Trickyd Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Hello Does anyone has ever seen the message: Time is running backwards, while starting the visualizer? What does it mean? Dick The Netherlands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Known issue a while ago. Update to newer version. Sent from my Droid Turbo via Tapatalk, so blame any typos or spelling errors on Android Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trickyd Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 Hello I am using 4.3.14, is there a newer version? Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Your profile shows ver 4.3.0 did you just recently upgrade to 4.3.14? If you did just recently upgrade did you reboot the computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trickyd Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 Thank you for your response, I did update as soon as it came out, always shut down computer after work done. ( no sleep ) the visualizer is running W10, I5, 16 GB. 1920/1080 display dedicated only to visualizer, no other tasks. Strange. See if it happens again tonight.

LOR Staff Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Ignore the part at the top about me leaving the wrong code in. That was corrected long ago. The explanation of what is happening is however correct. Read the section - "When is a reboot not a reboot" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sax Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 This happened to me too. I rebooted to correct. I have not seen it again. I am using upgraded windows 10 from windows 7 ultimate. My error occurred such: morning-sequencing and running sequences while testing dmx controllers. Create show. Stop. Don't close any programs but I do stop running the visualizer simulation. afternoon - go to watch created show in visualizer...start to render the visualizer and error occurs. Unload all LOR programs via tray. Start all programs. Same time fault. Let out huge sigh. Cringe and reboot. Start and it all works. This was about 5 days ago and so far no further faults. I never turn my pc off or reboot unless absolutely necessary. Been doing this over 10 years same pc. It is a gen 1 I7 HP. I know. Time to upgrade. Looking at Lenovo Y900 series PCs right now. Think I can get 10 years out of that one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesWright Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I just had this happen to me also. I am using v 4.3.18. I have had this happen several times in recent years. It just happened about 15 minutes ago. Does anyone know why or how to correct it? Thanks. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Not sure why you'd want to correct it. I say rejoice! How many times have you wished you knew something as a teenager? Here's your chance... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khawes Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Here's what microsoft has to say: Quote Note that the value returned by the timeGetTime function is a DWORD value. The return value wraps around to 0 every 2^32 milliseconds, which is about 49.71 days. This can cause problems in code that directly uses the timeGetTime return value in computations, particularly where the value is used to control code execution. You should always use the difference between two timeGetTime return values in computations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
