I will admit, this is my first time trying to use the Stand Alone Mode, however, I've watched the tutorial video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zzh7Lu2lvY
I feel like I've followed everything correctly, however, I don't want to do time triggers. so I didn't do that part. Everything appears to 'write' correctly to the DVC4 gzm.
Programmed 4 pages. After programming, I go to "test" mode. Cycle thru A-D turning them all to 01. (A01, B01, C01, D01).
My expectation is that after I turn on A01 and B01, that all my lights should be on. A01 = All lights Dimmer AND B01 = All lights White.
Also noting that all scenes are set to loop. Not sure if that's required or not. Currently programmed with the Current Release Version: Daslight Official Release 23rd April 2019
Please advise...I can attach the showfile if that's necessary to diagnose.

Re: Stand Alone not playing
I do see that when I flip on page "B" from 01 to 00 to 01 really quickly, I can see the lights flashing on...but they immediately turn off.

Hi.
An interesting question recently appeared with my colleagues who were interested in Das4. Is DMX or any MIDI Input in standAlone ?

Hello,
Sadly not. Only "port" and "time" triggers available for these interfaces.

Re: Stand Alone not playing with DVC4 gzm
I've noticed that you cannot play scenes from multiple pages at the same time.
For instance, I've configured two pages.
And Let's pretend my light has the following DMX Profile: CH1 = X Axis, CH2 = Y Axis, CH3 = Bulb/Dimmer
Key to programming below - (CH1 | CH2 | CH3)
Page 1 (Movers Movement)
-Movement 1 (255| 127 | OFF)
-Movement 2 (127 | 255 | OFF)
Page 2 (Bulb/Dimmer)
-Blackout (OFF | OFF | OFF)
-Full On (OFF | OFF | 255)
-Strobe (OFF | OFF | 127)
I would expect that I should be able to turn 1 item on from each page, however this appears to not be the case.
Desired Result:
Page 1 (Movers Movement)
-Movement 1 - (255| 127 | OFF)
Page 2 (Bulb/Dimmer)
-Full On - (OFF | OFF | 255)
Resulting DMX Values should be:
Movement 1 + Full On = (255| 127 | 255)
However, only the last touched values are being output.
So if I flip on Page2 Full on, the DMX output is (OFF | OFF | 255)
If I go back to Page1 Movement1, the DMX output is (255| 127 | OFF)
How do I get a combined output of (255| 127 | 255) ???

Hello,
Sorry but in Daslight4, you can't. D4 is a LIVE-oriented software and has been optimised towards that aspect. The Standalone feature will allow you to do simple triggers for your scenes, no complex transparency/merge/dynamic editing or anything like that.

Re: Stand Alone not playing with DVC4 gzm
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zzh7Lu2lvY <-- This demo from DasLight 4 says you can play up to 5 scenes at the same time. 1 per page. Is this not correct anymore?
See 2:35 of the video for reference.

Re: Stand Alone not playing with DVC4 gzm
It is still true. But this doesn't mean that you can set your fixture to be spread accross several pages.
If a scene affects one channel of your fixture, the page will contain the full fixture, not just the channel.
