    Posted: 05 Dec 2010 at 11:37pm
This is my second year with the Aurora software, last year the show ran perfect no problems for the whole month but this year no such luck and I am hoping someone has some ideas.
 
This year I have my show set up in the scheduler and I starts just fine but then after about 30mins to 40mins the lights start to skip and drag behind. A simple reset of the program solves the problem but it is a pain having to watch the show. It is never the same song that does it either just depends on the time.
 
By skip I mean the song will be playing and you can hear the music but the lights arent working then they flash then catch up and continue to work for a few minutes.
 
If anyone has an idea I would appreciate it.
 
Thanks,
CMurray

Update to ver 1.069
Update controller firmware to Ver 2.0 for ACx8s, and bare minimum Ver1.14 (do NOT use 1.19) for ACx16s.

I have 1.068 for Aurora and when I try to update from the download page the link that says 1.069 downloads the 1.068 zip file. Is there another download location for the newest version and I am using Ver1.17 on all my DCX16 controllers and don't plan on updating to the Ver1.19 until D-Light gets all the kinks worked out with that one yet.

The firmware update for DCx16s has been out for almost a year. I think its safe to use.

As for the bad(?) link to 1.069, hopefully that will get rectified soon.

Sorry thats my bad I had DCX16 on the brain as I am having problems with it. I Am using all ACX16 in the show until I get the DCX16 fixed. The ACX16 are running Ver1.17 and I don't want to risk the update to Ver1.19 that just came out. That is my fault.
 
Have others seen a problem with the Aurora 1.068 will the new update fix the problems I am having?
