Advanced Output Bugginess:
I have 2 video outputs and a Lumiverse, each pointed at different layers and groups as their inputs. I have found that Resolume often has to be "kicked" by toggling these slices and screens and DMX outputs on and off, or even pointing the slices to a virtual output and then back again to their desired video output (HDMI). In general, Resolume seems to stop using outputs randomly or sometimes it starts showing the OS menu bars on the outputs (plays in windowed mode despite being full screen in the settings). I have heard from a few other Resolume users that this happens to them too, and that the above solutions are the best way to wake it back up. Is there a way to make this aspect of the software more robust or to create a "wake-up" command that refreshes frozen or dead outputs? Thankfully it has never happened during a show but it feels like a matter of time now...
Re: Advanced Output Bugginess:
Could you please send us the Resolume log file via the feedback tab in preferences with your account email?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Advanced Output Bugginess:
we just caught it misbehaving again and sent the log, the gist is:
one Screen was sending video over HDMI to an LED floor, we plugged in a second HDMI to a projector and the existing screen died. Went into Advanced Output and it said that the LED floor was still connected so I changed it to Virtual Output and then back to where it was, and it worked again.
This happens with software changes and hardware changes, so while this time it was a hardware change, we've experienced this same bugginess when switching inputs from video clips in Resolume to NDI or Syphon.
It's almost a daily occurrence that one of the Screens needs to be re-set using the Virtual Output back and forth.

Re: Advanced Output Bugginess:
Just found some little bugs in Advanced output too...may be related so I'll share here.
When I start Resolume to continue programming a show using an advanced output, sometimes one of the virtual outputs reverts to 800x600 pixels from UHD and I have to put the correct size in again.
When I first add a slice or screen I go too add the dimensions but when I tab from width to height *for the first time* it does not move to the height field.
MBP M2 Max Sonoma14.5 (but has happenned with previous OS's too)
