All curve points are set to 30s on auto-load #26

Every time I open Duration, it automatically loads the last file that I was working with, only that all curve and color points past 30 seconds are set to 30 seconds. However, bangs remain at the correct times. I cannot comment on flags, switches, or LFOs as I haven't used any yet. The first time this happened, I thought my data was lost and manually redid my curves and colors. The second time it happened, I checked the .xml files and sure enough the correct data was there. I manually loaded the timeline that was already loaded and all the correct curve and color keyframes returned.

Same here: when duration opens, the default project is "compressed" to 30s. this is not nice for automated setups... luckily enough, there is a workaround: send an osc command to reopen the same file after duration has opened.

@fabiocionini Can you document your workaround? This is such a bummer..

ps. Docs about it here, and it actually works: https://github.com/YCAMInterlab/Duration#controlling-duration-through-osc

@mrzl check the OSC commands: https://github.com/YCAMInterlab/Duration#controlling-duration-through-osc . You can use any software capable of sending OSC messages (I used a Processing script), just send the "/duration/open" command to Duration with a string parameter containing the path of the file, and it will open just fine.
