Topic: First POI is often missed in Automix

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

When I'm using VirtualDJ in Automix mode (FADE, REMOVE SILENCE) (2s FADE) the first POI (CUE 1) is missed about 50% of the time. I tried placing the first cue at 2.5s into the song and also 3s into the song (Not ideal because these are lighting cues) however this has not increased the probability of these POI being triggered significantly. The POI is sending an OS2L command to trigger a light scene in my DMX software.

Does anyone have some suggestions on how I can get these POI to trigger reliably?

Remove silence means that the next track may start on 1.5 sec and the mix will finish at 3.5 secs.
During the automix transition all action POI's of the incoming song get ignored until transition finish itself. Therefore you should either use a safer place to put your action POI's (let's say at least after fifth second) or use another automix type (depending on your list) that allows "safer" transitions (like back to back)
