Update pop-up during show.

Post by Scratchpole »

Did a show Sunday night using v 7.22.3 rev 42822 (Lazy that I've not updated, I know).
I was close to the end of the show, Arena had been running all day while programming and performing in a venue with a very sporadic network. Suddenly the update window popped up on my gui screen. Luckily it was easily cancelled but concerning all the same.

Never encountered that before thought I'd let you know and see if it's a known issue?

Do you have update check disabled in the Resolume preferences?

It is set to check for updates and does it at start-up, (the update window goes behind the gui after it has loaded though).

Might be a good idea to disable update checks for shows,
also in the OS, btw.

Of course setting it to not check is sensible.
Can you please explain why it would suddenly appear like that towards the end of a whole day.
It has never happened to me before and it's little things like that are unsettling.

If the update window has been hiding behind the main window, a simple alt+tab might have got it to the foreground.
The update check happens once a day at most, so if Resolume was restarted after midnight, that might have triggered the check.

It was before midnight, mid show, no restart, no alt tab.
