Hey Hey now....lets all play nice!! :twak: Sounds like someone is threatened by "convergence";)
Tim,
The Versa-tubes do not communicate with DMX, they use their own serial language. So you can only use specific hardware with them. You then input a video siganl to the system which applies it to a pixel map (made by you and loaded onto the Versa-Tube processor).
In order to do this with a DMX fixture (Like Pixel-Line, or Color-Blaze...whatever you have) you are missing the pixel mapping/processing part of the equation. This is where software like the Pixel-Mad on Catalyst comes into play. In essence, you need to be able to tell the fixture which pixel (or pixels in the case of an LED strip) in the raster it is going to emulate.
Does this make sense? If not, feel free to ask more questions.:) :hogsign:
