Some time ago, the idea of supporting the Capture product (a moving light simulation software package similar to WYSIWYG but a lot cheaper) was discussed. Has there been any progress on this.

Yes. We are currently testing new firmware (and a new LCedit) which supports UDP broadcasting of the mixer channels (and more) from a LCX and LCE. This big step makes it possible:


A. To distribute up to 3072 channels from a LCX to multiple boxes (LCX & LCE) on the network, in order to have multiple universes.

B. To have a direct high speed communication link with MAX, so that light channels, DMX and analog inputs are directly accessible in MAX via UDP.

C. That the same mixer broadcast can be picked up via ethernet by Capture as if it is a large ethernet desk.

A is in test now, we are working on B, and for C we have to contact Capture Sweden again and provide them the technical details so that they can implement a LanBox provider. I hope this will happen soon, I'll keep you informed.
