Hi Roger,

I exchanged some messages with Matt and it turns out that the DMX LOR conversion was not included in xLights 2012b.  Matt is working to release an update very soon that addresses this.

Great news! Thanks for all of your help Frank. How is your conversion script coming along?

So I found an error in my network within the setnet script, but I have a question. In Xlights does it look at Network 0 as LOR Network 1?

For example Etd in LOR or LSP Network= 1-32 @ 512 per universe
Is Xlights Network=0-31?

That is correct.

I do recommended just using light elf so you do not have to go through the LSP->LMS->setnet>xmlreplace->xlights workflow.  It is just LSP->light elf-> play the sequence in xLights.

For LOR sequences you do not need to do anything extra.  An LOR sequence can be played directly in xlights.  The only concern is that the mapping of channels is not quite right if you are using DMX controller settings in LOR, that will be addressed as soon as Matt releases the new version.

Thanks Frank. I will be using your conversion (once updated) to do my msq files, but I have some lms files that I need to convert as well. In the end they ALL need to end up seq files!

I am using LOR in DMX mode as well. My set up will be very similar to yours in the SS Threads.
