Fixture Definition and visualiser problem

Post by Quentin »

Hi - I'm a fairly experienced DMXIS user and am just trying out the demo version of ShowBuddy. I'm used to writing fixture definitions and have successfully imported these into SB, except one will not display any "light" in the visualiser. The fixture is one of those cheap "party ball" things with 7 channels. The problem is that it is wired with the three colour faders in the order BRG. If I write the fixture definition in RGB order the visualiser works - but shows the wrong colours. In BRG order it doesn't work! Is there a way round this please?

Upon investigation, this is a minor bug in the fixture parser. Most common combinations of RGB channels are supported, but I missed BRG!

It will be fixed in the next available release.
