Just use Windows 10 1909 version runs great. There is nothing on Win11 that you need.

You need to be more specific

embedded audio Problem with audio in HAP files
Alex Ramos replied to Veehxia's topic in WATCHOUT FORUM
I always use audio in different file .wav And I use ffmpeg script to extract the audio and mute de video file. Actually I have scripts for all my needs. As you can see on the picture all scripts extract audio from the files, so I end up with 2 files a muted video and an .wav file. Video -

autostart WATCHPAX - autostart.txt - script
Alex Ramos replied to Jonas Dannert's topic in WATCHOUT FORUM
Is my fist time using a display machine stand alone with am autostart.txt script. The script only runs if the machine is on a network, need to be connected to a router or other display, is this normal? Previously I used clusters, so I always included a network by default. Thanks- 20 replies

random restart Watchpoint randomly restarting
Alex Ramos replied to Alex Ramos's topic in WATCHOUT FORUM
Made a new skiny windows build based on 1909, used the ringt drivers and found a more compatible bios for ther MB. Problem solved, its runing for days with no problems. Thanks -
I always use as low as possible. Almost always use intra frames meaning no temporal compression, GOP 0 on 8K will probably generate very large files. Play with it to find a balance lower value best quality but bigger files.

So, I have this strange behavior. Watchpoint restarts and ges to watchout logo and IP. I have tried different media with different codecs and the result is the same. This happens with and without the production on line. It may take 5 minutes or 30 minutes before it happens. The only constant I seem to find is that this only happens if there is no interaction between Production ad display I suspect that could be the USB going to sleep and the key fails for a moment, is there a setting in windows that prevents USB ports from going numb. IO know this is a far fetch idea. What else can make watchpoint restart while running a show?

@KevinLin your time format is not corrrect. You must always used hh:mm:ss 00:02:32 for 2 minutes and 32 seconds 01:02:32 for 1 hour, 2 minutes ans 32 seconds. Hope this helps -
Nicely done

Thats great news. I'd like to apply though the company I work for in Portugal, www.hipnose.com to be a certifeid WO builder. I can move abroad to be trained.

So, it’s a fact and we all agree that WO fails to play HAP files smoothly regardless of the hardware used ? What’s the solution until the promised V7 is out? MPEG2 only key frames? Mjpeg? Proress 422? And I’m not being sarcastic.

slow transfer Transfer files from production to Watchpax too slow
Alex Ramos replied to MacDVD's topic in WATCHOUT FORUM
You need a keyboard and mouse. Click CTRL + ALT + DEL and from Task manager go to File - Run new task and write Explorer.exe File explore should pop up, from there do your stuff. I have not tried this, but it should work.- 14 replies

Could it be that the original file is temporaly compressed, mpeg, and a black frame is coming from the middle of the GOP!

slow transfer Transfer files from production to Watchpax too slow
Alex Ramos replied to MacDVD's topic in WATCHOUT FORUM
Use a direct USB transfer. Go on line for WO to create the folders and files names on the display machine, then take the USB drive to the machine and manualy transfer the files. This works well if only on or two machines are being used. USB 3.1 is faster than ethernet.- 14 replies

@Eddy Yanto thanks for the input, for now I will leave it as is. This is a very simple codeto serve my needs. I share it as it may help other, not as a "produt". Also as a teaser for Dataton to incorporate something similar. Its not realy hardcoded a fixed broadcast adress Dim endPoint As IPEndPoint = New IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 1234) The way I have my network setup is mask 255.255.0.0 and use IP 192.168.x.x This shuld work with any Class, A or C as long as the router passes the packets. Again Im not an expert on this mater, just a hobbyist. Always learning Alex -

Alex Ramos replied to Alex Ramos's topic in WATCHOUT FORUM
While waiting for a building video mapping do run, I had some spare time so here it goes. Well I have version working on UDP. But... I'm not a professional coder so I have some limitations. Always learning. The downtown UDP can receive messages from any IP on the network on port 1234. Is my understanding that. To use only one cue, WO needs to multicast, to all of the network, so the 224.0.0.1 should be used on the UDP string output!? Is this how it works? I'm missing something here. I can make it work over the network but I need to specify the address on the out string UDP cue, much like TCP. All comes down to, how do I broadcast to all clients at the same time using une cue only on WO? Attached is the UDP version, it can now be resized by dragging the corner. Help appreciated. Alex THIS IS THE LATEST VERSION AT THE MOMENT -

Sure, just create a new output with the remote IP port 1234 TCP, and run the app. Here is an improved version. Blennds better with WO and always keeps the time in 00:00 format. Always a 0 on the left.
