Tim Fischer 196 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Having to have the LOR control panel running when you want to control DMX (and soon E1.31) lights via the sequence editor is non-intuitive, and seems to be the source of a lot of frustration, and by extension, threads here on the forums.I would suggest that, if your network setup includes a DMX/E1.31 network, that the sequence editor just intelligently fire up the Listener on your behalf. Or if that's not feasible for technical reasons, at least pop a warning dialog that some of your lights are not going to be properly controlled.This presumably simple fix would keep a lot of people from tripping up.-Tim Link to post Share on other sites

George Simmons 1,210 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Kind of disappointing that Dan's vote back in 2012 didn't seem to count for very much at all ... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
k6ccc 1,054 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Please make it selectable. I would generally NOT want the comm listener on my sequencing computer because a second computer pouring out E-1.31 packets would interfere with the show computer pouring out E1.31 packets.
