Setting up show for SD card on the LOR MP3 Hardware Tab

[David Barnett]

Hello folks. I have already sent this to the wishlist folks.

Is there anyone using the MP3 tab on the hardware utility; to set up your show for the SD card to go in the MP3 player.

If so, has anyone figured out a way to select and add more than one musical/animation seq. at a time?

Just checked my 2.3.6, the harware utility doesn't have that feature.

Last season, first timer..it was rather a pain to get all the songs in the hardware MP3 tab to copy to the SD card. As I had the same shows run again, in diff. order.

I have tried SHIFT click and CTRL click...no go. As well as using CTRL a (select all)

Any ideas appreciated to make this somewhat easier this year if possible. Will probably stick with the MP3 this year, perhaps move to a computer controlled show next year. So many ideas, so little time.

Thanks.

That feature is not present in the current software. It is on the to do list and will hopfully be available for you this season.

Thank You Dan, for giving this some consideration.

You should be able to go to the Retrieve License page and get your license. We have a temporary workaround in place that is working for now.

Well I have the latest and greatest (newest version 2.6.7 I believe) of the Light-O-Rama software and I CAN NOT add multiple files (sequences) using copy/paste or the CTRL key. So if this was added, how does one get it to implement? Because I can't do this from the Hardware Utility file under the MP3 player either. Adn I want to add a LOT of BLANK MUSICAL SEQUENCES to run/play Christmas Music and announcements of showtimes for my display during the shows off hours. I'm tlking 40-60 files here and adding them one at a time is not only a pain, it's just downright annoying to have to click and add, click and add for each file, when just clicking on the folder that contains these empty sequences except for music/announcement files would make this soooooo much easier to get things done much faster and more efficiently!

BTW: Another feature (I can't seem to find the wishlist area for some reason) I'd like to see is being able to use under the STAR OPTION ie the FADE UP/FDADE DOWN with the intensity setting without having SHIMMER or RANDOM FLASHING also selected. Many times I just want to fade something up at a lesser intensity WITHOUT the addition of random flashing or shimmering. So just being able to select Fade Up or Fade Down with ONLY the INTENSITY setting would be a great plus in my book! As this is a feature I'd use quite often, as it is now, I have to fade up, guess how long I need to make it, then try and use the regular intensity setting to adjust everything, again, a process that is far too long and painstaking to get right, so being able to just select FADE UP/FADE DOWN and INTENSITY ONLY under the "special effects area (STAR)" would definitely be a great feature to have.



I'd also like to see the Hardware Feature have a REVERSE feature when you select all channels and it operates the lights, then cycles back, actually I'd like to see THREE OPTIONS here. FORWARD ONLY 1-16, FORWARD Then REVERSE 1-16/16/-1 (back and forth), and REVERSE ONLY 16-1 when testing the LOR Controller(s) for operation and making sure all lights are working. This isn't really very important, just think it'd be nice to have when testing controllers.

Thanks!
