  • Hi everyone,

    I reported what seems like a major bug a few weeks ago, and just wanted to mention it on here too in case anyone has experience anything similar.

    I have a simple preset (dimmer and colour values for LED Pars), and this preset is used in a number of cues. When I select ‘Edit in programmer’ for the preset, then change the colour values and ‘Update’ the preset, the next time I go to play the cuelist the cues won’t play and a series of error reports appear in the kernel output. I’m also unable to save the project after this.

    Has anybody else experienced anything like this before? It's frustrating because I'm trying to program a light show in advance using a visualiser and I want to be able to adjust colours and brightness levels across all of the cues when I'm at the event by just adjusting presets.

    Here's a link to my bug report: https://bugs.dmxcontrol-projects.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=4849

    Any help much appreciated!

    Phil

  • Hi, I answered on your ticket. As I said there, please attach your project file (at least a reduced one) so we can reproduce this problem with it.
