And I think I had an experience where I had to stop and restart the show for the changes to take effect. But it's been so long I can't remember for sure, I just always do it.

bob_moody Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Jim,Just experienced exactly what you are asking about. Once the show is loaded, you will need to shut it down and restart to load the changes.Bob.I actually reloaded all sequences while the show was running and stopped the whole thing. Dont recall the actual message, but LOR didnt like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimswinder Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 eventually that is what I did...waited till the end of the show to "End Immediately" before it started up again...then enabled the show to see the changes...but alas, I still had/have these pesky "Ghost Channels"...deeper investigation this weekend...

scubado Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 During my Sunday night show I had some ghost channels also. In my case it was all 5 channels of one of my poles. After the show, I checked the sequence and found no problems. Reran the songs and it was fine. Before the show I couldn't some shows to go. I had friends on the way over and ended up having to do Show On Demand. After the show, this issue seemed to have gone away too. I have no idea what went wrong.

TJ Hvasta Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I remember seeing an option to Load sequences from memory or Load one at a time (something like that..) in SSB. Jim, how are yours set? When I make changes I usually just wait til a song is finished, End Immediately (or Unload LOR) then reload/enable.. then the changes are played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ Hvasta Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 yeah, with End Immediately and starting over, anything you do Jim, is worth people seeing again, and again.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I think the option that TJ is referring to is in the Show Editor, not the Simple Show Builder (I might be forgetting about a similar thing in the SSB, though). If you click on the Show Editor's "Options" button, one of the options in the dialog box that will open up is "Sequences are loaded when they are needed" or "Sequences are loaded before any are played".Once the Show Editor has loaded a sequence, it will not pick up any changes to that sequence until after the show has stopped.Regarding the original issue of the thread, which I gather has been resolved via doing something with "the FM transmitter" - could I please get a little more detail on that? What kind of transmitter? What was done with it? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLMCRZY Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 Bob, Upon further investigation I think it is a problem with the ac adapter for my laptop. I am in the process of moving everything to a different part of the house. I'am almost certain it has to do with the circuit I'm plugging it into.If the computer (laptop) is running on battery power, I have no problems. As soon as I plug it into the ac adapter I start to get these ghost signals. Lights come on at the wrong time, lights stay on, wrong lights come, etc. I will know more tonight after it gets dark enough to see the lights in question. As far as the transmitter goes I'm using a Ramsey FM 25B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLMCRZY Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Yes, That fixed the problem. Moved everything, plugged it in, and now its working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
