Setup Steps after LOR Conversion?
« on: December 05, 2014, 09:43:33 AM »
Ok, so I have Xlights/Nutcracker version 3.6.9. I had a successful conversion from one of my LOR sequences into Xlights. Its 96 channels. I haven't added any RGB stuff yet, as I wanted to make sure that the LOR stuff was converted over correctly. So, at this point, i'm sorta at a lost. I created a few models from the LOR channels, but i can't seem to get Xlights to actually play the sequence and song. If i move the scroll bar in the "preview" tab, the models change according to the timing of the LOR sequence. But when i hit "Play" nothing happens. What am I missing? Can i build my models in the preview tab of all my 96 LOR channels to be played out along with the added RGBs?

I'm still learning, please bear with me.

I assuming you had no errors in your conversion. That would be the first thing to verify. I, too, added some of my LOR fixtures as models so I can verify they were responding.  Add an RGB model in NC tab and save it to the same file name you used to convert to from .lms.  Then in Preview tab, open that file and be sure to select 'no' when asked to reset my display flags.  You want to see everything.
Also, make sure the audio file is in your show directory. Everything must be there - xseq, mp3 and any pictures (if any). That is key.
