it would be cool to have an LCD plugin showing some important info (pitch, gain, TCV on/off, loop lenght, etc.) I have absolute no idea if it's possible to read information from the VDJ screen, (I've only seen plugings for audio/video or external controllers), If someone has an Idea, please help me.

thank you in advance.

yes, I mean something like that, having the posibility to have a controller like DAC3, with an LCD showing pitch, BPMs, or whatever you want to put in it (might be interesting also for DMX, so you don't need to have that screen "disturbing" while you mix).

examples of LCD screens can be found on www.crystalfontz.com
I would like to use this LCD http://www.crystalfontz.com/products/12864b/index.html#CFAG12864BTMIV
or this http://www.crystalfontz.com/products/240128d/index.html#CFAG240128DFMIT
software to control this kind of devices can be found here http://www.lcdstudio.com/site20/home.php


hope you understand it now.

Is there anyway to write screen information to a text file or a code to adquire info from screen?

i waqs thinking abou tasing some broken lcd and use just the top third part of it. and hide it in my rack, make a special skin (1024/200) or so.
but the prices are quite good.
