Title: Help! Something simple has me at a standstill - Show files
Post by: pshaver on December 04, 2016, 08:29:25 PM

I have everything in the yard ready and waiting to go.  But when I copied my show file from Christmas 2015 and made Christmas 2016, something is happening.  I open xlights,  go to Setup tab and change my Show directory and media directory to the new 2016 pathway, then go to the Sequencer tab and try to pull up a sequence from last year and it can't find the media files!?!   :-\ 

If I change it back to Christmas 2015 everything works fine. 

I know I'm missing something really simple, sadly, it's beyond me to find it today.

Please help....

If it can't find the media file just open up the Settings -> Sequence Settings dialog and click the CD rom button to select the media file again.  Maybe the way xLights searches for files changed a little.
