Exporting advanced output for fixed installation

So.. I have to declare defeat on this one.

Ive been using Arena live with much joy. Now I wanna use it for a fixed video mapped installation. I dont want to have my computer standing around, but instead having some sort of media player wired with the beamer.

Is there a way to export the advanced output transformation so that I could just put the file on a USB and the proportions within the frame would still fit onto the objects i mapped it onto?

Ive done some recordings with syphon, but im not really satisfied with the rec since its messing up the proportions when I project it again outside of resolume....

I hope the questions makes sense :) and I would be super gratefull for some help!!

Bests,
Adrenaline

thanks!
but i read that already, and unfortunately its nor really fixing my problem.

I have a beamer linked with my laptop, and I do the mapping precisely onto a physical object. Which means the picture is extremely dependent on the angle from the beamer.

When I record my output with OBS its good quality and everything, but when i open the FLV file outside of Arena its not matching on the object as it was before in resolume. The image is slightly smaller and not warped to fit the object. It appears more "flat" somehow.

It might have something to do me exporting from OBS to the beamer or?

bests,

I think you just need to make sure your settings for the recording in OBS are exactly the same as the Arena output.

Also don't use .flv but .mov instead if you can.

If it all works fine, you should be able to play the file back using resolume in full screen rather than advanced output and have the exact same mapping.
