Please help

Rencoding worked thanks I was hoping I was not going to re sequence the song 57000 events

I HAVE A SONG IN MY SCHEDULER BUT WHEN IT PLAYS IT WILL NOT END .? ANY IDEAS?

1.16 is a very good firmware.  I ran it as my own preference for a few years.  It does suffer from some random "sticky channel" issues under certain very specific circumstances, but I personally found it more stable than 1.17.  1.19 is completely incompatible with Aurora, and 1.20 returns compatibility when using the EEPROM compatibility setting.  There is some debate as to which is better, 1.20 or 1.16.  Our testing here was inconclusive, so I simply advise customers to use whichever of those two works best for them.

For future years, everyone should plan to transition to the OpenDMX firmware on their D-Light controllers.  It is perfectly stable and is the direction Aurora is heading.  I am presently field testing a 368 channel DMX only network that is entirely OpenDMX firmware and a hybrid build 185 / build 90 environment and it has been running flawlessly.  The code used to accomplish this will be finding its way into the public builds in 2012.

well I just tried it in Light Show Pro, and had the same exact issue, so I'm pretty sure it's not the sequencer, but the hardware. I'd like to try firmware 1.16 but I can't find it, D-light doesn't have it on their sight any more, anyone know where I can get it? I'd rather not go 1.2 as I've heard of a couple people having issues, 1.16 seems to get the most votes for stable.

Originally posted by BigDPS I feel your pain. Been there, done that, felt like abandoning it all.Many of my problems have been cured by staying at 1.16. I had tried 1.17 and even 1.20 and it didn't do anything but misery to my cause. I know it is a pain having to redo the firmware on your boxes but just for the heck of it, try 1.16 to see if it goes right for you. You're still early in the season unless your show was only up for this weekend? Keep coming back and we'll try to find out the problem, one way or another.

Yeah I think trying a different firmware is my next step. I will try 1.16 first, if I still have issues I'll got to 1.2+EPROM hack.

The strangest part is that it is only those 2 channels. Which is very annoying, because the Nativity is kind of in the center of the display, so I have this big dark spot right in the middle, instead of the 600 mini's and a spotlight that should be there. Also super strange is that on some of the sequences it seems to react properly, but only on ones that those 2 channels are only on for short amount of times, any sequence where they are supposed to stay on for a while, they don't. ????
