Hi,  
I set up a custom control and when i push the button to run the effect everything works except xpression. I ask to take ID 5003 channel 1 layer 1 but nothing happens. If I do it manually and click on the ID it does it fine. I want it to work with my custom control thou. What I’m I missing? Here is a picture of the way i set it up. Also, can the media manager play videos if we have a external hard drive plugged in?  
Thank you.  
Laz

Did you make sure that the RossTalk “GPI board” is enabled in XPression?

You can see in the video link here to the U video for setting it up.. 4:45 mark specifically for the XPression side configuration.

The Media Manager and Media Stores are not able to play long form video clips. The Carbonite Ultra does have a H.264 clip player which is able to play longer form encoded clips direct from USB.
