Sujet Not Saving Settings

Ce topic est ancien et peut contenir des informations obselètes ou incorrectes.

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]

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

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

& 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"

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?
