If you have a device that has higher output capacity than the base, 2.6 software will unlock output as noted in the release note.

Thanks all.

So I read through the documentation about the new license's (Base & Unlocked), For example, I have a Nomad Key, If I update that now and purchase the unlocked tier, but then had to use it with an old show (v2.5.2 for example), what would the capacity be? Would it be Unlocked, Base or what is was before?

Hej dear ETC-gang,

Bug-Reports here or new post?

Edit:
I will just hold that here for now to not forget about it....

In the Snapshot-list I wanted to exclude Snapshots from the favorites (2.5 Showfile all Snapshots had favorite entry). When I said Favorite_Enter it didn´t change anything on favorites but switched everything else off...

That´s a bug isn´t it?

What are the base/unlocked capacities for Classic EOS/RPUs? They are not specifically mentioned in the release notes.

Hello Paule,

About your Snapshot question - yes, that is a bug. In v2.6.0, in the Snapshots tab, select the Snapshot you do not want to have in the pop-up Favorites. Then, use the softkeys to choose everything you *do* want it to have.

So, you might say : Snapshot 3 Visible Workspaces Direct Selects Custom DS.

If you know you don't want a Snapshot to be a Favorite when you first record it, uncheck the Favorite box before you finish recording.

If you update to 2.6, there is no reason to downgrade to 2.5.2 because all your old show files will work with 2.6 and your count will stay unlocked.

The downgrade is for existing shows, for example I have several tours currently out and will not be updating those shows as they are touring successfully, but may be jumping into the older Nomad for checking things.

If you downgrade from 2.6, your previous output capacity will be used. The look-up table that unlocks capacity is a function of the 2.6 release. It does not actually re-program the dongle.

Thanks!

Sorry Anne, I meant in relation to purchasing an upgrade to full post 2.6, and how that reacts in your older versions? Sorry for the confusion.

If you purchase an upgrade, that reprograms the dongle and you can use any version of software you like.

Thanks!!

Matt,
in 2.6 is there any way to tell a snapshot to go to a specific monitor in Snapshot-List?

Thx!

Hello Paule,

When you record the Snapshot using [Record] {Snapshot} nnn - the onscreen tool shows you which monitors/frames you're recording. That method remembers the look of each screen - and if you only tell it to record what is on Monitor 2, it will put that look back on Monitor 2, but not change anything about Monitor 1.

Maybe you want to record a Snapshot look, but be able to apply it to any Monitor? If that's the case, you want to create a Single-Screen Snapshot (SSSS to be confusingly short). To do that, open the Display Controls tool (the tiny computer screen in the top-left corner) (boxed in Green), then click on the "New Snapshot" button (boxed in yellow):

When you want to apply that Single-screen Snapshot to a particular monitor, open the Display Controls tool on that Monitor, then click on the SSSS. Or, make sure that the monitor you want to apply the SSSS to is active (has the Gold bounding box, then type [Snapshot] [SSSS's #] Enter and it will fire just on that Monitor.

You can convert a Single-screen Snapshot to a Full Snapshot in the Snapshots editor (Tab 19). [1] {Vis Wrkspcs} {Direct Selects} {Favorite} is the default for a new Full Snapshot. You cannot directly convert a Full Snapshot to a SSSS one - you would just fire the Full Snapshot, then use the Display Controls method to record the SSSS version that you want.

And when firing a SSSS from the command line it will always return to the monitor it was recorded from
