Kcan Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I updated some old sequences and created a few new ones as well. I went to the Hub to create a new show on an SD card (I have a mini-director) and I get an error message stating a sub-sequence in the MP3 file is not allowed. I am not very good at this, but did create shows the last few years using the simple show builder (now replaced by the Hub). Does anyone know what this error means? I tried creating a show with just a single sequence (tried several different ones) and get the same error. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hasslerk Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I have used a Director right from my beginning 6 years ago, and although I have had numerous issues over the years (mis-sampled audio files being the biggest culprit), I have never worked with sub-sequences so I am afraid I am probably no help here. Not even sure what it is or why I would need one. But I am assuming since you get the error that you actually have a sub-sequence programmed in. If this is not the case please respond here and we can try some additional debugging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibblejr Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Rather than retype or try to rephrase subsequences and what they are/ do and what not to do I will simply say If you are in S5 click the question mark and search for subsequence , if you are in S4 right click on the control panel icon and select Help and type i the search. When I purchased my original entire show and laptop in 2005 the guy had subsequence channels in every sequence. Fast forward to 2016, I have trashed all of those sequences every prop and haven't used subsequences. I [personally do not have reason to need them.

Michlind Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) so my sub sequence (but i didnt add one it was a motion effect row) came when i bought a ccr tree and programed it thru ss i read that there are ways to do it but they are not clear to me at this point hoping that someone could be a little more specific on how to get it incorporated so i can get it on an sd card to play in my N2-G4-MP3 director Edited December 28, 2020 by Michlind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add a ME row Right click the ME row Select "row" Right click on the row agai Add Super Star effect It will take you to SS Open your sup file you created close SS It will give you a warning , answer yes Your SS sequence will now be in your sequence The other way Open SS outside of S5 Open your sup sequence File Export Export as LMS Deselect the Macro Channel box Export Now it will be an LMS file and you can open that in S5 To use the above method you will have to add light channels to your ccr tree prop, sort them correctly and it would be best to group each port 1-50 to make the 16 RGB rows that SS will give you JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually discussed in the Help menu. So it's not new to everyone. JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasslerk Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Actually I meant to say new and obscure "to me". Since I do not use subsequences or beat tracks I have not experienced this problem (but now I know to keep a look out for it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
