OSC and virtual console buttons

The OSC inputs work for an hour and a half and then they stop responding.

Yesterday my colleagues finally found out what the problem was.

As long as a button got all its inputs through OSC it worked like a charm. But in one part of the play we clicked the button by hand 4 times over the web interface and after that the button ignored all inputs coming from OSC.

All other buttons listening to different OSC channels worked as they should.

When I looked at the Virtual Console xml file the button was copied to many different places and also the line defining the OSC input was copied.

This means that there are dozens of buttons with exactly the same OSC input channel values. When the OSC signal comes I have no idea which button Id is activated. They all tie to the same function (and audio ding-ding doorbell in our case).

Any ideas where to look? The platform was Raspberry Pi 2.

Hi,

Can you please share the faulty workspace ?
Which version of QLC+ were you using ?
Did you start creating this workspace with an old version of QLC+ ?

Thanks

I found out what causes this strange behaviour.

I had a Frame with 3 pages. On the first and second page I had a few copies of a button that was connected to an OSC event. I also had the same button on the workspace as a separate button. All these buttons had the same OSC binding.

During the show the OSC bindings worked only on page 1. After I moved to page 2 no OSC events triggered the button anymore. Pushing the button on the virtual console worked ok.

I still have the original file in the RPi and it is not here just now. I try to post it later.
