3D OV - Offline Viewer

Hi All,

Is there an OV compatible with the Color Source 40 AV controller? I am aware, and use, the onboard 2d viewer, but, I'm hoping there is a compatible viewer so I can view my moving heads so that I can pre design my shows before show time.

Thanks

  • Hello, 

    I don't understand the OV abbreviation , but if you are looking about a 3D viewer, I use Capture, and it works well with the Colorsource console.

  • Thanks PBo67,

    So I downloaded a trial version of the latest version of CAPTURE. I cant seem to see any response in capture from my fixtures.

    What am i missing?

    -  Connected a Ethernet cable between the console and the laptop running the CAPTURE trial version.

    - Set my ColorSource AV to ArtNet (see pic)

    - Added 1 Studio Spot 575 and set to universe 1 @ DMX 25, external universe is "automatic"

    - Added 1 Chauvet Colorado 1 Quad Zoom Tour, set to universe 1 @ DMX 439 "automatic"

    These fixtures are configured in the ColorSource as well in the same universes & DMX address. The fixtures work via DMX just fine. Just cannot see the output in Capture.

    Please advise

  • Hello,

    Have you set the IP address of your computer in the same network as the console? I use Capture very often with the console without any worries.

  • Hello Again,

    Still no luck.....

    Do you think its because im using the trial version of Capture?

    How do I check my computer IP. Can you send me a picture of your Capture/Computer IP setting location?

    The pic I provided above, shows my console settings. The scan code pops up when I plug the Ethernet cable into the computer. This is the only indicator that there is communication.

    I have spent countless hours. its probably very simple. I am frustrated.

    have not received any support from Capture Tech Support.

  • No the trial version must work.

    For the moment I cannot send you a picture, because the console is in the truck loaded.

    But send us your picture of the computer address , un picture of the Capture setting (outil/option/connexion) and a better resolution picture of the console network setting.

    It is very easy, when the setting is good

  • Thanks Mafriend!!

    It works! thanks for your patients.

    However, I have another issue. Capture works for a minute then I get the error. Any ideas?

    I have posted this in the Capture forum. This is a gamer computer with serious graphics (below)
