I'm getting a corrupted program file error if I use the delay Outgoing option.

original program with no delay:

Name3=scene 2 init Ch16
Incoming3=Pres080000
Outgoing3=MID2MIDD0007scene 1MIDA00010010nanoKONTROL CTRLF0424F000104001F14giF7
Options3=Actv01Stop00OutO00StMa0009scene set0001gi=1

after adding an Outgoing delay:

Code: Select all

Name3=scene 2 init Ch16
Incoming3=Pres080000
Outgoing3=MID2MIDD0007scene 1MIDA00010010nanoKONTROL CTRLF0424F000104001F14giF7
Options3=Actv01Stop00OutO00StMa0009scene set0001gi=1Dlay100:Millis

but I get an error msg on load:

Error while loading preset "Main", Translator "scene 2 init Ch16":
corrupt options: 100:Millis

The translator is reset to "no delay" but not written to file until another Apply is clicked. Otherwise, it'll keep loading with the old error.

Thanks!

Hi DeRoc,

I could reproduce this problem. It always happens when using rules and delayed outgoing action in one translator. I've already fixed it in the development version, will be available with the next beta.

Thanks!

Great, you're already on it then.
Thanks for the quick reply!

RELATED PROBLEM: The radio option always resets to "delay in seconds" after clicking a different tab then clicking the Outgoing tab again.
It doesn't happen when a translator is clicked in the list, though.
NEXT DAY: Now, cannot reproduce the problem at all....

PROBLEM FOUND! In the translator editor, changing a port in the Incoming or Outgoing Specific Ports list will always reset the "Delay outgoing" radio button to "delay in seconds" when you click another tab then return to Outgoing (including another translator). You have to click one of the buttons then "Apply" immediately for it to stick. Changes are usually saved automatically when you leave a translator, but this affects all translators in all presets as well so you have to be aware when entering a different Outgoing tab to set the radio button, and "Apply".

It seems the file has to be saved and reopened for it to stop happening in the other translators.
This is reproducible.
Thanks!

Florian - Please excuse me for bumping my own thread.
The PROBLEM FOUND in the previous post confirms what was happening to me when editing a translator. Perhaps you already came across this when fixing the Rules problem.
Thank you!

ALSO just noticed it starts happening after editing an outgoing midi message
... (EDIT: actually, clicking on almost anything in the editor triggers it.)
