Artnet startup issues

Resolume doesn't seem to be passing artnet channels to itself on startup.

EX: Simple dimmer fixture setup in GrandMA to control master fader (fixture ID and channel ID the same).
Assign fixture to any execuctor, assign proper DMX channel in Arena DMX shortcuts.
Executor will control Resolume while running.
Either fade executor all the way down or turn off, master in Arena is now "off". Shut down Arena. Fade executor to 100%, restart Arena.
If you open preferences and look at the Lumiverse, you can see Area receiving the correct channel and values, but these values are not being sent to the shortcut assignments. You have to reset any faders/executors on the MA while Arena is running in order for shortcuts to receive values

Arena reacts to incoming DMX on channel value change.

We have a ticket to have the option to sync the values. Until that I'd recommend setting up a macro that sets every channel you send to Arena to 0, and then back, on the MA.

There might be use cases where you don't want Arena to automatically sync up to DMX.

At least it's on the radar.

I already have a macro that turns off the Artnet layer when we don't need control (switching between servers) , guess I'll go create another for resetting values.

Art-Net Macro for anyone interested

Code: Select all

Assign Root "DMX_Protocols"."Art-Net".1 /Requested="yes" [Wait = Follow]
Appearance Macro "Arena CNTRL" /h=110 /s=100 /br=100 [Wait = Go]
Assign Root "DMX_Protocols"."Art-Net".1 /Requested="no" [Wait = Follow]
Appearance Macro "Arena CNTRL" /h=0 /s=100 /br=50 [Wait = Go]
