MagicQ Software Change Log

98 / 121

65.1.4

Show file name auto increment

MagicQ now supports auto incrementing show file names. To start an auto incrementing show file, save a show file with the last
part of the name set as _001. When you next press SAVE SHOW, MagicQ will suggest saving to _002. Press ENTER to accept,
or edit the name to save to a different name.

Note that in order to avoid accidentally saving to incrementing files, all 3 digits must be present - _1 or _10 is not supported.
When the number _999 is reached MagicQ will not auto increment and will request a new name.

Please note that over use of the auto increment feature will lead to high disk usage. It is important to clear out old versions once
the show is finished.

To delete all old revisions of the current show file, go to File Manager, and press SHIFT and REMOVE OLD REVS. This will
remove all revisions of the current show file that have a lower revision number. It will not remove the current show file.

65.1.5

Enabling / Disabling Zones from Cue Stack Macros

It is now possible to enable and disable zones (groups of Universes configured in Setup, View DMX I/O, page right) using Cue
Stack Macros. To enable a zone use the macro H5 and to disable a zone user the macro H6. For example to enable zone 2.

H5/2

To disable zone 2:

H6/2

65.1.6

Other Changes

Modified behaviour of Swap mode and Execute Window. Cue Stacks activated from the Execute Window (or Stack Store
Window) now operate as if faders have been put to 100% rather than flash buttons. Cue Stacks activated from the Execute
Window will not cause other playbacks to swap unless they are set as Flash always swaps. ###0001473

Support for include of just the FX from a Playback using SHIFT + INCLUDE.

Added extra protection to try to avoid losing settings if the console disc experiences a complete power off or reset from the white
button.

65.2

Bug Fixes

Fixed problem with reassertion of FX in playbacks.

Macro 100 was not working. #0003917.

Fixed problem with Cue timing when using Mini Wing. On some systems the system tick rate would be half the required rate
causing fade times to take twice as long. #0000702, #0003620, #0003864

Fixed problem with Grab show in versions 1.5.6.0 and 1.5.6.1

Fixed problem with using the Edimax USB Wifi interface on MagicQ Pro 2010 consoles - this was broken in v1.5.4.0 to 1.5.6.0.
Requires kernel to be upgraded to kernel 3.9.2.0 - this is included as part of 1.5.6.2. Setup, View System, View Status, Change
Software and then select the number associated with kernel3.9.2.0.

Fixed problem when sending patch from Capture to MagicQ. #0003914

Fixed problem with copying groups to Playbacks. #0003828.
