Troubleshooting, Low bit depth/choppy Intensity and color fade

$

@skyk182 wrote:

Hello All,

I have been using M-PC on an Asus Q503U running Windows 10 version 1703 for the past couple of years, but I recently encountered a bug after updating to version 3.70.885.0. After the update I noticed that all intensity and color fades had become extremely choppy, almost as if the bit depth had been lowered. I attempted to change the bit depth from dynamic to 16 bit with no effect. I have since tried a combination of un/reinstalling, the latest software, reverting to older software, recovering my PC from a restore point and reinstalling windows all to avail. Has anyone else experienced something like this, or have any thoughts on what the culprit might be?

Hi!
I am trying to set up a fixture called chauvet Q-wash 575. It exists in the library but when i patch it I see there is no settings available. That means when I try to use de intensity or gobo or something like that there is no posibility.
Is there anything I can do?
Thank you very much

M-Series Manager doesn´t play music

I´m using the M-Series manager succesfully on 3 PC without any problems. And the only one on which i needed, it doesn´t work. It seems that there is a problem between the communication between m-pc and the manager. i added an action (start a song with vlc) and it works perfectly with "test action".
After that I want to start this action in M-PC. Cue with external Macro 1. And VLC doesn´t start the song. As I said, it works perfectly on 3 other computers....... It´s so frustrating because this has to run on saturday.

(I asked also in the facebook group..... the time is running :o. So sorry for double posting)

Cloning effecting fixtures that weren;t designated for cloning

@spread.n.thelight wrote:

Hello all,
So I added some new washes to the front house key lighting ( I am using v3.7). I cloned data from backline rgbw moving wash to the exact same kind of wash I am installing out front.
I did it like so: Copy> 11+13+15+16+17+18+20+22@ 527 thru 534> execute command. Data was cloned to those fixtures flawlessly.
The issue is that my front of house LED ceiling panels also were cloned over, colors and intensities, as well as the intensities from my backline spots and effect washes (not the washes I cloned from). The panels were originally cloned from the static RGB front wash I am replacing with the RGBW movers. The spots and effect washes were not selected for cloning. Neither were the house ceiling panels.
The spots have never been cloned or cloned from. The effect washes were cloned from the same RGBW backline washes I cloned the new key lights from. What did I do wrong? I have used cloning a whole bunch and never had an issue like this. In fact, I cloned the RGB ceiling panels from the existing RGB static wash The day before I added the movers. Everything worked fine. Any thoughts?
Any input is appreciated. Thanks for reading.

sACN On/Off on MPC

@claytonhubick wrote:

I've got an GMA2 and a M2PC off Windows 7 Pro both sending sACN to a gigabit switch/Pathway Octo node. We need to be able to switch form one controller to another and my 1st thought would be to simply enable/disable sACN off an F-Key on M-PC so only the one console was sending signal. Problem is when we turned sACN back ON, MPC had lost connectivity to the node. We ended up having to restart the PC to regain connectivity. I believe this is a possible windows network adapter setting?! Any thoughts?

Martin M1 secondary screen/slave

Hi,

I have a Martin M1 console that I will like to extend, I would like to have more room for playback cues on the screen as the M1 display is kind small.

I do not have a second touchscreen monitor but I do have a all-in-one PC that have touchscreen and is running at 1920x1080 resolution. Can I use this second PC as a slave to have another screen view page of cues that I can play ?
I didn't fully understood how a slave works and didn't have the possibility to test it. I am interested if I can have different screen views on M1 and the second PC running as slave, both being able to play cues when i click the screen.

Thanks!

FX Override

I am trying to use an FX Override to set cue speeds. Is it possible to set an FX speed for a cue with an override and have the Cue keep the override speed. (change the override speed for different Cues and on the fly change the speed of each cue and have it remember the new speed when you come back to the cue) be able to change the override after leaving the cue and have it not effect the cue I was previously adjusting?

Sending MIDI to Qlab

@Hanb wrote:

Hi,
I can't find the answer in existing posts, so i have two questions:

  • On M2GO we are running a show with 100+ lighting cues from one cuelist.
    Now we trigger some sound effects that are in a Qlab computer.
    I installed the optional MIDI cart in the M2GO, but it looks like it can not create outgoing MIDI.
    Can somebody confirm that?

  • In the other way around, when sending midi signal from Qlab to M2GO it just triggers the next que, not a specific que number. Or is there a solution to do that cue number specific?

But we prefer to trigger from de light board because that is our main cue list.

Thanks for help,

Easy panel for DJ-usage

Background: been using Lightjockey 2 for years and been easy to make a simple panel with clickable cues for use of various DJ's.

Now making a transition to M-PC (w/Martin USB-dongle) and been studying the software, patching, presets etc. are clear now - but is there any 'proven good way' to make a similiar, very simple to use panel with x amount of cuelists, so that DJ only starts the software, loads the last show, and has a panel with straight clickable cues?

Thanks for any tips!

Issue with embedded P/T Presets and fanning

@Kevin_Friddell wrote:

Seems to be something to do with fanning. If you manipulate the pan for instance after selecting a P/T preset it does embed. However if I select the same P/T preset then fan the pan, I lose the ability to embed.

I tried both fanning tool and command line using the "@parameter" syntax.

Any ideas?

Hey there. Quick question. I am trying to put together a list of my commonly used FX and saving them to the FX Macro preset page. However, when I do the macro doesn't seem to save the FX Timing info. I've scanned the options on the popup when saving the preset but I can't seem to figure this one out. Pointing in the right direct would be great. Thanks!

Hey I have an M1 and I'm looking at putting an external touch screen on it. I am under the impression that not every touch screen works with the M1. I was wondering if this specific monitor would work or if anyone knows of a similar one that would work nicely with the M1.
This is the monitor I am looking at
