Ok:
• there's a clip with generative content with a custom thumbnail
• I drop a .wav over it while pressing shift
• The custom thumbnail is gone and I get the default one for whatever the generative source on it is.
I figured out that the problem was that the audio was being dropped on the visuals from a clip that was set as persistent. The problem now is the thumbnail resetting which is not as bad!
and this is the thumbnail on windows which incidentally looks like the mac did the other day. With PIP screen rather than the audio and video on top of each other

When it looks like this the video doesn't play. If it resets the thumbnail as above then both play...
Screen Shot 2020-09-15 at 13.03.24.png This is one. I'm getting extremely erratic behaviour. Now, dropping audio on a generative clip resets its thumbnail. About one in 4 attempts at doing this then works as expected (with reset thumbnail) the other 3 times the visuals disappear and only the audio ...
I've also just realised that dropping a wav on a clip with generative content makes the content invisible. The clip's thumbnail displays as if the content was AV but the clip panel doesn't show any of the generative settings. Splitting audio from the clip brings back all the generative parameters an...
I'm on Arena 6. I never tried using composition fft before but it doesn't appear to work. I have a wav playing on a clip but Arena just doesn't see the audio. External fft is working fine.
Are there any settings I'm missing for this to work?
I'm afraid not. No OSC or DMX.
Interestingly this seems to only happen when I'm in the middle of a performance, never when preparing stuff. Very frustrating!
I just updated Alley and tried converting a couple of files with audio.
After several attempts and constant crashing, it rendered the files and then crashed. Now the files never load in Arena 6, I just get a little rectangle and nothing happens.
