Topic: No video on deck 3 and 4
VDJ v2025 b8502
I have a video I can load on deck 1 and 2 and it plays the video, but when I load the same video on deck 3 and 4, it only plays the audio and show the album art/tag as the video.
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance

Correction, it is not even loading the album art sometimes either. It is just black in the video panel

You have to make the bottom decks the left/right deck for the default skin and most others to show the video for those decks.

This is normally done on controllers with their deck switcher, but it isn't done by mouse click on the deck number or by the select verb.

So you need something like:

deck 3 leftdeck


Or

deck 4 rightdeck


Within your deck choosing logic to make the video for those decks show.

An e.g. for what I have for Alt + Tab (script gurus be gentle, it was just a quick markup to get the job done and it may be doable better/more concisely):


select & get_deck & param_mod 2 & param_cast & param_equal 0 ? right_deck : left_deck


This line of thought also applies for the FX rack/any other rack that only displays controls for a pair of left/right decks when using 4 decks as well.

Thanks. I usually have 4 deck controllers hooked up but was doing some video cueing just in software with just my laptop. Was about to test with a controller to see if I had the same issue :) as I have never ran into this but rarely just run the software w/o controller.
