Hi LJ's

i noticed a weird effect after update to 4.13.1 GIT (Raspberry Pi):
in a chaser with scenes with different values on a channel,
in between is a scene with 0 on the channel.
Instread to set the vlaue to "0" it is seted to "255".
I noticed also that the same scene with "0" value twice in chaser, it work correct and
set the right value of "0", but first occurance is always setted to 255.
On Windows with Version 4.13.0 evrything works propper....

The first thing that comes into my mind is that LTP logic is in play. Albeit, why 255?
Is the fixture definition identical on your Pi and your Windows?
If you want us to investigate further, please send in your project (and custom fixture profiles).

Hello,
thaks for your reply.
Yes, it looks like it has somthing to do with the channel fader config.
I tried HTP and LTP both with same issue. After i unchecked the "CanFade" then it
works like desired.
But the question : Why it works now different in Version 4.13.1 from Github....
My project file is very old and up to now everything was fine for my needs...

B.t.w. i think the default HTP and LTP decision comes from fixture definition like Intensity or Effect etc....
I never care about and created the fixtuire definition like i think is the right property for the channels, since most are self explained.
Now i need to revise all this settings.

Another one that experienced the same problem (v4.13 build for Rasberry Pi)
Chasers no longer working like before.
Followed the tip of disabling 'can fade' on on my color channels (LTP) and now it again works like before.
Before it seemed to behave like HTP (while the individual scenes work just fine).
Unsure if I like the workaround. I would like to be able to fade.

FYI: On Windows it doesn't seem to be an issue. With the installation of qlcplus_4.13.0_arm64.deb (found in the QLC reserved area) on Raspberry Pi 5 running Bookworm there are clearly issues.
