Strange Playback Problem

Post by scottparkin69 »

hi all
firstly i think :fs:
i'am still learning new stuff on it i currently use it for DJing and a band
i have a strange problem i've been trying to create a a chase that includes both led pars and my scanners which i have successfully done but my problem is it works fine when i play it back using the programing window but once i load it into the cue and run it from there one scanner never seems to light and its always the same one

i loaded it back into the editor to check and play it back and it works :?

i tried it with a empty clue list with just that cue,tried both installations of freestyler(i have 2 windows partitions one genaral and one just dj software and freestyler)
yet my other cue's i've made with all the scanners work fine

Any Ideas ??

Thanks in advance

It may not have saved it properly go back through the steps with the light selected and see if the postions etc change if they do not it hasnt saved properly try going through each step changing the values for that 1 light to what it should be then save it again if you catch my drift...

yeah i do

i tried that i also did the cue again from scratch and it was the same :? played back fine on the program window but misbehaved when ran on the cue window

i did notice though i ran it on offline mode mode once by mistake(left cue window open) so i thought i'de change the value manually i something didnt seem right with the channel assignments so i removed all the fixtures and reinserted them back in(in the same order and channels) it appears to have cured it as it was misbahing with any new cue i made that i played back in the cue window

will test it with the offending cue when i have rebuilt it and let you know how it goes

I Tried it again and it was still misbehaving only on playback in the fast cue switcher window

after several attempts of trying including reinstalling freestyler i remembered i changed my fixture file for my scimitars(barrel scanners) to stop tilt channel affecting rotation of the barrels so the could only be controlled by macros after I'd changed it back it worked straight away :?:

should i report this as a bug the channel in question is channel 2 and it has 4 channels so removing channel 2 shouldn't affect it should it if so why did it only effect it in the cue switcher and not the programming window or direct control of the fixture
