See attached video. Only faulty in main script not audio decks.

Fire audio in script. Use fader to go to zero. Start new audio in main script and it starts at the full volume level, but the fader still stays at 0%. More info in video.

I'm seeing this also.   It isn't a visual problem.  More like it is ignored until you click on it.   If you click the top of the slider it will jump up about 1/4 the way up with a drastic volume reduction.

I wasn't at first so sure this is a bug. If the user wishes to control the audio output for the entire presentation (for whatever reason) without stopping the presentation as a whole, isn't this the way he/she should do it? HOWEVER! if that were the case, the next audio cue should not play if the volume had been reduced to 0. I have the same results that you do Kenno, and to overcome it, when I click the stop button on that control, I then move the volume slider to full again in advance of the firing of the next audio cue. Not that you should have to, but it works.

Well, in trying to find a workaround, I discovered another issue. The settings for the Fade Out, do not seem to work past the 3 second mark. I will turn this in this week end.

The audio decks work correctly. See what happens there. The slider should start again at '0' otherwise 1. It doesn't match the real volume 2. You can't grab the slider and smoothly fade out. 3. John needs something new to fix. LOL.

This one was pretty cut and dry. It didn't take much to figure it out. I'm a little disappointed in you Kenno. This is not your usual find. Either you are slipping or we are getting closer to the end of the big ones.

Yes I know it was a bit pathetic.

But I got up one morning as said to myself, "John deserves a break".  I know, I'm going soft.  But we still made sure you had something to take you through to morning tea time. But look out, keep your eyes peeled, because when you least expect it, WHAM!  I'll come from out of left field with no mercy. Just a gentle warning here. My soft side only runs so deep.

But hey, I like your last comment about getting closer to the end of the big ones. I can smell v5 coming on! The lull before the storm.

This behavior continues to exist in B220.
