QLC+ extremely unstable, freezes every other minute

    I've used qlc+ for a couple of days with just some minor glitches and hang-ups. But recently, probably after i started using it with TouchOSC, it has become extremely unstable. It freezes up and quits at least every 5 minutes when in use. It mostly freezes when I use TouchOSC, which worked fine before, and when I try to set any audio-control widget to controll a function or another widget.

    I'm using a Mac mini 1,8ghz core2duo with a Dmx king Micro and a dimmerpack.

    Anyone know what might have caused this instability?

    Best,
    Oskar

    Oskar,

    please post your operating system (I assume OS X) and QLC+ version (4.6.1?).

    Oh yes I forgot.

    Yes 4.6.1 and Mac OS X 10.6.8

    Unfortunately, 4.6.1 contains few known crashes (and some unknown). The known crashes were fixed in the development version, so please wait for the next release.

    If you can provide crash report/core dump, then we may try to figure out if yours is a known one, or a new one that has to be fixed. However, I can't tell you how to produce the report.

    If you can post your workspace here, that can also help.

    Hello, I also face an unstable QLC+ when using the audio-control widget. When adding the widget, it works fine, but (after a while), when trying to (re-)open/adjust the audio widget settings, QLC+ crashes most of the times. Even after a new start-up of QLC+, loading the saved file/show again, not able to (re-)open/adjust the audio widget... and when trying to do so, driving QLC+ to another crash.

    I'm using the latest QLC+ version 4.6.1 and running Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks

    PS - sometimes after starting QLC+, my laptop embedded mousepad/keyboard freezes (does not respond anymore), though the BT-wireless mouse and external USB-keybord still keeps on working fine.

    On top of that I have a question on how to set QLC+ to listen to the laptop's audio input (eg iTunes playing), instead of the Mic input ? Tried every possible checkbox at the input/output setting, without any success. Any hints ?

    Thanks.
