freeze with Arena 7.0.4

Post by Snoxxx »

I have a freeze with Arena 7.0.4 saturday when i play a auto pilot strobe with slice not patch.

same layer
column 1 Strob / slicetransform /mask = slice1
column 2 Strob / slicetransform /mask = slice2
column 3 Strob / slicetransform /mask = slice3
column 4 Strob / slicetransform /mask = slice4

if on output i don't have slice 1 /slice 2/ slice 3/ slice 4 and i play this layer i freeze.
Solution are easy, delete this layer and no freeze all night

edit: maybe i do create new post ? freeze are same, but no probleme on load media, and on win10

Moved post to it's own topic.
Do you still have the original composition where this happened?
If you try now does it happen again?

Yes i have save it, if i retry, same issue.

(is for prepare strob chase up/down or left/right on 4/8 slice, but all show don't use 4/8 slice)
before last update, if slice are not "patch", all comp strob and end. (no freeze)

where I can send you this ?

more details: is on one layer (17) with auto-pilot "play next clip" on layer and last clip auto-pilot return to first (for multi chaser on same layer)
ex:
1>2>3>4 >return 1
6>7>8>9 >return 6

Could you create a recording of the issue happening, so we can see what's going on exactly?
Thanks!

Ok, i try lots of thinks for reproduce the freeze from start and i found :D

I use 4 strobe effect in layer in autopilot on 4 slice (i think slice are not important)

layer are auto pilot ">>>" and duration of strobe are 0.1s (frequency 0.99).

If i do a transition time layer > 0.1s on this layer = freeze
If i do no transition time layer, not freeze, all works

Edit: i try with source -> Stroboscope, same issue when transition time in layer are bigger than duration of one clip in autopilot layer
it's PEBKAC (Problem exist between keyboard and chair) aha :lol: ,normaly i don't have transition time on this layer

Maybe we can have a "protection transition" on layer ? (force to 0) (and protection speed, force to 1?)

Seems to work fine for me with these settings:

I see the layer flash with the strobe, and one clip is advancing to the next in the amount of time it takes for the transition to complete.

Could you send us a screenshot of how you've set the clips up?
Thanks!

Hmm, watched your video, and it's very strange that this would freeze the Resolume UI.

Do you have a shortcuts mapped to these strobe clips by any chance, and the shortcut output feeding back to Resolume?
Could a midi, OSC or DMX output send back to Resolume?

In preferences, no dmx, no osc, no midi
I turn off keyboard, dmx and midi map (new profil empty) - same issue
I delete layer with clip trigger by timecode - same issue
I delete layer with sdi in - same issue
I delete layer with missing clip - same issue
I delete layer with clip - same issue
I test with comp auto (75) or 60 - same issue

strange comp^^
I do turn my 2080 in x8 PCIe because i add a x4 input card (i do check that ?)
