Re: Freestyler is really buggy

This might be related to bug #1648 - certain channels on certain fixtures get stored with the wrong values when saving a sequence. It's such a regression that I've been unable to use 4.1.1 at all and was forced to roll back to 3.6.51 (the last version I had available).

If you imported the old file you might need to edit the sequence and re-save to fix the problem in otherwise you've just imported the problem back

Hi, I did, I loaded the sequence, reset the strobo values and ovewrote the sequence, loaded it back, the strobo still.
SOme sequences may save the strobe to zero, some others can't, and there is "snap" selected (to zero). I suppose there is a probelm with Freestyler.
If I try the version3, can I import there the backup too? Is compatible?

You never replied me, have you noticed the same problems with you installation?

I wanted to roll back to 3.6.51 but with this version I can't see any fixture bakc, probably they are not compatible.
I'm won't rebuild everything, so I really hope this bug can be solved, or there is a backup-compatible 4.x version that may work.. thank you

Hi mate, have you fixed it in 4.1.2?
If you are interested on a Anydesk connecto to that PC, you can figure yourself the problem.
The problema appears each time I load a sequence, but not with all sequences, jus some with more than one scene.
I hope you can fix it soon, thanks
