xlights with RPM E1.31 Dongle

[jlowe]

Last year was my first year! I used xlights to run LOR sequences, with mixed hardware of LOR and Renard.  I had planned to run the controllers as DMX and purchased RPM's (from DIYC) E1.31 dongle.  However, while I could get it to work with Vixen, I was unable to get it to work with xlights.

Is it not supported by xlights? I ran out of time last year, and just used some rs485 converters to run the show through xlights. But I would like to have it work for next year if I can.  Or, if it's not supported, can I use a etherdongle instead?

Just planning for next year, thanks.

I had same problem with Xlights and RPM E131 bridge. I sent Matt Brown (Xlights creator) packets of both Xlights and LSP E131 packets and he found the problem and corrected it just yesterday. He says fix will be included in next release of Xlights. Now where do you get that kind of service and response. Matt you are the man.
