[Watchout 6.5.5 production software chrash]

Hi,

When programmering a show with Live update enabled and autosafe on I found that when draging content over the displays

the production software sometimes chrashes.

Last day I disabeled the Autosafe function and it seems that it did not happen.

Is this a know bug?

 

Kind regards,

Look into Bitfocus Companion app for the streamdeck.

It works fantasic with Watchout and pj link

 

 

[Timecode]

Hi,

After upgrading to 6.22 when the timecode jumps back in time or skips some other que's, 

the displaymachine does not sync and you will see some frames of non trickered que's.

On theProduction machine everything looks good.

Before the upgrade it was running for almost 2 years without any problems.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the replies.

I downloaded the NDI tool set and got it working.

Looks very promising.

Is there a tutorial about how to setup a NDI stream?

I want to try to import a NDI stream of a Powerpoint.

[DMX output over usb.]

Hi,

 

For an up coming event I need to sent dmx que's to the lightdesk.

Is it possible to use an USB to DMX convertor?

Or must I use something else.

[New releases of WATCHOUT and WATCHNET]

Hi,

 

I just try to install 6.1, but when I tried to go online it asked for updating Display machines.

When answered with yes it gave a message that my dongles were not found.

After downgrading to 6.0.2 everything worked again.

 

Any thoughts?

[WO6 timecode problem]

Hi Arjen!

 

In oder to trouble shoot your system we need need to ask you for more info

 

1) How is everything connected and what device is generating the timecode?

Timecode is coming in to the production machine by minijack in the line in. Timecode comes from the audio department.

2) WATCHOUT hardware?

New WO6 machines.

3) WATCHOUT version?

WO 6

4) When you say "I disable the timecode", how is this preformed, Is it a command from an external control system?

Disable from the production machine preferences

5) You say it is 100% reproducible. Does it crash also if you just pull the timecode cable?

When I unplug the cable WO doesn't chrash. When plugged back in it just works.

 

For the rest there are no timecode problems.

Timecode tester gives a good signal.

 

 

Have a nice weekend,

Arjen

[WO6 timecode problem]

Hi,

 

When the main timeline is running on timecode and I disable the timecode Watchout crashed.

This happens every time I do this.

I will be able to switch the timecode on and off while the timecode is running.

Any thoughts?

[Looping Prores files]

Hi Mike,

 

The message I get is: Error:Unable to decache DS video.

It's a 1824x384 25fps prores file.

Prores compression is HQ422.

[Looping Prores files]

I'm trying to loop a prores movie in WO6, but it doesn't work.

Free running is no problem but as soon as I turn on the loop button

I'll get a message and it will not play.

Any suggestions.
