EOSNomad ArtNet sACN output

Yes it does and I’ve actually run a live show like that with a real rig connected on artnet when I didn’t have the license dongle with me - very not recommended as the rig flashes every 5 to 8 mins but got away with it by pulling the Ethernet cable out when there was nothing happening for a bit - so certainly you can run the visualiser 

you will just have something set wrong, decide if you want to do this artnet or sACN and then we can work through the settings - the two protocols work differently with ip addresses as one is broadcast and one multicast.

Great news Mike. I can proceed knowing such is possible. I honestly thought maybe only consoles would transmit. I've attached a picture of my network setup from the shell. This could be a starting point so we need only need talk about specific changes in future messages.

With the choice of ArtNet or sACN I'm thinking of focusing (pun intended!) on ArtNet because I have seen "Capture", ArtView and QLC+ working together nicely. I'm sitting here trying to think what to change next. As noted before, I'm unable to check many boxes (in the lower panels) so limited. It may be something up-stream - in the program rather than the shell. Your interest is appreciate - it is a difficult subject but one I am surprised more folks haven't attempted.

The stuff that's greyed out is handled by the operating system. So changing IP and subnet would need to be done in Windows

A couple of things here.

Firstly you might try changing the drop down that says Primary Art-Net to the option directed broadcast.

Also I don't know what universe you are using but a couple of things to watch out for.

You've got allowed output addresses set to 512 so only the first universe is output

Also there seems to be some ambiguity between products as to whether the first universe is 0 or 1  I battled with some software that i was sending artnet to was not seeing it when everything else on the universe was and it turned out the other software was off by 1 in the universe number,

If the above doesn't get you going then if you can log the settings on the other software we might be able to figure out the mismatch.

Also you might try turning off the firewall temporarily in case that is blocking something even though this is all local. Just make sure you put it back on afterwards.

Thanks Mike. Yep only using 5 lights for a demo! Found that changing 'Captures'; Tools/Options/Connectivity; ArtNet and ESR E1:31 (sACN) from "Automatic" to the same IP address as my desktop and things worked. Phew! Hope this helps someone else.
