V6 DMX Mapping bug

Post by Mark77 »

Hello resolume forum,

I am new her in the forum but reolume user since a few years. I am a lighting guy from germany and use it with an lighting desk very often. Thank you for these really great new version!
But.... I have 2 little problems in mapping DMX channel in V6.
The first is, If I want to patch dmx channels for layer functions in layer 2 layer panel (like dashboard), then it shows the values of layer1 that i have patched before, but it Shows Layer 2 in the Header! You can´t patch anything for layer 2.

The second one is a feature of version 5. There was an option to patch one channel for selecting decks like the columns but in V6 is these option not available. Only switch forward and backward. That kills my hole lighting desk programming. Is ist possible to implement that feature again?

Unfortunately i noticed these bugs after creating the show file in V6 and now I have to create a new one in V5... :?


Thx
Mark

For your first bug, It sounds like you have your mapping set to "Selected Layer" Can you change the drop down to a different option and see if that will get you up and running?

In regards to your second bug, I noticed that as well.
It will be fixed in the next update.

I created a V6 MA2 fixture profile (with the accompanying DMX mapping .xml)
and a V5 Resolume DMX mapping .xml (for V6) to use with the V5 fixture profile as well.
I'll release those as soon as the update drops.

Hi arvol,

Thx for your replay!

What do you mean with "mapping set to "Selected Layer" "???
I did it like in V5 ... select the layer and then try to patch. You can see at top of the Layer panel that the layer 2 is active. Is there any new "special mode"?

Ahhh.... holy sh..! That´s a new feature. But the workaround is little bit scary, because you think that unpatch the other layer!

thank very much for your help!!

Yeah, it's a new system. Gives options for days and is very flexible. Good luck on the patching.

Once the update is out (soon) you should be able to do a deck select as well. :)

They're all ready to go. Once the next update is released I'll make a public post about it. I can DM you a link if you need it right now, but your deck selection will not work until the update.
