The PC devices work if connected directly to the switcher. I am thinking it must be some sort of upgrade to the PC that is doing this. Also it could be time to get a new transmitter/Receiver. My theatre is at a school, so the last thing that the computer people think about is how something...

HDMI Cable from device to HDMI Transmitter.Transmitter and Receiver are connected with about 25m of Cat 6 Cable. Receiver is connected to our Roland VR50HD Switcher via HDMI cable which sends the signal to our Christie projector and Midas m32 soundboard Not sure of the brand name of the receiver...

Our stage has a cat6 cable run from stage to booth. It works great for our audio snake and we also use it to connect devices on stage into our switcher and projector. For some reason PC Device no longer work when connected to the system. We have a transmitter and a receiver with the cat 6 in...

I have installed 4 colorsource par lights as side lights in my theatre. When I power off the board, one of the lights stays on. Otherwise they work great. Putting a terminator on the las fixture didn't solve the problem. I replaced the terminator and nothing changed. I was thinking maybe a...

At the school theatre I manage, we invested in ETC Colorsource CYC fixtures. They have been great.

We have an Element 1 in our theatre. I ran into this issue a while back, but it has come up again. We have a house settings file that gets used to create our show files by doing a Save As... and renaming the file. A teacher did that today to create a show file for some students. Then they...

We use an imac in our tech booth to run powerpoints that then go to our switcher and then the projector. Our stage is about 20-25 yards from the booth. Can anyone recommend a good clicker that can be used to go from a presenter on stage to our booth. Last time I tried it, a regular apple...

Thanks Tim. Good to know it isn't just my problem. I just run the theatre at the school. Wouldn't survive as a teacher. I think they can 'insist' that something is done a certain way, but when it comes to presentation time, that's when you find out if they listened. If I know in advance...

I work at a theatre in a school. Most of our students are on macs. We use Apple TV to connect to our switcher and through to the projector. We are also able to connect via HDMI cable, but for students that like to walk around our stage while presenting, we need a wireless option and most of...

Our school is currently closed to students and staff as it is Spring Break, but staff will be returning on Monday at minimum for a meeting about how to proceed moving forward. I suspect that we will use the theatre for the meeting (with social distancing measures implemented, of coarse). If...

We are in the first week of our 2 week spring break. This is my time to get my spring break cleaning and maintenance done it the theatre. So far we have only lost one drama production for another school and 3 weeks of our church rental. The church may turn into a weekly webcast from the...

Thanks so much. Hitting the J+0 fixed it.

our remote has stopped working on our D12 HD-H Christie Projector. I have a back up that also doesn't work. Batteries were new on both. The projector is otherwise working well. Is it possible to unwittingly lock out your remote?
