Blur causing darkness???

[enjoykaos]

Strange one this.. no idea why but when i put blur on say the master output it makes the screen dark.. same if on a clip but not if the effect/transform order is switched - then the blur works as it should... Very strange - ive been using blurs on the master a lot and this is a new feature.. any ideas what this is about - reckon im gonna reinstall when i get back to the club.. hopefully that will solve it...

Only thing that changed between when i had used it and it was fine and now was another vj used it last weekend... but yeh.. Not sure how he could have made this happen!?

Hi enjoykaos,
for those who are able to help you would be interesting what kind of hardware + OS and which Resolume version you are using.

best wishes

Hey sure... its Res 4.2.1 running on windows 8.1. Hardware is i7 with m2 ssd and nvidia 980ti running two datapaths and plugged into 6 projectors. Used it last night [didnt have time to reinstall] and noticed that the same issue was occurring with the blow filter... Its quite weird... Ill be back there this evening but probably wont have much time to look into it much as i have to setup for a gig in a different club...


for fun here is a clip from last night...

If I had to guess, it sounds like you are out VRAM. Effects like blur are very resource intensive, so it could be that Resolume tries to create the blurred image, and your GPU just doesn't have enough free pixels to do that anymore.

Starting fresh with a new comp should clear things right up.

Looks like the blur had become corrupted.. copied a fresh one in and was all good... did spiral tribe after party on Sunday morning
