Please try the new v3.0.14.34 !

Hi Bernd,

I've been testing the latest update and things are better but not 100%.

I've tested on our 'live assist' PF system (which is a Professional Edition Version v3.0.14.34).
Same settings:
Program Mixing Time: 1000
2 Overlays (combined) Overlay Mixing Time: 0
First overlay start type: EndAt Type: SCRIPT

See video how this is working flawless, 4 seconds fading and then started playing overlay.

Now our other PF system (Enterprise Version v3.0.14.34), again same settings.
NOTICE: only difference:
Starttype: EndsAt Type: ADVERTSLOT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jadzSVlqp70 (PF Enterprise, starttype: AdvertSlot)

Could not test an advertslot on our professional edition because it has no advert manager.
Now it is fading 2 seconds and then it is starting.

So on a EndsAt Script it is fading 4 seconds and a EndsAt AdvertSlot it is fading 2 seconds?!
What do I need to change to make it also fade 4 seconds in EndsAt Advertslot?

That is my only conclusion I could think of because all settings of both systems are exactly the same!!

Are you really sure, that both mixing settings are really exactly the same on both PCs (when clicking on the 'Mixing per Media Type...' button and selecting the related media entry type!)?
And are also really both (all) Overlay 'Mixing Time' values identical - also for the 2 combined overlays?
As otherwise I can see no reason for it.

The StartType is 'EndsAt', 'Soft', 'Fixed' etc.
The source (Script or AdvertSlot) shouldn't matter at all, as this only determines what is playing in the advert slot.

If you can not find any difference, then we might need to do a TeamViewer session.

Hi,

The settings on both pc's are the same! However, I've tested it again and now i'm getting the same results on both pc's!
So overlay mixing time = 0 is 2,5 sec fade.
It's acceptable for me but we want to change the 'flow' manual.

If I set the mixing time to 1000 it gives me 1 sec more fading time, which is good, because I want it to fade more before start.

But if the overlay is playing the last track of the overlay the audio is cut off, so I need to use for that mixing time = 0.

Can it not be possible to create a mixing time for the begin of the overlay and the end??

For example: Mixing time in = 1000 and mixing time out = 0

Or can you adjust the overlayplayer that it won't cut off audio soon as the program starts but it mixes smooth in the playlist/program??

The audio is never cut off ! Is is only faded out according to the mixing settings.

But I will take a look to provide an extra mixing out time value....

Please check the new v3.0.14.35 - it now adds a new 'Mixing Time out' option for overlays, which then allows you to define individual mix-in and mix-out settings!

Thank you very much Bernd for your help, patience and adjustments to PF.
It is working very well, set up our own individuel mixing setting for in and out!
