playback test set: all eClips sessions frozen on first frame, all eSampler sessions working properly
thanks, this was what I meant, this looks fine, no issue printed
btw, do you mean that the eSamplers do not freeze on the first frame and all others device do? very puzzling. And for @charless the recent eSampler test works and for @abanze it doesn’t… weird.
Alright, I have thought of new test.
I would be grateful if you guys could to the following:
-
Open a new Ableton Live set
-
Add an eClips to an audio track
-
close the EboSuite window
-
navigate to the EboSuite folder in your user library
-
press cmd+shift+. to show the hidden files
-
right click on .Ebosuite and select show package contents
-
go to the folder Contents->MacOS and double click on the .EboSuite located there
(this will show us debug prints from the EboSuite app in a terminal window) -
unpack the following file and add it to the live set (doesn’t really matter where)
ShowMessages.amxd.zip (1.9 KB) -
now right click the titlebar of the eClips device and select ‘Open Max window’ (so don’t open the device for editing!)
(this will show us all the messages sent from Ableton to our application) -
now unpack and add this videofile to a clipslot on the track with eClips (in session view, not arrangement view) and press play
TestFile.zip (2.8 MB) -
gather everything that is printed in the max for live window in a text file
-
gather everything that is printed in the terminal window of the EboSuite app in another text file
-
send them to me at timo@ebosuite.com or upload them here (you might need to zip them first) and will start puzzling with it!
I hope that was clear, let me know if a step needs clarification
Sorry for all the work we ask of you, we hope to reproduce your issue ourselves soon as well but until then we have to rely on your input.

correct. eClips freeze. eSamplers play.
will do this in the morning

bonus check:
with nesa’s eClips test (e.g. eclips-haptest Project) does the situation change if you turn warping off and play the clip?

It doesn’t change, only plays first frame

thanks! I have an idea now what is going on, here is a test version of the EboSuite app which might work for you (if my hypothesis is correct):
- navigate to the EboSuite folder in your user library
- press cmd+shift+. to show the hidden files
- rename the .EboSuite app to something like .EboSuiteOld
- unpack the zip and move the containing .EboSuite app to the EboSuite folder in your user library
- try it out! (e.g. with the demosong or the test sets that Nesa made)
I am very curious!!..
ok give me one hour and I tell you
crash, MacOs can’t test this app doesn’t content malware. I give permissions and it works!!!

Do I understand that eclips and others work properly with this test version?
(after giving the app permission to run)

OK! Tried M1TestApp and everything in the demo is working. However, when I load a video I get the attached screen shot msg. Restarting Ebosuite from the eClips window solves the issue. Unfortunately, I have to restart ebosuite every time I load a new clip. Almost 100% thank you so much.
Hi CharlesS, this is a normal Ableton dialog since Ableton itself doesn’t support video playback in session view (EboSuite makes this possible), please press “don’t show again” and OK. Does it make it work normally after that?
Ahhh, didn’t know that as I’ve never seen that msg before. Easy enough to disable the msg. Yes, so far it works normally after that. Thank you!
