Hi everyone using a Mac with Qlc,
Please post only if you are a Mac user as some issues seam to work fine on PC's.
Im still relatively new to Qlc and still getting to grips with it.
Im now running 4.9.1 on my Mac 1.2 duel core MacBook 2 g ram (white unibody model) osx 10.7.4.
My Question is - What are the known Mac issues with 4.9.1
Are you having issues with odd functions? If so which ones?
For example I was having an issue with using images in the Matrix Editor.
I was mistaken to think there was an issue with it. But after reading the manual again realized I was trying to use the wrong size files as images with my 34 x 10 pixel matrix panel.
If you have not got this feature to work yet try creating a .png format picture containing the number of pixels that matches the matrix size eg. A Matrix that is 34 by 10 must have a picture 34 by 10 pixels to be used as a still image. A picture made to match multiples of the horizontal or vertical size eg 68x10 or 34x40 work for scrolling images and animations (multiples of horizontal 34x10 joined as one image each 34x10 section equals one frame of the animation). I use a free mac Version of PC's Paint program to produce the images. Other good free software for Mac is GrafX2 and Synfig Studio (synfig.org).
This is a great feature and opens up a mass of possible fx on the matrix.
Now any help with Audio triggers on Mac?
Again this seams to be a feature I can't get to work. I set the input to mic and output to builtin. With the Matrix Editor as soon as I choose Spectrum Qlc crashes. In v console using the Audio trigger widget to trigger a function also crashes Qlc.
Maybe I'm not understanding how to use this feature. Any HELP on this feature and setting it up please.

Try the latest one and report if RGB matrix audio works now.

Thanks mcallagari for your reply,

Seams a easy mistake to make.
