Layer Solo inside Group

Post by dirtyjohn_lv »

If you use Solo on a layer that is inside a bypassed group, it acts as a bypass

EX:

Layer 1-3 are basic composition layers
Layer 4 is inside Group 1, Group 1 is bypass (this is it's own slice in advanced output).

Video playing on Layer 2 and 4, try and Solo layer 4 and it disappears from the output. If you remove bypass from the group, it works as expected

This is how I would expect it to work. Not seeing what the bug would be?
If a layer is a child of a parent and the parent is set to bypass, anything under that parent's umbrella should be bypassed as well.

If you're doing a direct layer route to a slice, you could play the the ignore bypass boxes in Advanced Output.

The group is bypassed so it doesn't show up in the main composition. In advanced output, slice is routed to group, with ignore bypass.

Running video in the group, works as expected, but as soon as you solo the layer in the group, it disappears from the slice, which is opposite of what solo is supposed to do. If I create a group with multiple layers and solo one, NOTHING is shown in the group routed slice

Which Resolume version are you using?

Edit: Ok, I see it.
Looks like the soloed layer in a bypassed group is not rendered to the group texture. I'll create a ticket.
