Hi Guys,
during the last 3 weeks of i recognized a problem what happens in some times,
i want to Copy Cues and Files - by select them and press "Crtl + C"
The Error appears :
Watchmaker Error
Failed to get Data from the clipboard error - 2147721040: openClipboard failed
Can u tell me, why this error appears?
It´s a serious problem, it makes some programming really buggy.
Best regards
Ben

Hi Mike,
these are Rental Machines from a Tech Supplier.
Since i removed the VNC Remote Software no Error or Issue appeared.
Hm it was random Machine. Not a special Single Machine.

removed it from all machines.
prepared for the next show in 30 minutes
Let´s see if this happening once more.
Thank jfk & jonas for quick and comprehensive answers !

mh - when i removed them , how to control the display machines remotely?
a vnc installed itself? how to connect?
y - may this could be the reason for the issue

most times it´s running very well.
a few minutes ago it happened again - i checked the display via VNC Remote,
and there was a Issue Report saying the typical Windows Text "Programm has closed, unexpected error- click to exit"
So there was an issue at a machine.
Means the Display Software hast shut down.
when the error message pops up i lose the pattern on the display computer. i restarted the Watchpoint.exe
again, "Offline" "online" in my Production - than everything was running again.
It is not happening at the same place of the show its random.
We got a 360° Projection and a lot of content. Project is about 120GB.
Clips are
.m2v 1920x1080p 20mbit/s 15gop
i will check it in the next few hours/days - cause at the moment i have no idea, what could be the issue.
btw - do u have a information with the Aux Timeline stops? i posted it 2 days ago.

Hi mat ,
this is exactly the same way i did yesterday evening after show.
Now it runs smooth.
Is there a difference between blackmagic and datapath in the "fade-in-delay"
I will check that - when this job is finished.
Best regards.

HI Jonas -
facts :
Win 7 32bit
Intel Xeon CPU 31220 @ 3,20 GHz 4 CPU´s
4GB RAM
128GB HD SSD for Content/Dataton
all machines are connected by Netgear 16port prosafe gigabit switch.
Running 6 Machines with a AMD Radeon HD7900.
Each Machine playing 4x 1920x1080 by Display Port Output. So we got 24 Outputs.
All Outputs are connected to a AMX 32x32 DVI Matrix with 2m DVI Cables.
DVI Matrix sending a EDID to all Graphic Cards with 1920x1080p 50.
Way to projectors is a 100m Fibrefox Cable. We use PMD DVI Beam.

Hi.
In the last few days a issue appeared once a day sometimes two times a day - sometimes not one issue a day!
Project is standby and we are waiting to start the show - than the Message from a random Display Computer appears
: Network error, Display Computer: Connection Lost.
Sometimes i have to do a restart of this machine, sometimes i just have to go "offline" and "online" again and
the machine is back again and running fine.
Do you have any idea to fix that problem? Cause - if this happens during this is not good!!

Hi matkeane,
that is a good way to do that.
in this case we use Datapath cards.
Hm - so i guess i have to do that, i got 46 Cues for THIS aux timeline
Thank god - "Copy - Paste"
now there is one question left - aux timeline pauses for 0.5 seconds when the main timeline
runs on the next pause cue.
Thank you matkeane!

Hey ho...
question ..
1st
I got a cue in my main timeline, which starts a aux timeline with a clip.
starts well, plays well, but at the moment the main timeline pauses on the next pause cue,
the aux timeline stops for a short moment.
2nd
Got another Cue in the Main Timeline which starts a aux timeline with a live input (ppt and live camera). Got a smooth fade in
with 2 seconds, but its not a smooth fade, it looks like a hard cut.
is there a way to change these things?
clips are :
tech specs
6 WO Display Computers
22 Outputs
100GB of Content
Content 1920x1080 .m2v 20Mb/s 15GOP
Live Input 1280x720p 50
All Outputs are set to 1920x1080p 50

Hi Community.
In the next weeks i will have a job with a 360° Projection and 22 Projectors.
Now i have a question depending on the Codec for the Videocontents.
Some people told me to use .proRes 422 HQ.
Usually i´m using .wmv or .h264
At the last Show i had a few problems with the sync of the clips using h264. (That was a 6 Projector Softedge)
After converting to wmv it was running perfect and smooth.
For the 360° we have to run with a 100% Sync of course.
We are using Machines with a Quad Output, so each of them has to show 4x 1080 + 4 Displays (means 3 SE Curves) + 1 Audio Track.
So what would u prefer? I think that .proRes is really Performance Intensive.
It would be great to get some information.
I wish u all the best for 2013.
Best regards.
Ben

Anyway i cant get Midi controll - Value is 0000 nothing hapens.
I have already checked the Midi Setup in the Controller Setup but i cant find a solution.
Does anyone know this problem?!
Thanks for comments.

Hi Mike.
Thank you for answering.
One last question - you told me, that i should run the input signal in 60p.
Now is my question - Is there a way so send 1920x1080 60p? I´ve never seen
a 60p - it means 60fps or do you mean 60hz? than it would be a interlaced signal right?!
So i should avoid an interlaced signal - get the signal thru a image pro or something and convert it to
P right?
Thanks and best regards....
