In editor I create a 5 second scene - full on, no fade, just plain and simple on. The scene will play for EXACTLY 5 seconds and shut off in editor as it should.
Add that same scene in a fresh timeline (with nothing but a single timeline active hopefully eliminating any potential lag) and place it at the 1 sec mark (with the loop properties set to off) and the timeline shows a 5 second clip that starts at 1 sec and stops at 6 just as it should.
However, the light stays on for almost an extra second longer no matter what light I use. I've tried every variation of lengths (saved in editor and changed file to update in timeline) but still every scene plays almost 1 second longer in timeline than it does in editor. There is no lag starting the fixture/scene. It starts just as it should and start and stop points are represented correctly in the timeline view. Nothing appears to overlap even when zoomed in 100% but the real world fixture stays on longer and does overlap into the next scene.
I can work around this when programming but this is causing scenes and DMX commands to overlap which really gets crazy when more complex scenes or even simple fades are involved.
Anyone else dealing with this?
Is this a timeline glitch in the software or do I have an issue on my end?
Thanks so much!
