An OSC Control Device receives messages from the network via the OSC protocol.

To configure an OSC control device, go to the Preferences panel panel [F11], in the Engine Preferences tab, select the Control Device section:

OSC02 OSC02

Add a new Control Device by clicking the Add button and choose the type of Video Output you want to use in the list. Click Apply changes to access the configuration settings.

A window, as shown below, will appear. Configure your OSC device according to your preferences:

OSC-Create OSC-Create

  • Receive : Checks if your device is an OSC receiver

  • Local Input : Configures the address and the port to listen to

  • Reuse Local Port : Check this option if you want to listen to the same OSC messages with a different application than Smode

  • Send : Checks if your device is an OSC sender

  • Remote Output : Configures the address of the remote

  • Broadcast : Checks this option if the remote has a Broadcast address (255.255.255.255)

You can then check the incoming datas from your device through the DevicesWorkspaceComponent Icon Devices Panel .

You can, for instance, use an Xbox 360 controller through this control device with a Pure Data patch that you can find on the Smode forum.
