Spout and multiple decks loses source :-/

Post by georgeberlin »

Here's my odd issue-

All is good- Resolume rocks at 60 fps, Spout works grand with 5 sources, the same one in 5 places whatever.

But once I add a second DECK to the composition... then as soon as I switch to that deck and pick something new on the same layer as a Spout receiver, when I try to switch back to my first deck I have to re-select my Spout source from the list of senders. It's just gone.

For ALL the Spouts (and sometimes, certain ones won't be reselectable again, and I have to toss and re-add the receiver.) Also, when it does this, the names of my clips drop letters and sometimes lose the previews in the layer.

Anyone else having this issue? It'll do this with 3 clips on each deck and 1 Spout receiver even, so I'm not overloading it.

I've got a 2014 quad core PC, Nvidia GTX770, updated the driver and that didn't help, 12 GB of RAM running Avenue. Kicks ass all over everything else.

I'm trying to do some big audio-reactive set-ups using Spout and this is killing it for me.

IDEAS?

:D :D :D

So, the awesome folks at Spout worked this out...

Basically, unless you type in "[Sender name from Spout Panel when you hit 'select sender']"
in the 'Sender Name' box (right above 'update' and 'select sender') it will drop ALL the sources
every time you switch decks and come back again.

Good news- Spout V2 won't do this, they say.

There you are- don't be a dope like me :-)
