Autostart "show" with reboot

Postby DJDoug » 20 Jul 2016, 19:54

We just purchased new system with Titan One. Love it. Trying to make it easier for bar staff to run basic features.
I put a wallpaper image on the PC Startup screen pointing to the icon that starts Titan, but it starts empty and the staff won't know how to load our "show".
Is there a way to autoload a show when Titan starts on the PC?
I don't want them to have to DISK / LOAD SHOW / LOAD MACROS...etc

Thanks much!!

It will automatically load the last show that was being used but there is currently no way to automatically run cues etc.

However, this is a feature has been asked for by a number of people and hopefully will be possible in a future version.

Oddly enough, ours won't load the previous show. It says "unable to load show" causing us to have to go through the load process.
Any idea why? Is there a value somewhere that will force the last show load?

No, there are no settings. It should always do it. All I can think is that there is a permissions problem where it can't write to the folder where it is trying to save when you close the application.

Perhaps a safer solution might be to create a shortcut to the showfile and use that to launch TitanOne. For this to work you will need to ensure TitanOne is set as the default application for .d4z files.
