ERROR IN CHANNEL COUNTS WITH VER .23 64BIT
« on: August 23, 2017, 08:08:27 AM »
THE ERROR OCCURRED WITH THE LATEST UPDATE (version .23 64 bit)
the only way to get the channel count correct is to change the STRING count to match the LIGHTS/STRING

it appears that counter is pulling from parameter 1 without multiplying parameter 2 (or so it seems)

Some string types are only 3 channels so without seeing how you set that parameter it could be your fault.

of course it could be.

that is why i sent the screen shot

using standard RGB pixels they should be 3 channels per pixel
at 120 pixels, there should be 360 channels

Gil's point is your screenshot doesn't Show the string properties.

Ok so now you're saying updating xLights modified all your string types.  If so that would be a major problem we need to fix.  I really don't believe that so demonstrate it in a video if you want to convince me.

No problem.  Just trying to make sure there wasn't another issue we don't know about.
