Are you running in stand alone mode or pc mode, as the only timed settings for the program are in stand alone.
Have you tried right clicking the chanel tabs to see if you can release the ltp mode. or a global reset in any of the fixture tabs right hand grey hand with red cross through it.

This might be what I hve experienced a couple of times.
While in live mode, and a scene running, the box underneath the faders changes from auto to ltp after some time (never timed it).
This causes all my lights to freeze in the current state until I reset the channels back to auto.
I also noticed each time this happened, that a new, empty scene was created. These were showing up next to my existing scenes.
Would you mind coming back and replying if you experience new scenes being made each time it switches to ltp mode?

Ltp Modus after some time
I think i have this problem too.
With the old software version VC2 (2008)
all DMX outputs will be high after some time.
I must disconnect the Interface and restart the software.
The VC2 software version Jan 2009 are better for my failure.
Only the active device goes from auto to lpt.
I have generate a "Dummy" device an make
this device active. The live mode work now fine with all devices.
Only the active dummy device change sometimes to ltp
(there is not a device installed that used the "Dummy" adresses).
So i can Live with the failure.

I have never encountered this problem with any of my Daslight interfaces or which ever version of the software I have run.
It is a very strange thing to happen and cannot think for the life of me what is causing it.
Maybe because of the way I use the software this condition never occurs for me.
I work totally live and most of the time on the fly adjusting colours, gobos, positions etc. (via scenes) and at the end of each song I totally blackout (reset all to zero) except for my hazer which defaults to 60% haze and auto fan, ready for the next song.
My scenes are not very long, I think the largest is 40+ steps, I have a lot of scenes, but they do very minimal, usually a fixture setting, such as colour, gobo, my largest scenes are moving head/scanner movements, but they are just one sort of movement, i.e. circle, square, step, kicks etc. never combined except for a couple of preset pieces such as the blinding lights for when "Shine On" is sung, searchlights in part of ABITW etc.
How are you guys using it.

Hi everyone!!!
It hapens to me too.
It hapens after aproximately an hour of use, and it doesnt matter if you are in LIVE mode or doing nothing.
From the moment you start the software, about an hour later it occurs!
I talked to some daslight users that work on DVC1 and they dont have that problem, so it might be some bug in DVC2!

I have not experienced live tabs jumping to ltp mode. but the generated scenes.
What do you mean by the "running clock" in the editor screen? Do you mean the elappsed time of a scene near the top right ? Mine always says "00m00s00" unless I have highlighted a running scene in the editor.

Yes you are right , I thought the clock ran all the time , but as you say only when a scene is selected , and then only counts the step time.
I was just trying to think how this seems to occur for the first time after almost exactly one hour. What in the program would tell it that it has been running for an hour, the only other timer is for the DVC gold interface , (which incidently I am now using) but that is a built in timer and should not affect the program surely.
I will now look at the interface as I never had this problem when using the DVC512 interface.
perhaps there is a fault with the latest batch of DVC gold interfaces. who knows.?
