Bug Report - HPU as the primary console

Date - 2.10.26

Console - Tour Hog

Software - V5.0.1 b.135

Issue - Having a HPU as the server causes the console to A) hang on trying to connect and loading the show, B) join the show but run extremely slowly, or C) destroy the show file if it has the same name.  

Example, I built a file on the console in the office. Loaded it in the HPU so I could use the HPU as a test console to flash the rig before it went out.  When it came time to fire up the console, I just tried join the show that was running on the HPU.  It hung on trying to load 3 times, finally joined, but, ran slow.  Shut down the console and restarted.  I tried to join the HPU show again and multiple times and it kept hanging.  Shut down the HPU and just booted the console.  The show file I had built in the office was gone.  

  • What is your network setup?

    worked on a show last two months with HPU+gighog ad master, stagehog as programmers desk and a hogPC for LD views. I did not encounter any problems you mentioned.

  • Here is the total network layout:

    Tour Hog at FOH running through a TMB EZ-LAN.  Multiple trunk lines between FOH and racks.  Stage data rack consisted of TMB EZ-LAN, TMB 1616 node, HPU, computer for Hog PC (Hog PC not running in this instance) and network monitoring.  4 TMB IQ66 2X in various areas around the rig.  

    This is an extremely solid network and has proved its self on hundreds of shows.  I've run a variation of this since 2019.  Only a few components have been swapped out over the years for newer versions.  The HPU is probably the newest item that was added last fall in place of a few DP8000's.  The biggest new item in this network is V5 software.
