Hi there .... I am one bit of information away from having a great cuelux set up.
Here is my complete set up.
Windows xp shuttle pc running cuelux with 2 x mirrored 20 inch touch screens, bcf 2000 controller (Main show console.)
I also have a back up in place : Windows vista netbook with ohm 64 midi controller.
I load the completed programmed show from the main to back up. no problem . I have a usb switch , which lets me run 3 devices from 2 pc's. this works great . The cue cable , keyboard , and trackball. The midi controller as it turns out does not like the switch !!! this is ok because you have written a great map for the OHM 64.... and unlike the bcf 2000 , the ohm 64 is usb powerd.
So should I have a software crash on the main console , i press one button and i am on the other back up console. All of this works great , I just need to make sure there is a safety cue live on the back up , so I don't go to black at the gig.
I also run media servers from cuelux over artnet to drive video eye candy ... although there are no personality files for Arkaos / Hippo/
I use simple mode in Arkaos MM and Arkaos DMX. The switch works great for this too. because it stops broadcasting on artnet on the main console and starts on the back up ....with no conflicts !!!!
So here is the missing piece to a perfect show set up with backups.!!!! Tracking backup . I was wondering if there was a midi fix for this. Both the bcf 2000 and ohm 64 have midi in and out .... I remember in the old days with hog 2's you could run them in sync / midi notes in on one hog 2 , and midi notes out of the other hog.
I realize you are very busy writing code at the moment .... and this should be way way down the list... but i was just seeing if you guys could try it first on your controllers and let me know....
Thanks again for all you help / its a great product and getting better every day..
Simon
