If this is regarding making the second song for the current singer next, then this build should fix it:

Thanks Piotr will give it a try tonight. Also have been playing with the visualization and love the way it looks even playing with putting into a projector the issue I am having with it is that I use a solid color for the background with singers are singing and Visualization for the fill in music and it starts out just fine put after a little while the visualization and the solid background start flickering back and forth very very fast making very hard to even see the lyrics of the song. Quick fix is just turn off Visualization and everything is fine again. I like the Visualization and use it when playing just music but would also like to use it for fill in. Not a big deal where needs fixed ASAP but something you should know about.

Dana, please try if this version causes flicker as well, because we did modify some code there.

Seems to have taken care of the flicker but the versiion .1 you gave for the skipping singers was really bad it not only skipped singers when making the same singer next when doing two songs each but when I went to all singers singing just one song it would skip the next singer and remove the 1st song they had in their list of songs. had to fight with it all night long and I had over 25 singer. the way I worked around it was just put a song they weren't singing as the 1st song so when it skipped them and took a song off their list all I had to do is highlight them and then hit make them the next singer and put them back in the singer cue where they belong. Worked had all night but made the best of it and had a good night and everyone had fun.

I am sorry, I am not sure why this is not working correctly. We will work more on it.

Dana, I installed version 69.1 and I tried duplicating your process. I just want to reconfirm that I'm doing it correctly.

I loaded two songs for Singer A, B, C, and D
I played Singer A's first song then selected Singer A's second song and clicked on "Make the song next"
I played both songs for Singer A
Singer B, C, and D sang one song apiece
After Singer D is done, Singer B is up next
After Singer B is done, Singer C is up next
After Singer C is done, Singer D is up next

If this is how you had KP set up, I for whatever reason did not encounter your problem but I'll still be playing with v69.1

Not sure if it makes a difference or not, but I'm using rotation and not playlist

1st round of all singers 10 singers all singers have in 4 songs
Singer A sings first song and I click on Singer A next song make this singer next worked ok
Singer B sings first song click on 2nd song make this song next worked I was
adding new singers as I work down the list and all seem to be working ok.
after the 1st rotation I now have over 15 singers so I start one song per singer
Singer A sings their song and program goes to Singer B very quickly and then jumps to Singer C I go back to let singer B sing as they should and their song is gone I have to re-enter it.
Singer B sings their song and then singer C should be up but the program goes to Singer C very quickly the jumps to singer D go back by clicking on make this singer next and their song is gone and they are moved in the rotation so I have to drag them back. This went on all night like this I tried clicking on every setting I could find that might have changed but nothing helped. I have be having trouble with the rotation for a while If you check my post on here you will see what I mean I didn't try shutting down the program and restarting it and I have not fire up the computer today to see if that would help but haven't had anytime today will see what happens tomorrow when I set it up at home and will add the same list of singers.

Okay guys I set up today and ran again just trying one song at a time per singer. Again singer A completes song and program goes to singer b very fast and skips to singer C just as if singer B sang their song and it is removed from there cue. This ran this way all the way down the singer list. I tried resetting the default Reg for the program and that did nothing.

I deleted the program and reloaded .68 version and it ran the program ok but still screwed up if I tried to run where a singer would do two songs before moving on to the next singer. would skip singers as above and would not let me go back and make the singer it skipped next it acted as if it was locked up until I disabled the singer that just sang two songs. Hope you can find what the issues are that are causing this for now no more doubles for me and will run the older version.

Dana, I tried several times and I still cannot duplicate your problem. How about trying the ole system restore to a time when your SKP worked like it should. Maybe your lappy just went a little buggy and restoring it will fix the issue.

This is a brand new laptop I have only had it a couple of months. just put data base from old one into it with the program and added updates as they came in like I said I went back to .68 and it works ok except for doing double songs I do not have .69 but I did install 69.1 and that is where the issue started skipping even when just trying to run the single song per singer. Yes I found a way to work around it and make it through the night and everyone was happy but man was it a lot of extra work for me. I am going on vacation tomorrow and have three gigs next weekend then I think I will try to shoot a video of what is happening and send it in maybe that will help unless they come up with something in between now and then. But tell you one thing for sure I will try it at home before loading it into my show computer. lol

Dana, Piotr posted this earlier to Paradigm, maybe you could try totally uninstalling SKP

To remove all traces of the program from the computer you need:

1. Uninstall the program
2. Remove anything that is left in Doblon/SiglosPro folder in Program Files (x86)
3. Remove %APPDATA%\Doblon\Siglos Karaoke Professional
4. Remove registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Doblon\Siglos Karaoke Professional
5. Run this script to remove registration information http://www.powerkaraoke.com/download/si ... _reset.reg (you may skip this step if you do not want to reenter your unlock code)
6. Remove database file

And this should be it.

Good luck buddy!

Well I don't know what or why but after I went back to an earlier version to get me through a couple o busy jobs I have a week off so wanted to make a screen video of what was going on and what was happening. So I got all set up to test and updated to the newer version and low and behold everything worked just fine. The only thing different is my gig computer almost is never on line and when I set it up at home I turned on on the internet and windows did a lot of updates before testing started. Don't know if that was it or if something else but for now it is working okay. Hope it stays working the way it is wouldn't want another week like when it messed up on me last time. But hey I am getting smarter on finding ways to work around it lol
