Feature and improvement suggestions

Feedback from users like you help us shape and improve Eos for all productions. We receive a large number of feature requests and suggestions from many sources, including this forum. Your comments and votes help us understand which features you’re passionate about, but there are many additional factors which inform development prioritization for any given release.

The most helpful information you can provide us when commenting on issues is how a particular suggestion would help you. If you describe your use-case and how the suggested change would benefit your work, it lets us gain a much deeper understanding of the need behind the suggestion. Suggestions often have an impact on what we work on, even if we ultimately choose not to implement a suggestion exactly as it’s described. Our ultimate goal is to understand what you and all users need and to create solutions that meet those needs. Occasionally, that’ll mean implementing a suggestion as described, but it usually means working to understand the need behind the suggestion and how we can meet that need for as many users as possible.

While we endeavor to update and respond to popular suggestions, the volume we receive means there will be occasions when we can’t provide an update or response in a timely manner. For bugs and show-critical issues, please use our standard forums and support structures: https://www.etcconnect.com/Contact/Technical-Support.aspx

    In short the output beam relative to the stage could be preserved when using the focus flip tool to invert the current tilt. This would be useful when ensuring that a positive tilt is used in successive cues to avoid extreme focus movements. Parameter...

    There needs to be a pan and tilt invert option for Augment3D only (the same way you can invert the pan/tilt visuals in moving light display) The issue I had this past week, is that I tried to add Augmented to the show after we already started writing...

    In a TV studio setting, being able to add a single channel to a fader quickly is very helpful, without needing to record any other subs/presets. (Coming from Congo/Cobalt) Having the ability to make this an inhibit is also very useful.

    With EOS v3.1 we got the ability to custom map encoders. I’d love the ability to have a custom ML control mapping, for EOS and iRFR.

    Hey, It would be nice to have a progress indicator/bar on show archive backup, sometimes it can take a while and feel like the console is hanging and you don't know how much longer you have to wait. Thanks, Tyler

    Working on a project with only 14 cues, and our PSD scrolls every time we take a cue. I understand the rationale from Anne in a forum a year and a half ago. It would also be great to be able to lock that for specific instances like this, so that I could...

    Hey there, I'd like to map sACN to Faders. In our youth theatre ensemble we have got an old Element. It can't upgrade to EOS 3. But I'd like to use my nomad with Augment3d and all these new EOS 3.x features. Element has 40 faders I'd like to use. I...
