DMX out chop white flash Windows LTSC 26100 / TD 2023.12600

Bugs
1

On a locked chop, then with null set to always cook (ie: the data is not changing) into DMX chop out there are sporadic white flashes on whole universe (the setup is a few LED strips which are 1 universe each) once every few minutes.

We are using artnet, 60fps, packet per channel, artsync off.

We tried outputting to the same setup using Resolume and we have not seen the issue happen (though resolume needed artsync on).

TD with artsync on behaves the same.

We have two other servers feeding different sections of LED that have the same setup (network, windows, TD version, but different controllers) with no issue.
Any idea on what might be causing flashes on only 1 out of the 3 installations?

Do you notice the same behavior when receiving those same DMX packets with the DMX In CHOP or is it only on the LED strip?

I tried with a small example but wasn’t able to reproduce – if possible, could you send over a sample project?

Thanks.. but yeah I can’t reproduce it myself on other computers, like I said we have two theoretically similar setups that run without issues. But it’s the fact that another software didn’t have the issue throws me off.

Anyway, I just was curious to know if that behavior has been seen before and/or if that could lead to possible debug steps.

Next occasion we’ll have onsite I will run that fixture from on of the other (working) servers on that same network to confirm if the issue lies somewhere with the server itself (or its hardware/network).
