Is "FADE" ticked in the setup page for the fixtures ? because if not it will just snap to the values.

yes...
i give an exemple....
in other example, i create a dimming FX for 10x LED painels, and when i create the automatic "steps", the steps are allright, the channels of fictures are ok...visualizating step by step, but when i click in "play", one of the LEDs dont respond...the channels dont dove, i cant see the numbers moving....comparing with the other LEDs...
and in the 3D, it dont show anithing in this LED, it t respond ..and in real, it dont get any signal...

its a bug software... now it is craching sometimes when im testing the "play"

What version of the software are you running ? Date from the splash screen when it starts.

It all works for me OK and many others, so I am pretty sure it's something simple.

Have you been patching/unpatching fixtures, deleting and re-creating scenes as it might be the database has got corrupted.

What settings do you have turned on in the "Options" menu ?

I have sent you a PM about emailing me your show.

What is the specification of your computer ?

That's good enough to run Daslight and the Visualiser.

Those LED Par 56s do not work properly in the visualiser. I have them and the LED pars work fine in real life but the colours are wrong in the visualiser. Can't get blue at all in the visualiser.

I am using the BETA version of the software and use it live and no problems running my show. I have nearly 500 scenes in over 30 Groups.

The software works......

You must have a problem with your install or something on your computer that is causing these problems.
Do a re-install. Start a new show. Change the options as mention in PMs.
Don't give up with it, yes it is frustrating.

As said in PM to you I cannot comment on the DVC1 load/import as have not used it. I will try tomorrow after work, with the file you supplied.

Yes there is a problem with the (Stairville/Showtec) Par 56 LED fixture file in the Visualiser, but they do work properly on real lights, I use that fixture file and real fixtures and have no problems with the real lights, only in the visualiser. It has been reported to Daslight, but have had no response. I even created the fixture myself and still the same problem in the visualiser.
