General Questions... (b3148)

Running the new 3.2.0 software, I've noticed a couple of things to bring to your attention.

For background...I had started a new show and merged in EVERYTHING from an old show file. Wanted to make sure there was no old garbage being brought in from simply loading an old show onto the new software.

With 3.2, I have noticed about every 4 or 5 boots, the loading of the show will completely hang the console when the splash screen says "Desktop process loading..." I know DMX is flowing because the fixtures will all move to home, my startup macro starts it's countdown...but it just sits there, never actually loading the show and I have to do a full power down. Sometimes it will do this 3 or 4 times and then load the show finally. Other times, I've had to go in and load a backup file to get into the show. Like I said, this happens every 4 or 5 boots of the console.

I have turned off Autolaunch to see if that would help and it didn't.
I have deleted startup macros to see if that was the culprit and it didn't help.
Just can't seem to put my finger on why...

Also, every time I shut down, I end up with a "wait/kill" screen for a little while before it will actually shutdown the console.

Not show stoppers in any way, shape or form, but it seems odd.

It's the show file that Chris has...

  • As a follow up, I found something that may or may not help (since no one had responded)....

    Today, same things happened. Console hung up with the startup macro counting down on the right screen and stopped at Desktop Process loading on the left screen.

    Did a PIG-OPEN-BACKSPACE and the process window showed "Desktop - Not responding." RIght clicked and restarted the desktop and it immediately kicked in and finished loading. I'm now having to do this about every 3 or 4 console boots.

    Any ideas??? Anyone???
