Bugs in xLights/Nutcracker / Value Curve in Spiral Wrap V10 Broken

« on: April 09, 2018, 02:16:43 PM »

Just downloaded V10.  Noticed that my existing sine wave value curves on my Spiral Wraps do not change to the same full degree/angles as previous xLight versions.

Enhancement Requests / Circle Effect Sizing

« on: May 31, 2017, 05:46:26 AM »

I placed the Circle Effect on a whole house model and notice that when setting the size to maximum there is a big difference in sizes if the plasma type is toggled on.  Don't know if this is a bug but it would be great if the sizes could be bigger for non-plasma circles

Bugs in xLights/Nutcracker / Loop Video on Mac Issue

« on: November 21, 2016, 04:29:41 PM »

I have been using MOV videos which some can be looped in Xlights on Mac.  Up until version 50 everything has been working.  All versions 51+ play the video then stop at end when setting video to loop.  I have converted to AVI and MP4 format but the videos are either choppy restart or corrupt final frame image when it gets to the end of video and tries to restarts at beginning.

Spoke too soon.  In V31, OpenGL V3 produces choppy playback evan at basic effects level.  OpenGL V2 works but when trying to render a video effect with an effects layer it appears to hang (but I am sure it is just taking way too long to render).  Went back to xLights V22.

Tested new V27 with only the one video effect in the sequence.  It appears the the video is now behaving properly in that the selections of normal, loop and slow/accelerate now work identical to V22 non-OpenGL.  The issue to be solved now is that this file saves in 3.8 seconds on V22 but 33.1 on V27.  Definitely progress.

The video effect is definitely the issue on my mac on V26.  I created a new sequence with only one effect which was video.  It was choppy using avi or mp4 and would shake at the end of the video.  Could not get it to loop.  The strangest effect was that when replacing one video file with another and then Update, it would play second file which was shorter and then continue with the first one.  I set to the various OpenGL versions but behaviours were the same.

I deleted all the videos and the sequence now saves in V26.  I will slowly add them back to see what happens.

So are you saying there is a difference between V22 and V26 with how it handles MP4s?  As previously stated I can save the sequence on V22 with the MP4s in about 18 seconds.  Should I covert the videos to a different format?

I am able to create a new sequence from scratch on V26 and Save it.  Therefore, it must be something that is not porting from the V22 - Non-OpenGL app to V26.

Here are my files and stack traces. My sequence on V22 non-OpenGL is about 18.3 sec to save.

I have been unable to get the OpenGL versions working on my MacBook Pro 15" Mid-2104.  The most latest version that is working for me is V22 - Non-OpenGL.  The symptom that I am experiencing is that on saving or render all the application would hang.  I have tried changing to all the versions of OpenGL by rebooting both the app and pc but symptom remains.
I have tried loading xlights V26 in a Win7 Bootcamp on the Mac and the application hangs as well.
Attached is the Problem zip file.
