Help Needed FPP Connect Error

[Magilter]

Hello please help - I made a few changes to modules, I have re saved the sequences and uploaded them through FPP connect, Now I am getting an error message on my FPP - The sequence plays but the audio doesnt.

The patch.0 parts in the filename look weird,
I suspect the patch.0 is the name given during upload and is meant to be changed to the proper name afterwoods,

I would delete them from the playlist, and delete the files if theyre in the file manager and re-render and try uploading again,
(also check to see if FPP and Xlights are up to date, as may have had a bug in one of them as they did a bunch of FPP connect changes over last few months)

What verison of xLights and FPP are you running? As @JohnsRdChristmas mentions - I do recall some issues in the last couple of months where names are not correctly transferred on FPP Connect; and the .patch.0 is added on the end.

Just doing the Xlight update now
FPP is v6.3.2-2-gd9b87f73 (v6.3 branch)

I have updated both xlights and FPP - Re did the FPP connect and still getting the same error message.


All these errors started when I added null pixels into the display due to glitchy props. I created new sequences and re uploaded to them, when I did the new FPP connect upload is when I started getting the error messages. The sequence plays but there is no audio

The frustrating thing is I uploaded the show on around November 23, cause u made some changes to props adding null pixels, I re uploaded from FPP connect and now having these issues!! I hope someone can help, The Lights are running bit no audio

You can try renaming the sequence filenames and mp3 filenames, and readd them manually to a playlist, and should work in theory,
A pain, but will get you running.

Have you tried a manual upload not using FPP connect?

 

[Magilter]

Just Manual loaded - Didn't even know that was an option, it's up and running again. Thank you for getting me going again

Can you share a screenshot of the FPP connect window?

I had this issue consistently every upload about 4 months ago and I think changing the type from V2/Sparse to just V2 fixed it for me.

I had a patch0 file appear a few days ago. I think the upload had an issue over wifi or something. I deleted the file from FPP and tried again through fppconnect and it worked.

had this file naming issue myself, found out that my SD card was full.

Xlights didn't come up with any errors to let me know.
