Artnet Problem

[meister_k]

Hi!
I have 9 Layer, which opacity is controlled by Artnet over a GrandMA Lightdesk.
I created a chaser for this 9 Layer on the GrandMA, but when this chaser starts, resolume totally messed up.
It jump across the clips and the chase do not work.
Second Problem is, when i controll the opacity over Artnet on 100% at the same time on all 9 Layers, the output goes black and I have to restart Resolume.
Any Ideas?

what channels do you use in the chaser?
are you using the default DMX map in resolume? you can find the channel list in Preferences-DMX-view DMX channel sheet

[meister_k]

No. I mapped the channels manualy on the AV-Fader.

[Zoltán]

you haven't removed the default mappings before mapping your channels, have you?
if there are mappings of channels you aren't controlling they will get 0 on their channel, which causes the composition fader to go to 0% for example on ch 1 , causing black output.

ok. is it enough to deactivate the "DMX Auto Map " ?

Yes, if you are using a custom map the DMX auto map should be disabled. I assume your custom mappings are overlapping with the clip commands of some layers.

the problem are not only the duplicate mappings, but all the other channels.
when you send dmx, resolume receives the whole universe of 512 channels even when you are using only 2 -3 of them, all the other channels will have 0 as their value and they will control all kinds of things in the default mapping.

edit: if you want to use the same custom dmx map for every composition without having to remap them every time, have a look at the Preferences directory ContextualDmxShortcuts.xml
it contains the default dmx map, the structure is pretty straightforward, make a backup of it and try edit to your liking, and enable dmx auto map, that 'should' load the edited map on the application level I think.
But for portability, I would recommend using the factory dmx auto map, if the dmx function you need exists in it.

I disabled the "DMX Auto Map" yesterday and it worked.
Is there any way to map the Deck selection to one Channel with different values like in the standard Mapping?
