dowdybrown asked for one of my LSP converted to LMS files to look at to see what is happening during the conversion process.

I've taken a preliminary look at Keith's file. Here is what I've found:

This sequence is almost 19 minutes long! However, all channels are off after 1:06 or so. Probably an issue with the LSP export, unless you have it defined in LSP that way.

The xLights converter looks for the length of the first channel to determine the length of the sequence. In your file:

<channel name="Roof Left Blue" color="16711680" centiseconds="113379" deviceType="LOR" unit="1" circuit="1" savedIndex="0">

113379 centiseconds is almost 19 minutes.

When I change that line to:

<channel name="Roof Left Blue" color="16711680" centiseconds="6601" deviceType="LOR" unit="1" circuit="1" savedIndex="0">

...you get a much more reasonable file size, but the content still isn’t right. I will work on the conversion issue tonight.

Thanks for taken the time to look into this.
If you need I can also send you some LSP exported LMS files.

Thanks Again

Yes it is only 1:06 long in both LSP and LOR S2

Yes it is only 1:06 long in both LSP and LOR S2

Never mind, I found a way around it in xLights 2011e.
