When I place a 'Reset Track' command into the showtime timeline I am getting shutter issues when playing sections of a that showtime show in the 'Live' section of showtime.
The section that has the 'Reset Track' just before it on the time line will play at the click of the button in Live but only most of the time, sometimes it will just do nothing. Then the next time you click the button it will play again.
If I move the 'Reset Track' into the same position but into the FX section of the timeline (just as you would with a zoom up from dot for instance), this does not happen (and you no longer hear the shutter opening and closing)
*This does not happen with all lasers only one. I have 2 Arctos 10 watt white light lasers and the other one does not do this*
The reason I am inserting a reset track into the timeline is because the write out effect and some other FX will not work unlesss reset track precedes them on the timeline.
1. Should I be inserting reset track at all or is this just for the end of a show to blank the laser.
2. When inserting reset track, should this be done using the blanking frame, or can you just drag reset track onto the timeline direct.
3. Is this an issue with the laser shutter (Arctos 10 watt white light) and not Pangolin at all.
I need some help here as the show is unstable at the moment.
Plenty of other shows I look at seem to have reset track throughout the timeline. Any ideas?
