Topic: Not Saving Settings

Questo argomento è obsoleto e potrebbe contenere informazioni obsolete o errate.

macOS Mojave 2017 MBP TB VDJ2020

VDJ will sometimes save setting and sometimes not. i'm new to the platform, so i don't know what it's supposed to do.

for example, the Performance Skin Video Rack always disappears. the sources are all reset. maybe that's normal? annoying.
but also just regular settings. i use the FaderStartStop pref as a diagnostic. i set it to No and every time i redstart it's back to Yes.
but then i set RPM to 4 Beats and it stays.

i have all correct permissions.
i even gave VDJ Full Disk Access.
i even made a symlink from a different folder to the Documents folder because i'm using iCloud Drive and it causes problems with Traktor as you have to d/l files and if the software doesn't get them right away it says file missing.

racks are reset that's normal, a oninit script could fix that for you.
faderstart, does your hardware offer the function? [that could be over riding settings on start]

i have MCX8000
i'm just on it now without controller.

ok, i got the Video Rack to automatically load on start.

CONTROLLERS>
Keyboard>

Key:
ONINIT
Action:
set '$rack' 1 & set '$video_rack' 1 & load_skin

and now my FaderStart setting is retained ?!

ok..so.. all my VFX have been reset.
how do i retain those setting?
i'm using the video to live stream a wedding, so i'm not interested in actually playing videos, but showing a wide camera of the ceremony and reception with an occasional slide show.

it is also retaining my logo settings.

vfx settings are a mixed bag, video fx slot isn't saved but you could oninit that, vfx slider/button settings should be saved but that can depend on what you have on what deck and if you have more than 1 instance [as they all have a common .ini file], again that could be oninit fixed. the one thing [i think] you have no oninint fixing abilities is more than 1 instance and position boxes

well.. i'll take what i can get.

where can i find the video variables i can ONINIT?

look up the
video_fx
actions in app, for deck specified, prefix with
deck X
there's also
effect_string "fxname" Z [Z being string number]
for string based params

so?

& Deck 1 video_fx_select "Strobe" & video_source_select "webcam" & video_transition_select "Fade"
& Deck 2 video_fx_select "Strobe" & video_source_select "webcam" & video_transition_select "Fade"
& Deck 3 video_fx_select "Strobe" & video_source_select "webcam" & video_transition_select "Fade"
& Deck 4 video_fx_select "Strobe" & video_source_select "webcam" & video_transition_select "Fade"

only 1 transition slot available [and that's deck master so no need to spec a deck], [I think that's also true of source select]
and I'm guessing you're wanting the fx on deck master

& deck master video_fx_select "Strobe" & video_source_select "webcam" & video_transition_select "Fade"

lots of ways you could want this could be set so I'm "erm-ing" a bit

i very much appreciate your "erm-ing"

so that worked wonderfully for the Master deck.
but i do want to set the vex for decks ABCD. do call them DeckA? what's the syntax?
