Ghosting? - of sorts

[tharding]

I know they tell you it isn't but...

Could it be a programming glitch where that layer is sitting at 5% or so in another cue so it is leaving a slight transparent ghost?

Does the HOG III output screen confirm that there is no level to that layer?

Does it still do it if you disconnect the DMX and use the HUD to recreate the same cue?

When you see the ghosting clip, if they changed the file at that point, can you see the image change?

I have inadvertently recorded a layer in a cue when I knocked the intensity while adjusting another parameter. Especially easy on the III as there is the intensity wheel next to the keyboard. Didn't notice until I saw the ghost over another image.

Cheers

i think its a feature i have been working on.

which doesnt seem to work correctly on early machines. possibly.

i was trying to do trails in mixes.

it almost works.

[samsc]

are all your trails parameters set to zero?

i have been working on making this work in the submixes
this didnt used to work in keystoned sub-mixes

Well... as usual... the problem was between the desk and the chair....

This didn't turn out to be a catalyst problem on further investigation. (Thankfully)

The client had 2 problems:
1) - Dodgy DMX cable
2) - Hog III programming issues, resulting from using 'record-remove' in a specific cue, coupled with using a blend layer 2 effect in an earlier cue1 - due to tracking, the result was this ghosting effect.

With a bit of re-programming and DP2000 reset - all is well...

Thanks for the suggestions though

i have been fiddling with this - so i could have broken something too.
