Usage

Domeport Pro is designed for artists, producers, and broadcasters working with dome and planetarium configurations, including the Satosphere. It lets you visualise DomeMaster format immersive content in real time, whether pre-rendered or generated live in multimedia creation software.

Input sources

Domeport Pro supports a wide range of input sources:

  • Video playback: load standard image and video formats directly
  • NDI: receive live video streams over a local network
  • Spout (Windows): share textures in real time between applications
  • Syphon (macOS): share textures in real time between applications

NDI, Spout, and Syphon are only available in the standalone version. The web version supports file-based content only.

Projection formats

Select your projection format from the interface:

  • DomeMaster: circular fisheye projection for full-dome screens
  • Equirectangular: 360° panoramic format for dome or VR previewing

Playback controls

When a video file is loaded:

  • Play / Pause: start and stop playback
  • Scrubber: drag to jump to any position in the video

Camera controls

Navigate the 3D dome view with the built-in camera:

  • Walk mode: ground-level navigation: W A S D moves along the floor plane and the mouse to look around
  • Fly mode: free-fly navigation through the scene: use W A S D R and F to move and the mouse to look around
  • Aperture: set the dome coverage angle (180° for a full hemisphere, 210° for an extended dome)

Use cases

Connect to TouchDesigner, ossia score, Hydra, Isadora, or any NDI-compatible software to stream live content directly into Domeport Pro.
