forum and someone had written a script or an app that allowed you to output a Qlab surface to Syphon.
The link is dead now. 
Has anyone an idea how to implement this?
We need to bus a screen from one Mac running qlab to another that is the main show.
As we have two operators.
One running subtitles and another running video and sound.

I can get a Syphon input from the 1st mac when we run Modul8 to TCPSyphon server but Qlab doesn't show up in the server list...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, J :)

Christ - sorry good folk.
I REALLY need to stop jumping the gun and crying wolf.
Got it working.
Just created a new empty surface on the Server Mac in Qlab. Add a new screen and select Syphon.
Then it appears as a server in TCPSyphon.
Then on the main Mac Qlab added a Syphon input in Video prefs.
Ran the cue and it totally works.

I will close the door shamefully as I leave.
J

No shame. Good bet that someone on the list (like me) learns something each time, and will be spared the need to cry wolf when we hit that particular wall!
