Cobalt 7.3.1/Win7 congo jr: trouble opening system settings, goto doing strange things

Hey everyone,

I have some trouble with to different congo jr. Both of them got their Win7 hardware upgrade some days ago, after this both bugs start to appear.

On both desk cobalt v8 is installed parallel, but both still used with 7.3.1

1. Opening the system settings

After hitting "go to system settings" the welcome screen comes up, but nothing more happens.

After unplugging one of the screens und plug in again (DVI) the system settings opens.

Or in the welcome screen hit "ctrl,alt,entf" and the close the win7 screen, the system settings show up.

I can reproduce this behavior on both desk.

Working on a sequence in the main playback. Hitting "0 Goto" the main playback jumps as expected to the zero step in the sequence.

After some seconds the desk starts to fade in the 1. cue.

Same when you do this with the remote (hardware remote). Happens on all showfiles and on both desks.

Does someone experience the same stuff? Or is this already known as a bug?

Gonna appreciate any help with this. The goto bug is annoying a lot.

Thank you!

Thanks for your feedback. Can you send us one of the show files where 0 GOTO doesn't work?
Are you using any Wait or Follow times?

Hey,

yes we use wait and follow times. I go back to the desk and copy one show.

Are you using Wait or Follow on the first step of the sequence?
LoQue over 7 years ago in reply to Anders Ekvall

There are noch WFA Times in the 1. step.

edit: is there a way to send you the show file private?

I have found a bug. If you step over a step with a follow time, the follow time can be kept and used for the next Goto operation. This will be fixed in the upcoming v8.0.1 release.

Good to hear. :)
It wasn´t me just being stupid .

Thanks for checking whats going on.

Do you already can say something about the system setting stuff?

We have been trying to reproduce the problem with System Settings not opening on Jr and Win7 but without success so far.

Hello Anders

Same issue happening on my congo Jr fresh upgraded (motherboard, ssd, v8).

After installing V7.3 (because of show running only on this version) i'm not able to go to ''system setting'' and the second screen is blue, except the menu at the bottom showing channel and value...

Thank for your help
