Re: [QLab] Emergency Blackout Cue?

[Angus Turner]

In QLab 3 there's a panic button which fades out everything, you can then start the next cue. Not sure if this is what you're looking for.

Hi!

I'm pretty new to QLab and I'm designing projections for my school show as well as for a community theatre production. For my school show, we are showing a pre-recorded video of the person on stage and they will be singing along live, kind of like a live video feed to the projector (I told them abou the live video cue, but they already have a student set to record the video). Because this is bound to go wrong, I am planning to an emergency blackout cue that will drop the video feed incase we get behind or ahead. Does anyone know how I would execute this and then go to right to the next cue after the video was supposed to end? I would imagine using a hotkey or something? Thanks, Tommy

You could also make a cue sequence that fades in a black image on the top layer, and assign that to a hotkey. You could even make it autofollow to a Stop cue that stops the video underneath the black.

Do this on a second cue list and assign it a trigger

The audio fade is optional.

Use the Disarm cue. Toss it at the end of your cue list (or in another cue list) and set your video cue as the target. Then set the hotkey of that disarm cue to whatever hotkey you want.

Ta da!

You'll still have to "GO" through it, but it won't execute

Create a second Arm cue with a second hot key if you want to be able to re-arm the cue ... if you accidentally hit the disarm.
