Freeze in Ardour5 #247

Open Gooberpatrol66 opened 4 years ago

Sometimes Helm will freeze, causing Ardour to freeze, and if I open up the project again, and try to interact with the helm GUI, it freezes Ardour again, and I have to reload Helm in the plugins to get it to stop. The audio will still play though.

I have been able to stop this by turning off "Animate Graphics". Click on the Helm logo and you'll see the setting there. This means that you won't be able to see the waveform or other animations for ADSR and modulators, but it stops the freezing.

I confirm that with ardour6 as well. Happens always when I scale the helm UI (I have a HiDPI 4K screen and the default helm UI is too small for it). I experience audio issues when the helm UI is scaled - I have lots of Xruns. I use linux with realtime kernel - 5.6.19-rt-rt12
