Saving Sequences? total newb question...

[Bluegrover]

This is my first year and everyone has been so wonderful on this forum and sent me some Halloween sequences to mess around with. My problem is that I cannot figure out how to save them. I put the mp3 in the same folder that the others are in and I put the .lms in the same folder that those are in and when I go to play - it says:  ERROR WITH SEQUENCE (Error playing media file: Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you are trying to play, burn, or sync an item that is in your library, the item might point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.) 

 

I even tried making my own sequences on the upstairs computer, but when I tried to save it to my LOR computer, same issue. I am only running 16 channels (first year) and I love the look of my set up and cant wait to add more, but I feel as if I beating my head against the wall on something that should be so simple.

 

Help!

I would suggest opening the sequence then going to Edit -> Media File and making sure you have the correct audio file selected. I know you said you do, but check it again.

 

Also, if the directories are not *exactly* the same on various computers, you will run into issues. You may also want to reset your LOR data directories so that you are 100% sure they are the same. See this article for help in doing that.

 You must link the .lms file to the media file. In the top menu go to edit/media file and link your song to the .lms file. Caution if you move the file to a different folder later you must re-link them again. You are mapping the media file and telling the .lms where to go find your song.
