I need help understand how to get this working. right now it has power from a stirling engine, sitting at 4800 / 4800 MJ but will not work. I see some redstone and configuration stuff on the right side? How the hell do I get this thing work?
Making a Induction smelter work,

I'm assuming you don't have sand in the left-most slot. It requires sand as a catalyst, one per ore or one per two dust. It is NOT needed if you're smelting obsidian and lead dust together for reinforced glass.
Nope. got sand in the left slot. Lemme get you a picture of what's going on.
Here's the layout. It's simple and does the job as far as I know.
Here's the smelter itself. This has me utterly boggled.
I'm at a loss of why it isn't starting up.

What ore is that, cinnabar? Looks like it as I think I see Quicksilver in your hotbar, which makes this more likely. Cinnabar (I hope i'm getting the name right) is probably not an ore Thermal Expansion has been designed to recognize (yet), especially considering Thaumcraft 3 is a very new mod at this time. And considering no other mod I know of uses Cinnabar so far.
If that's not the problem, check the redstone tab and see what it's set to. If it turns off from having a "high" signal, check if there are any levers on a block next to it. (I seem to see an IC2 machine.) If it's set to a "low" signal, then the lack of lever is a problem. It's probably best to just set the redstone control to off.
On a different note, your power looks a little funky. Is that a Wooden Conductive Pipe on your smelter and Gold Conductive Pipe on your engine? I'm not really sure HOW it has power when the wooden pipe isn't on the engine to pull the power out of it in the first place.

Sorry, the texture pack is confusing me a bit. That white circle thing looked like Thaumcraft 3's Quicksilver. I made an edit to my previous post. The problem may be a lever on an adjacent block.
No, that's not the problem. The sand and ore can go into either slot. I just tested this to make absolute certain. (Not to mention I've always used it with the sand on the left...)
Maybe remove the wooden pipe that is against the machine, it could be confusing things and is also completely unnecessary with TE they will auto output in any case and you do not need a wooden pipe on the machine end of the power input. Also how do you have it configured in the green tab from the look of it you have all the "ports" disabled, on the power input side try with any color, another thing possibly try toggling the redstone behaviour I have had to update that to get them to run before.
If I see the picture right, You need the wooden conductive pipe on top of the engine and not on the side of the Induction Furnace.
That's not the problem either as one of the screenshots show power in the machine. I'm not sure how he got power in the machine that way, but that doesn't explain why it isn't smelting.
Unfortunately it is a problem in a number of cases. Try macerating lead for example. The ore dictionary has helped a lot, but it's still far from a perfect world

Well, I don't think all ores are supported, but at least all oreCoppers are smelteable in the Induction Furnace.
Another wrong answer. The Induction Furnace smelts one ore at a time and outputs two ingots from it, the same yield as a Macerator + Furnace. It's the dust that it has to smelt two at a time.
