Troubleshooting
-
Settings-Window has scaling issues
Check if the application has the permission to scale the window. This should only be a problem on linux.
-
Flickering DMX output
If the DMX output flickers, try to increase the break time. This can happen if the DMX-Interface is not able to handle the data rate.
If multiple senders are sending data to the same universe, the data might interfere. Try to set the controller option to a specific sender.
