Hello :) I am using openmoco for my project, which deals with live action recording.. So seeing that this software could handle keyframes and other stuff sounded good to me.
Now, I've put together a prototype rig which controls three motors.. But I cant seem to get the openmoco software to move two motors (or more) simultaniously.. Is this possible? (I am using a gui I wrote myself btw, if its relevant).
I hope it is possible :P I dont want to do that much more programming work on the arduino.

Kristinn, The async motor
Kristinn,
The async motor control is currently under development. But it is working for continuous-motion type mode in the dev branch located here: http://openmoco.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openmoco/OpenMocoComponents/TimeLapseEngine/branches/async-motor/
There are more than likely a few bugs in that version, but it might get you started out there. I expect to get back on soon, and get it fully supported in the prod version (any help would be greatly appreciated, of course =).
We'd love to see your gui, if you'd like to share it with us!
Thanks,
Chris

Sourceforge had a compromise last week, and the web access to our svn repo still appears to be down. However, svn client usage should work properly - so if you install svn on your machine, you can check out the code directly w/o downloading it from the web.
Here is their current update: http://sourceforge.net/blog/2011/02/ that very last part is what's causing you problems right now.
This link gives you the command to use with the svn client to download the code: http://sourceforge.net/projects/openmoco/develop
