Dale W Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Does it continue to shut down after a restart, or are you allowing your computer to stay on overnight after the conclusion of the show?I ask this because a couple of years ago, I had a similar thing happen and had to reboot everynite prior to the show to kick it off?

Rod Posted October 6, 2007 Author Share Posted October 6, 2007 thanks in advance all......I'm tempted to try using the vista hardware utility not the one that I'm supposed to use wuth the adapter.ok tried that...same problem. what about uninstalling everything and starting over. will I lose my sequences? think its worth a shot?

LightORamaDan Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 There is a bug in the 1.6.3 version of the software that can cause shows to stop. It has to do with the length of the song and the length of the sequence being very close. The songs will sometimes never stop. There is a work around.In the Sequence Editor play the song from the beginning and when it reaches the end verify that it stops on its own without you clicking the red stop button. If it does then shorten the sequence total time (Edit->Change Total Time) by 1/2 second.If it does not stop, then shorten it until it does and then take an additional 1/2 second off the sequence.Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsrail Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Awesome. I had the same bug over the last few nights. Not every time a song played, but it would stop almost every time.Dan's fix seemed to do the trick.Now I can go record the video....Thanks again!Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Will this upgrade screw up any of the songs that have been finished with the older version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
