Reproducible bug -- Enttec Pro Plugin & programs

With the Enttec Pro Plugin set to a correct ComPort, build a program of sequences (two is all you need).

Set seconds of crossfade between sequences to any number greater than 0.

As the first sequence ends, there will be a ComPort denied error message and the second sequence will not start. Vixen must be restarted before any more sequences can be run.

The workaround is to lengthen or shorten your sequences and leave crossfade at 0.

KC,
I know your Very Very Very busy but is there anyway you can look at the DMX plugin. This locking issue seems to getting greater and greater as more of us go to dmx for our controls. Isnt there anyway if another sequence attempts to open a dmx port that is already open it can just us the existing connection. This will be very important once i start using triggers. because i may have a show running then and triger is launched it would get the com error and i would have to kill at restart vixen. I usually have to end task as vixen doesnt like to exit after this error.
 
I am now getting the following error everytime i leave my sequence running for and extended period of time.


See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
 
There seems to be an issue with all serial interfaces. KC and I have exchanged emails about it and we are thinking this might be an issue that has been there all along and has finally floated to the top. At the moment there isn't a fix. Te "work around" is to use 2.0.5, which was stable.
