Description

When putting the LIBs in the USB, only the 2, 3 and 5 channels are installable. The 24ch will not be found, as if there is no file in the USB. Tried also in an empty USB with only this LIB in the COLORCHIEF folder. Nothing.

Research direction

Start by locating the 24-channel Varytec Giga Bar 8 fixture definition among the repository's DMX fixture files and compare it with the installable 2-, 3-, and 5-channel LIBs. Confirm the definition is recognized by ColorChief when placed alone in the COLORCHIEF folder; done means the 24-channel mode is found and installable.
