Latest xLights/Nutcracker software / Re: 2016.31 released. This fixes the display model issue

« on: May 22, 2016, 10:28:33 AM »

When I forced Open glad 1.× I had the same problem.  When on the layout tap it takes over a minute to load then if I select any thing on the layout it reloads and then just goes into a reload loop.

I tried updating the driver today with no luck. Looks like the Dell Studio laptop does not support GL. At least I have a newer i7 quad core at home that runs the new and ever more amazing  xlight's.  Just have to shuttle it with me to the office .

I did a quick look for an updated driver and Windows came back with driver up to date.  I'll do a better look tomorrow the laptop is at work.

I have updated to 2016.31 and now the layout tab just keeps looping. when it finely loads as soon as i select something it starts looping again. I have tried all opengl settings and sent each of the reports. Went back to 2016.22 and everything works. I am using a laptop with a duo core and mobile Intel 4 series express chipset.

Do You Need Help? Post it here / RGB Globe

« on: September 13, 2015, 12:56:11 PM »

I'm using one of Brian's globes this year and was wondering if a custom matrix model was the best way? It's 200 pixels but not all rows are the same count.

Here is a spread sheet that will help keep model start channels organized.
I think it is the one from the video but I have started making changes to it for my setup .
It will calculate the start channel based in the number of nodes and strings in a model.

The Water Cooler / Re: Windows 10

On mine the path leading to the  user folders were different. So when I opened a xml doc on the win 7 laptops the path was not correct for the gif files. I did do the free upgrade to win 7 with no problems.

The Water Cooler / Windows 10

« on: July 30, 2015, 03:44:42 PM »

Just updated both my laptops to win 10. One was win 7 the other was a win 8.1. Everything seems to be running fine and finally I can use both to do my sequencing. Since win 7 and 8.1 used different file locations items like gifs would only show on my main laptop. Now I point them both at onedrive for show and music files and they both see the folders where the gifs are.

LOR / Converting 4 ccrs to dmx

« on: March 25, 2015, 02:08:43 PM »

I am going to run my show this year using nutcracker and ffp.
LOR just has to much lag time with hi channel counts.
I understand how to run my Ac boxes in dmx mode and how the controller id works for the starting address,
uni 1, unit id 01, channels 1 to 16.
Its the ccrs that i'm not sure of.  I know if I used uni 2 and set he ccr controller to 01 that everything should work on the first ribbon its the 2nd and 3rd ribbion I am unsure of. Since the controllers use multiples of 16 the next controller would be OB channel 161. Do I add blank channels to LOR so when converted channel 161 would be the dmx start channel. I really don't want to use a separate universe for each ribbon as that seems like a wast of resources. I already have about 40 universes running dmx rgb, 128 Lor ac channels and 4 ccr's.
