		Release Notes for Onyx

4.9.1253 (21/07/2023)

Notices:

  • due to some fixtures and nodes not working at all when Art-Net and/or sACN sync is turned on, they are now turned off by default (also in existing shows that didn’t have the setting altered). Turn them on when you notice a lag between universes.
  • click track beat detection appears broken and will be fixed for next build (because some of below fixes are rather critical, we decided not to wait for this specific fix)

Added options dropdown for library and beats editor views (library tabs can now be added as a view from the new “Library” Windows tab)
Fixed holding playback buttons on a touch screen to just hold instead of triggering the right click gesture (popping up the options window)

This bugs still not working
Hi use a soft form a pc (Packet Sender software) WIN11 to send messages to other PC Win10
If I use Manager I can see how it work fine receiving and trigger QL
restart PC - Receiver to clear memory and setup Onxy-PC with same settings on Manager
 it not work
Could be a utility to have a window receiver messages from external input.

Hello,

You should indicate exactly what messages you are sending. Doing a 1 on 1 implementation is not possible so we add commands/messages as needed.
Also keep in mind that using both at the same time could result in problems.

The USB power issue for my M-Touch’s is still happening. I’ve carefully double checked the Device Manager settings to make sure that power savings is not enabled on any USB hubs/ HID USB devices and the Advance power plan settings.

I was using two computers, each with an M-Touch acting as the license key. (FYI, recently aquired more USB license keys. My last OneKey had been lost or stolen. I would prefer not to need USB license keys. They can get lost or stolen. Resolume’s 30 day reactivation is fine.)

Mid show, one M-Touch or the other will stop affecting Onyx. If I unplug the M-Touch and reconnect the USB then the led lights on the M-Touch glow slightly. I can take that nonresponsive M-Touch and connect it to the other computer and it works fine. But it won’t work on the nonresponsive computer unless I restart Onyx. So I have to switch the Artnet output to the other computer, restart Onyx on the computer with the nonresponsive M-Touch USB and reconnect. Then the M-Touch works again.

This would be less annoying if it were simply a matter of disconnecting and reconnecting the USB to the M-Touch. Why is it required to restart Onyx before the M-Touch works again? Can that be fixed?

Also, the other features are limited when it loses the M-Touch as the USB license key.

This issue has also been reported on Facebook by another user.

For now, you could look at the Onyx Manager documentation.
The current build includes support for the following commands:

  • GQL
  • RQL
  • PQL
  • GTQ
  • SetQLLevel
  • SQL

The next build will add these:

  • RAO
  • RAQLDF
  • RAQLODF
  • RAQLO
  • RAQL
  • CLRCLR

Hello,

I want to know if it is feasible to make the sliders in the Dylos menu—such as Speed, Master, etc.—more contrasty. Outdoor, during daylight hours, it is quite difficult to see and make adjustment on those.

Thank you.

16

thx.

17

Please add group selection,and also lamp on ,lamp off, reset of fixtures very useful on UDP packets!

Hi!

I want to install Beta 4.9.1253, but it seems like I need to install 4.9.1252 on my console first

‘‘This build requires the 4.9.1252 OS on consoles. Update to this once 1252 is installed’’

Where can I find the download link for 1252? The forum thread is closed and there is not link anymore.

Thanks!

Onyx won’t share the Microphone with Resolume. I have to connect another microphone, besides the one built into my laptop in order to use audio input in both Onyx and Resolume.

Is this something that can be fixed, so that they share the mic?

22

the 1252 OS is in the same folder in the link above
