Tested on Ubuntu 15.04 qlcplus test packages Qt4 ans Qt5 versions all seems to work well with older projects. Hardware connected Enttec DMX USB, NanoKontrol2, USB audio interface and Digitus DA-70157 USB RS-485 adapter (Chipset: FTDI / FT232RL). Not tested with real fixtures, DMX output tested with DMX homemade tester.

changelog wrote: Video: (Windows) Videos now have a black background, like all the other platforms

This is unfortunately not true for my Win7 x64 tests.

I tested it also with different kinds of videos, activated fullscreen mode, activated Windows Aero style and both on my laptop and desktop win7 installation.

The tests I've done were on Windows 7 64bit !
The screenshot you've posted is not Windows 7...is it ?

bestdani · Tue Oct 13, 2015 4:12 pm

It is, I just used the classic skin.

Another screenshot:

Is it really the linked test build that is supposed to include that or is this accidentally only valid for any custom git build (I did not build from git on windows so far).

Is there anything I can do to investigate the problem if it should really work in that constellation?

Same here,

tested it on Windows 10 x64 with the same Version from bestdani.

[EDIT] image cut. I believe you

Oh, crap. Sorry guys.
I've made the video changes right after building the 20151010 versions !

The changelog is what's on GIT right now. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
I'm gonna build an updated Windows version.

I've got bad luck anyway. What I need to be tested is not tested, and what I consider marginal is the first thing to be tested

Ok it works flawlessly now on win7 x64.

If you can direct to what's most important to be tested first I could start with testing this if possible, since not surprisingly I was going to test the enhancements that were important to me first.

If you read the original post of Round 2, it says:

And, hey guys, I've implemented custom feedbacks for the AKAI APC controllers ! Check out the MIDI plugin docs. Hope you'll enjoy it.
Also the APC Mini should work out of the box now.
The XY Pad and Speed Dial now have new features. Read the updated documentation and check them out !

THAT's what we've been working on in the last couple of weeks.
It is sad that for months the Akai APC users opened a number of threads to have those LEDs coloured, and now that we've worked for them, nobody is testing it.

Then obviously everyone tests what are his primary functionalities. So, in general, all feedbacks are welcome.
You just caught 2 days of GIT disalignment

Good news from here,

APC mini is working fine, (manjaro x86-64, qlc 4.10.0 20151012 qt5), leds are lightning while associated functions are on and it gets black when functions are off !

Good work !

Hello,

You can use a download manager like JDownloader so the files don't get truncated.

Running on 64 bit Ubuntu 14.04 (with Qt 4) like a dream so far.

Hey Karri, with my latest changes on the DMX USB plugin, the Eurolite adapter should now be supported on OSX as well.
But since I don't own one of them, do you have any chance to plug it on a Mac and check if it actually works ?
3 things to check:
- kernel hot plug messages (dmesg)
- if it is listed in the QLC+ IO tab
- if it produces any output

Thanks !

I found a bug :

I created this file :

mappy_gag_061015.qxw: (53.09 KiB) Downloaded 846 times

then I remapped it by creating a new 48 channels dimmer fixture, but the new file created had a dimmer with 0 channel, I realised it when I tried to edit a new function, it crashed. Then I wasn't able to reopen it.
To solve this problem I edited manually qxw file.

I think I reproduced it, but just to be sure...you wanted to have the same fixture of the original project but with channels remapped ? Was that the goal ?
