Interactive video using Touch Osc

Hello there

I am currently trying to find a solution for video projection using an ipad as the interface for stop start operations. This is for a museum context, and will run as a permanent installation. I’m wondering if it’s possible to build a very simple interface in touch osc, or something similar -three buttons, each button triggering the start of a different video file, which will then continue to loop until another button is triggered…

Many thanks

Hi and welcome @leben ;).
I’ve never used Touch OSC but performing a search, it seems you’re goal is very close to some composition & tutorial done by the Vuo team, so should work !

Composition : Composition: Video mixer controlled by Android/iOS
Transcript of the tutorial : Using TouchOSC to control a Vuo video mixer

You’ll need to make some changes, but same kind of thing. Start there, and ask for help if stuck ;).
PS : Just read in the tutorial it’s better if you create your own network for the devices, some restrictions maybe with public wifi, so just check that.
Hope this helps already,

Cheers
