Can't enable Syphon in Arena 5, Mac OS

Post by gpvillamil »

I can't seem to enable Syphon!

I'm on Arena 5.1.2, Mac OS 10.116 (El Capitan) on a MacBook Pro with Retina display.

I can see the Syphon source by itself, but dragging it into the clip grid does nothing.

I don't see anything related to Syphon in the preferences.

Anything else I can be doing?

From your brief description, it sounds like you are trying to select the [Syphon] category rather than a stream.

In order to use Syphon in Resolume, you need to have at least one open stream.

Take a look at this video:

Thank you, nailed it. My Syphon source was not correctly configured so it wasn't showing up. Working now!
