Suggestions for S4 and problems with cold temperature

[freewill84]

it was outside and its hard to tell weather it was the controller or the software. It only happened that once and the next day at home It worked perfect.

If tracks stopped playing, and you couldn't controll the software with the S4 or your keyboard and mouse, then I'm fairly sure it was computer/ software related.

Are you using a PC? And if so, have you optimized it for DJing, have you ran the DPC latency checking program? Etc.

I have optimized for DJing and I run the DJTT script for optimization. Like I said this has never happened before and now works fine at home. The only conditions that changed was the weather. I have have also read a forum on Native about this problem. So I'm not the only one with this problem. I really do not feel like it was the software or my PC. I appreciate the help though.

No problem. Just trying to eliminate the usual culprits.

I still find it very odd that temperature of 62f would cause a problem with the S4, but stranger things have happened lol.

Was the humidity high? Foggy? Or as some one suggested condensation earlier, was the S4 moved from a warmer temp to the cooler one soon before it was used?

"Was the humidity high? Foggy? Or as some one suggested condensation earlier, was the S4 moved from a warmer temp to the cooler one soon before it was used?"

I would definitely say those were all factors. condensation and cold temp. from warm to cold.

That was probably it then. Warm meeting cold = condensation along with high humidity in the air adding to it.
Maybe next time allow the s4 to reach ambient temp in the car slowly and keep it covered untill performance time. At least that should help.
