configuration
=============

remember to rmmod ftdi_sio so dmx_usb gets to see the device

new plus crashed in nvidia_drv.o so it got switched to the secondary
box running only vidref with usb HD camera. everything else move to
host 'amp'.

i didn't set the cpu to 'performance' scaling because i didn't want
unusual overheating. ondemand has worked fine.

NetworkManager respawns, so i froze it with SIGSTOP and set my net
with ifconfig. The problem was that if NM stops seeing the other
machine on the link, it drops my own ip address which I'm using for
same-host service requests, so they all froze.

for audio, I only need the cable with 1/8" headphone to split 1/4" plugs

gnome keyboard shortcuts, i made the Pause key run

shows
=====

music player was fine

some points got lost over save/load. I think it was because they were
scaled to be at the same time or in backwards time order

some pools of dancers went in a different order than they did in
rehearsal



for next year
=============

edit a subterm and we make sure that its dependent curves are all
visible and expanded

clicking a song that's paused in post doesn't start it over

web page of things to put in the current song, including
sub-with-curve, premade subterm (chase, other effects) with various
curves

vidref should include its very last recording in the replays if you're
hovering (though not usually)

vidref should be able to replay any song that you hover on, even not
the one the music player is playing. Or maybe that was the point of
putting the hover replay in the CC window, so it could also work
during music playback

CC's expanders are pointless; they should just be frames

when music's not playing, maybe the time cursor should float with the
mouse and apply 1..5/marker keys at mouse. But it needs to be clear
during playback that this is not what's happening.

smoothing in chases.

in CC, one horiz drag should take a curve from its current level to 0,
which i do all the time. maybe use a modifier key.

get a usb keyboard with all its pgup/pgdon/ins/del keys in the right places

we happened to shine a light though some strips to make a fan-shaped
series of shadows. Looked cool. Can we do that more on purpose?
