Mind Monitor OSC display on Windows

Hello James,

I am reaching out to you regarding Mind Monitor OSC display on Windows (through the guide: https://github.com/Enigma644/MindMonito ... eedback.py)

I am new to python and muse devices. My aim is to display Mind Monitor graphs on a Windows computer.

I ran the python file- OSC Receiver Audio Feedback and generated the graphs in Figure 1. However, there is a delay of approximately 6-7 minutes for the graphs to appear in Figure 1.

I further tested using Muselab - once connected, data/graphs are generated with little delay (approximately 1 second). But the interface is not appropriate for me.

I suspect that I did not execute your codes correctly or I am not using the correct python version which is causing the delays.

I am asking if there are any changes/optimization which will capture and display Mind Monitor readings within approx. 1 second.

Thank you for helping.

A six minute delay is very strange. I've no idea what could cause that. It should be pretty instant. Python is an interpreted language, so it's not going to be anywhere near as fast as a compiled program made in something like C, but on any modern computer, you should have a graph showing live data from the last few tenths of a second, not minutes!

That aside, there are OSC libraries in pretty much every single programming language, so if you're not familiar with python, then I would recommend you code something up in the language that you are most familiar. There's also other program that can graph OSC data, like TouchDesigner, if you're not into coding.
