Bug? Jumping dimmerfaders if master less than 100%>> Partly solved in 29-11 update

Post by Sps »

Situation:
Scene with fade=-in and fade-out times (eg 3 sec.)
If the scene is activated with 100% masterfader, the fade-out behaves normally.
But with the masterfader less than 100% - say 70%, the channel dimmerfader will jump downwards substantially and fade-out afterthat.
The same behaviour if the scene is dimmed in live mode manually the same amount.

Solution???

Update: The behaviour of the masterdimmer seems OK now (beta 29-11), however, the dimmer in the scene itself (in livemode) still causes this jump. Very good visable with scenedimmer 50% and fade-out 3 sec.

Hi,

I second that. It seems to be a bug. I will add it to my list for further beta testing.

Regards.

Update with version 10 april:

The scene fade-jump when the masterdimmer less than 100% has re-appeared? :(
Fading from one-scene to another with both the master and scene fader less than 100% will also jump the dimmerfaders

No good!

Hey,

That's strange... Could you please send me a showfile for test purpose ? I can't reproduce the bug.

Hey,

It is fixed in the version available online, yes. Please, let me know if the fix works for you. I could reproduce the problem and fix it so it worked fine for me.

I'm very pleased with the improvement! Thanks.
Now I have to learn to play with fade-in fade-out times when switching to another scene.
The jumps are gone, but now I realize that the software has to calculate where do I come from and where do I go to in terms of DMX value. And if the master is less than 100% it must be involved in the calculations.

But it follows now the fade-times or the scenes. And that is nice! Thanks.

(I hope you understand what I'm trying to say... :D )

Hey,

Of course, I understand and am happy to read you're pleased with the changes. I'll add your advice to our list of things to fix in next versions.
