So I've run into this issue a few times now where, if I have some sort of crash during a session (say from waking up my machine after hibernation and my displays have been disconnected, or *whatever*) it seems this sometimes ends up 'corrupting' the file and I lose the visual output of my set.
Oh sure, I launch clips and they show as playing, but the output is black. Even when I create new decks and drop in fresh sources, nothing shows! If I go back to the version of the set before the crash, no problemo. I've checked the master output, bypassed FX, etc... but for the life of me can't piece it together. I've restarted my computer, no dice.
Only thing I stumbled upon was viewtopic.php?f=12&t=15760 this thread which maaaaaaaaaaaaybe is related? I've had issues which corrupt XML messing with my Ableton sets before (as far as my research led me to conclude), perhaps tis the culprit in this instance too?
I save versions along the way so it's not the *end* of the world, but obv if this can be avoided I would love to know how. Thanks!
