I know this is an old thread, but I was wondering about your carol of the bells dubstep sequence. I was wondering if there was a way to get a copy to help with sequencing? Tried looking up by the Facebook link you posted but unable to. Chadowamsley at gmail is my e-mail if you happen to see this message and still have the sequence.

Thank you

I was able to delete all effects on the tree, place an off effect on the tree, save it, then import the tree sequence with no issues. Only tried one of the couple I have, but it seems to be working this way which is fine by me.

I've tried deleting the model and adding it back. Also tried uninstalling and reinstalling xlights.

Only way I can get the square gone, and image look right, is to go into effect settings, select each picture individually and update. But there are a lot of pictures.

Only an issue on the 2 or 3 I have from holiday sequences. I have another from another website which doesn't have this issue.

Not sure what's going on. Old laptop was windows 7, new laptop is windows 10 of that matters. Looking for Help if somebody has any.

Hello

I'm having an issue with a sequence that is driving me crazy. Thriller sequence, in trying to put a thriller video on my p10 matrix, but preview always shows my matrix red. I've tried 3 thriller videos, all mp4, and all 3 do the same. I can place other mp4 videos and they show the video. Jyst seeing if there is something small I'm missing here. I can get pictures or whatever.

I'm out of town trying to finish sequence, so unable to actually okay it on my matrix to see if it plays the video, or jyst turns all red.

Any help is appreciated.

Do You Need Help? Post it here / Setting up and Sequencing back of house

« on: July 24, 2017, 08:41:54 PM »

Hello

Im wondering how to go about setting up, and sequencing, the back of my house this year. Never put much thought into it earlier. I added the back of my house in a preview, effects go left to right and such the same as the front of my house. I wasn't even thinking when I put the lights up, they will switch positions. If I'm explaining myself to where you can understand.

Just looking for advice on how to do this. The way I'm doing it now, I have a feeling the effects aren't going to be correct once I put the lights up.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks. Not sure why I didn't took off individual models for the task. Sometimes another set of eyes helps.

That makes sense, not sure why I didn't think of that. That's how I did the shooting stars and such. This is for my parents display, not a lot of ac changes, so trying too use just one program this year.

Thanks again

The Water Cooler / Question on ac light

« on: May 23, 2017, 07:26:12 AM »

I couldn't find on the forum so asking here.

I have some strings, 4 colors, modeled on xlights as the so I wouldn't have to draw 4 different models. Now I'm not sure how to get two colors on at the same time. I thought maybe adding another layer with the second color I wanted, but that doesn't seem right to me. Or do I need to know which color the two still make, and just put the blended color in the effects.

I'm ok with single colors, just when I want white and blue on together I'm not sure about.

Thanks for any help
