how to load decks from other comps without overwriting?

[Remoz]

I just tried your tips, and now, all compositions that i import are empty..

After that i tried to change the IDs of my actual comp and when i drag/drop one from the bin, it's merging both and overwriting clips which are on same slots.

I'm on Resolume Arena 7.

You need to be very careful editing the composition file in a text editor, I guess you missed to change a few IDs. also you need to have the IDs you can find in the DeckInfo, assigned to Decks to have them show up.
That said, we don't recommend to edit the avc files manually.

I changed the deckID in

Code: Select all

<deck id="1234…"

as well (proforma). Just changed the last digit to something different. This is crucial as well. Just checked and it wouldn't work if the id was the same among different decks. Makes sense after all.

I think I could easily implement this into my CompEditor patch. I keep you updated.

Hi!

Having the same Problem with Version 7, but cannot open the arc in a Texteditor !?
Any Suggestion?

Try a different text editor, it's just xml.
