Good evening, this also happened last night on the first night of the display.
Setup : Laptop running windows, F16V4 with a F16V3 daisy changed using an ethernet cable for data and xschedule.
In testing all props worked, with both controllers as expected. However when it was "show time" had audio but no lights.
What have I done :
Ran the sequence in xlights with the V4 and a test string operated as expected.
Using Test on the V4 web page selected the appropriate port test string lit. Good
Test with Test in xlights again test string lit.
Did a batch render of all sequences, then replaced FSEQ file with updated file, again selected the sequence in xschedule, play no lights.

Problem when xschedule plays a sequence no output from either controller, but we do have audio.

Any suggestions Thanks
Burto
 
Hi Mike,
Have only had one playlist in xschedule up to now, this year went for tune to sign as well.
Having set up a playlist and schedule before only needed to research the how of a background sequence.

Watched a video on the process, took notes and gave it a go. Then had the problem as described; having exhausted all other avenues decided to scrap the background sequence. Well bugger me that fixed the problem.
Obviously I stuffed up the priority setting and the background sequence was overwriting the playlist.
Solution Put the tune to sign effects in every sequence., and run with one playlist in xschedule.
Thanks for the enquiry
