48 universes is not much traffic , about 5 megabits/seconds if I calculated right, (48u*512ch*8bit*25Hz+10% overhead) Some corrections: the packet size is 530bytes because of the Art-Net header. Art-Net's refresh rate is 44Hz. unicast would be better if you have a segmented network with lots of swi...
1 - So do the Enttec ODE and the DMX USB MkII do the same thing? but the only difference is the way they connect to, in this case, Resolume? They do the same thing but with different protocol, so you configure them differently. The USB MkII can control 2 universes, while the ODE only one - however,...
The reason I equated those two, is that I don't see a reason why you would still broadcast to every IP on the network, once you have seen the info and have confirmed that you are connected to the right node. A. Because Art-Net I is broadcast only. Unicast introduced in Art-Net II which had released...
Yeah, I think we're saying the same thing :) I'm not totally sure :) What I'm trying to say that giving info about the nodes on the network always could be useful, and not related to the broadcast vs. unicast topic at all. Anyway, thanks for chiming in. It's always great hearing about how you appro...
My question still remains though. When would you want to see a device, and then *not* send data to it directly? The key is not just seeing the device, but the settings. Imagine that you have a 4 universes node, but you want to output to only the 3rd port. It is possible that you find yourself in fr...
Have you come across a usecase where a user wanted to see the device, and then still broadcast to all devices on the net? Yes, in my honest opinion its always useful to see the device, to check out the ports are set up right, as well as the IP range and the universe of the node - in other words: if...
Now for your questions. I'd like to see the IP address of the device... So this would be unicasting. This is not currently supported. We're researching if we can implement this. Not necessarily unicasting. You can discover devices on the network and if they support ArtPollReplies (99.9% of the comm...
