Posted this in bugs but not sure it is a bug or if I'm missing a setting or something.
I am using the default 4 deck skin for vdj8
I load videos into decks 3 and 4 and have auto disabled for which source to select to output so that way I can select the source, and select it as deck 3 and 4. I have my crossfader linked to the video and as I fade left to right it does fade and output exactly as I expect to my external screen and the output preview screen in the video mixer shows exactly what is being output.
The issue is the 2 source preview screens in the video mixer are only showing whatever is the active deck. So even though I have deck 3 selected for the left deck it outputs exactly as expected but if I have deck 1 active the preview source window is nothing, same with source 2 on the right decks. It fades and outputs the sources correctly as I select below the video preview screens but the source previews do not show the decks I select they are always showing active. So for me to see what I'm mixing together on 3 and 4 they must be the active decks, even though I am using them with no volume and mixing music on decks 1 and 2 that does not have video.
I could have swore it was working as I expected before but all of a sudden it is not. Not sure if it was an update or something else happened. I've uploaded a screenshot so you can see I have decks 3 and 4 selected for the video and it is outputting as you can see in the output screen preview, but both sources are showing active decks 1 and 2
any thoughts?

Anyone having the same experience?

Hi yes I have noticed this - to get around it you have to press the corresponding deck buttons on the video slider - the audio slider on the other hand allows you to select two decks at the same time - eg. 12 on left and 34 on right.
I am not sure if this is a bug but you would have thought it should behave exactly like the audio fader by allowing you to choose more than one deck per side?
I also checked the default V7 skin and it also behaves the same.
