POD H500 / JTV-89 - Changing patch resets selected tuning, bug ?

Hi,

Today I had a really annoying issue during my band's rehearsal : it seems that the selected tuning on my JTV-89 connected to a HD500 through VDI constantly resets to standard.

We're playing Drop C songs and each time I change my patch, the tuning resets to default so I have to turn the tuning knob to get my tuning back.

I checked and my patch is set to "Don't force" for the model and the tuning, so I think it should change anything.

Worse : if I select my patch, with the tuning knob already to Drop C, I enable the tuner, it shows a standard E tuning.

Then I move the tuning button, keeping the tuner enabled : it shows the correct tuning.

Then if I step on the button of the same patch (to close the tuner) and enable the tuner again, the tuning is back to E.

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a bug. It seem to occur with all my patches where input is set to "Variax" or "Guitar + Variax".

Attached you'll find one of my patches that has the issue. (remove the ".jpg" from the filename)

POD & Variax are fully updated. I'm familiar with the POD but I just bought the variax so maybe I missed something.

The workaround I use is to use the standard "guitar" cable and the battery, but I'm losing the benefits of the VDI connection.

Anyone else has that issue ?

I cant help with your JTV issue (I have a Variax 700).

But if you want to attach a patch just change the extension from .h5e to .jpg (which is an allowed file type) and when people download the file they change it back again.
