Show Cue System

Using SCS 11.10.7 on Windows 11, if I preview a video and set its size and position, the actual size and position of the video on screen when running the cue live are different. The result is that I have to set the size and position of the video image by trial and error. This bug is identical to one...

Hmm, now that I look at this more closely, I realise that you don't currently have any examples of a function with two arguments. I suppose I just assumed that the second and later arguments would follow the same format as the first, especially as currently there is no mention of & in the SCS docume...

Hi Mike, I have recently been playing with triggering vMix from SCS but found that any control send message having multiple parameters would not work if I followed the examples in the SCS documentation. For example the following command: FUNCTION SetText Input=3 Value=My Replacement Ticker Text does...

Hi Mike, I hope you are well. (Socially-distanced) Christmas show time again and this year we are running with 2 additional monitors: one to project images on stage, the other to present show intro and outro slides to our live stream audience. When developing the cue file on my home PC, with no addi...

Setting up my environment to reproduce the issue I found that the mic on and mic off cues now worked as they are supposed to. On further investigation I think the problem was that in the SoundMan Server control panel I went and selected UA101 rather than SCSASIO from the drop-down panel rather than ...

I have been experimenting with using the trial version of SoundMan-Server to control the turning on and off of a live microphone attached to a Roland UA101 but have run into some issues. I installed and set up SMS as per the instructions in the SCS Help file. Next I played a standard audio cue to ch...

Hi Mike, I tried increasing the pre-open count to 30 but got the attached error - presumably because my PC had run out of memory. This also happened when I reverted to 11.7.0 Fortunately the producers have provided a backup option for this show using Powerpoint so I will be OK this weekend but it is...

Hi Mike, Similar problem to the last one I reported only this time it is affecting video cues. I am using SCS 11.7.1rc3(x64) I have a video-heavy show next weekend and the cue file stops after the last pre-loaded video, showing all subsequent videos as not loaded. Strangely, although the Max No. of ...

Hi Mike,

I am just glad that you were able to find the fault and fix it. As we have a work around we are not in a hurry for the fix and will wait until the next release.

Thanks once again
Stuart

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am using the version 11.7.0.1 that you created for me a couple of weeks ago to resolve the issue with disabled sub-cues.

Hi Mike, Here's an interesting one. We are doing a show this week and during the first performance the playlist that we had set to play music during entry of the audience stopped playing. The operator thought the program/computer had crashed and didn't know how to recover, so the first half of the s...

Hi Mike,

I have just downloaded 11.7.0 and found that if I have a cue containing a disabled sub-cue, when I play that cue in the main window, on completion it remains as the next cue to play and the show does not advance to the following cue.

Best wishes
Stuart

We had already been playing cues for several hours when the fault occurred. Fortunately it has't happened again since but, with our show coming up next week, I am still slig...

I too witnessed something similar yesterday when mentoring a new sound operative at our theatre for a show next week. We have just installed the 64 bit version of 11.5.2.1 on a Toshiba PC running Windows 8.1. Output is to two pairs of channels on a USB connected Behringer FCA610. Unfortunately I was...

When editing a cue file, initially the current position marker in the audio graph and the green Completed slider behave themselves normally i.e. when you press the Test button both the slider and current position marker advance with the playing cue. However, after performing editing on the cue file ...
