  1. Question about the autostart script
    When I start Watchpoint.exe Display-PC in the task manager, the start script is not executed. For example
    authenticate 1
    delay 3000
    setLogoString "Start Show
    delay 5000
    load "Stockholm_Mainshow
    wait
    run

    If I link a Watchpoint.exe shortcut to the Windows Autostart "C:\Users\admin\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup", the display PC starts the show correctly. Does anyone know the problem and is there a solution?

  2. I have a problem with the file transfer to the display PC.

    Specs display workstation
    W10 - 64Bit LTSC Enterprise 2019 Build 17763.rs5 release 180914-1434
    Watchout 6.7
    Mainboard: Shuttle SZ270R8
    GPU: AMD RadeonPro WX7100 + Synchboard S400
    CPU: Intel i7-7700K
    RAM_ 32GB
    Datadrive: NVMe SSD Samsung 1TB
    Windows up to date
    all drivers up to date
    On board intel-i211 Networkadapter and Intel 2-X550 10Gbit-Networkadapter

    Case 1: In my timeline there are only some images (jpg,png). When I start the transfer (CTRL+L), the display computer needs up to 20 minutes for an HD image or freezes or the network connection breaks off by itself after some time. Watchout Display only shows "Caching". In Explorer, however, I can see that the content has been transferred. The content is only displayed after restarting the display software.
    Case 2: In my timeline there are the same images and also movies. The transfer of the images as well as the movies is as fast as usual and completely error-free. How can this be?
    Case 3: I insert another image into the timeline and start the transfer. Now the same error occurs as in Case 1.
    In summary, images are only transferred if movies are also transferred to the display workstation at the same time. It does not matter whether I address the display workstation by name or IP. My DELL 5820 display workstation works perfectly with the same image (LTSC 2019).
    If I use Windows10 LTSB 2016 (tweaked) or even W10 Professional (tweaked or non tweaked) instead of LTSC2019, Watchout works flawlessly on my Shuttle workstation using the same hardware (display computer, cable and switch). The transfer of individual images runs quickly and smoothly. Does anyone have a solution? The error is reproducible.
     
    Thank you for your help. Andreas Grunewald
