Im creating my own skin and have problems with the rythm part.
I load a song in deck 1, and it shows the rythm curves in color 1, lets say red.
Now I load a song in deck 2, and suddenly, the color of the rythm curve for deck 1 changes to color 2, lets say blue.
I have the same behaviour when I use the build-in skin DJC_Edition.
How can I fix this? I want to have a fixed color for the song in deck1 and blue for the song in deck 2.
Even if there is only one song loaded or both.... always the same color for deck 1.
My xml code is:
<rhythm>
<size width="1210" height="71"/>
<pos x="35" y="25"/>
<chan1 x="35" y="961" />
<chan2 x="35" y="1051"/>
<both x="35" y="1142" />
Thank you!

Some extra info:
the color of the rythm curve also switches when you switch decks (Select Headphone and Active Shortcuts [Tab]).

If you dont want the active deck to change then in the XML you can make the wave colors use all the same location x/y, for example all the blues will use the same bright blue location and it would not use the darker tone when its not active.
Thats what you saying right?

Hmm, I don't think that is what I am saying...
Let me clarify what I mean.
In my bmp file, I have 3 rythm wave images/colors defined:
- red on location (35,961)
- blue on location (35,1051)
- yellow on location (35,1142)
My xml file looks like this, pointing to the different images/colors:
<rhythm>
<size width="1210" height="71"/>
<pos x="35" y="25"/>
<chan1 x="35" y="961" /> => red
<chan2 x="35" y="1051"/> => blue
<both x="35" y="1142" /> => yellow
</rhythm>
What I want is the following.
The rythm wave for deck 1 should always be red.
The rythm wave for deck 2 should always be blue.
No matter which deck is active.
I thought I could do this with the code above.
But what happens now is. I load a song in deck 1, and it takes <chan2 x="35" y="1051"/> as image for the wave (which is already strange in my opinion)
Now I load a song in deck 2. Now the wave for deck 1 uses <chan1 x="35" y="961" /> as image for the wave.
Whenever I switch decks [tab] the wave for deck 1 switches images/colors.
I see the same behaviour in other skins.
And now I was wondering if it is possible to do what I want.
Thanks alot for your help

I don't know if this will work in home edition, but try:
<rhythm>
<size width="1210" height="71"></size>
<pos x="35" y="25"></pos>
<chan1_active1 x="35" y="961"></chan1_active1>
<both_active1 x="35" y="1051"></both_active1>
<chan2_active1 x="35" y="1142"></chan2_active1>
<chan2_active2 x="35" y="1142"></chan2_active2>
<both_active2 x="35" y="1051"></both_active2>
<chan1_active2 x="35" y="961"></chan1_active2>
</rhythm>

Hmm,
this doesnt seem to work in VDJ 3.4 DJ Console edition.
So I guess it is not possible.

Ah, sorry, that's no help to you then.
The rhythm in the console version is set so that chan1 is actually ACTIVE CHAN, not deck 1. It would appear that this is a standard setting and cannot be adjusted.
Sorry not to be able to solve this one :(
