Parameter tweaks to fix "System timer accuracy = BAD" ?
Posted: Tue Aug 09, 2016 6:57 am
Ran into this on one of the computers I've tried running QLC on with Open DMX. The sync is horrid on this computer. My show falls out of sync with the audio almost immediately.
I noticed it's possible to change certain parameters for QLC (DMX USB Enttec Open frequency and perhaps Master Timer frequency) but how do I know what I should be changing them to? I presume the goal would be to tweak these to sync the speeds to that of the computer that is running it, but what system specs or benchmark info should I be looking at to determine optimal frequencies? I'd rather not play with this through simple trial-and-error.
Also, is 'GOOD' the best result for "System timer accuracy" when looking at info for a DMX I/O device or is there an 'EXCELLENT' or 'PERFECT?'
