That would be the year that I set different Twinkle rates on all my controllers and just used one sequence with all channels set to twinkle for two minutes and loop. Ah...memories. |

NO doubt LC.....talk about stress and high blood pressure!!!! I can SERIOUSLY say Michael may have saved my marriage with that player.  I think my wife was about two computer crash melt downs from saying....the lights go or I go......It would have been a lonely Christmas, but at least I would have had my lights.  Kidding of course.

Nervous?!
Guys, nervous was four Christmas seasons ago when Spectrum Scheduler wouldn't work. You young whipper-snappers don't know how easy you've got it now! Then this M-Class guy pops up and offers free of charge this scheduler that worked; and worked faster than Spectrum's! Yup. Lights On Logan Player. Thanks again, Michael! |

Chris - In just a few years from now you'll be a week ahead of schedule when he can help hang the lights
I must be very lucky this year. Had the lights out and show kicked off on schedule Thanksgiving night. Boreallas has been working perfectly for me (I manually start it each night before the show starts and shut it down after the show ends). Other than juggling firmware on the controllers till I got the look I expected the only problems I've experienced so far can all be attributed to operator error (me doing something stupid).
Because of the time it takes to cache the sequences I haven't been tweaking the sequences this year. The .avi files I'm using (doing video in all sequences this year) are huge and the cache files are mostly over 1GB in size.

Buckeye,
Well... you would see a DMX fixture working with Aurora.
More than likely though you'd find me out in the yard still hanging lights.

Good to hear the show is running well, now the only thing a Buckeye needs to worry about is Pasadena in 3 1/2 weeks..

You're teasing us now in a good way. So if we stop by we'll get to see all the new too features???
Just kidding.
Tks!
Joe
P.S. The show is running well.

Y'all should imagine being an Aurora developer... my show "started" (missing several elements due to running out of time) a week late and is running the very latest code right out of the development environment every night.
I'm never sure if I should leave the house or not.

Joe, I just read your post. I felt the same way this year. My show went up on Thanksgiving night for the first time. Our family and friends get together for the annual lighting of the house after dinner. They had not had a clue. We kept it a secret all year. The testing went well I had not seen the show at all in real time. It went off on time and wthout a hitch. I saw a few programing problems but no one else new. Everyone was in aye and did not know what to say. Big cheers and lots of how did you do that! Was the big whoraasssss! Good Luck!
I am sure it will be great!
Vin
