Patch Back 8.1.3 to 8.1.1

Post by DoubleDub » Wed Jun 09, 2010 9:16 pm

Hi,
may be this has been discussed already?
I've got big problems with version 8.1.3 (still 8.1.4 beta does not help).
I was little bit hasty to switch to 8.1.3 :roll: and at the first glance everything was working fine. I converted all my current projects to the new file format. But afterwards I experienced big problems with several "out of memory" and crash down cases and could not run my current projects without ongoing CPU tripping. The easiest way to crash 8.1.3 was to run two (demanding) VSTis and then open Live preferences, adios.
Still believing, that the fault would be on my side I upgraded my CPU (Quad) and the memory (4GB) (yes everything was running smoothly with Duo and 2 GB before :o ).
But problems remained.
I remembered the old installation of 8.1.1. which I did not de-install and voila - everything runs like a porsche.
So I will not blaim the development of Live and who had the inspiring idea to switch the file format within one version of software. I would ask the company very kindly if there is any possibility to patch back projects/sets to 8.1.1. to not dump half a year of work.

Hi DoubleDub,

unfortunately there´s no automatic patcher, which would allow to revert the file format.
The problems you report should not occur with 8.1.3., CPU & memory usage should normally not differ.
Could you send an email to [email protected], include a bugreporting .alp file which should automatically be generated after the crash, and a copy of one of the problematic sets (.als file is enough, no audio files required)?

Best,
Jörg

Hi Jörg,
So I did already send such a report but no reply the last 14 days.

Now I prepared a new bugreport with a plain set (2 Arturia Jupiter V, opening the Live references gives a crash and out of memory message). Same configuration in 8.1.1 is running with no problems.
.alp, .als and screenshot have been sent to the mentioned email address. Don't know if you could have a short look on that since I don't think they will help me out of the situation.

regards
DD
