Rebuild fails when you are not running HLS in Admin mode and a rebuild needs to be accomplish. XP --- User -- ADMIN. Win7 -- USER --- ADMIN --- AND Right Click on HLS icon - select "Run as Admin". We can thank Microsoft for security requirement. Joe

Sorry - HLS works with 2 channel stereo only. HLS directly plays the audio - does not send it to another device to play -- that is why HLS's lights and audio never get out of sync. Joe

Sorry - been out of pocket I tried to read the previous posts but got lost. Can you restate you question with specific details. HLS todate is pretty bug free. The issues seem to be how people want to use the tool -- different from how I intended it to be used. Thanks. Joe

I suspect it is the size of your Audio File. Each channel has a lot of data PER time tic. HLS was NOT designed for an unlimited size audio file --- I expected worst case to be around 5 minutes. I currently have 500M or 1/2Gig allocated to work a single channel during save and open operations...

Deleting effects can take time many were complaining about. I delayed removal the low-level removal areas so as to spped up the editing process --- but there must give and take in life - no difference in HLS. When you want to perform "OutPut" or "Preview" --- I ask you you wish to perform any...

David - not to hi-jack your thread - but I've been considering something similar. I will ask for interest below because it is similar to your intent. I'm thinking of a new capability for HLS that may help people doing synchronized displays (like neighbors, multi-media, etc). HLS could have...

How are you getting to your controller? COM port? USB device? I add NEW output devices when someone asks and is willing to work with me in the hardware testing since I don't have the hardware. Let me know. Joe

HLS is designed with the following limits. Max Channel count 30,000 Max Universes - 75 Max PixelPlanes - none - just bounded by Universe and Channel count. A sequence 30,000 channels will play in a show all day long on a standard PC with 4 gig of memory. You can play a show with...

Please explain more. The Music Box Dancer should work. Some m3p to wave converters put codec info in the wav file and I can't deal with that. When you say it does'nt work - can you post the loading info I provide in the wav dialog so I can see what may be going on with your computer. Thanks...
