Art-Net #3
Posted by JEC on August 28th, 2009
Good news is that we’re now successfully receiving & parsing Art-Net packets. Bad news is the code barfs with more than one universe at full speed (512 channels at 44 Hz) on the wire.
Next task is to optimize some buffers and convert critical parts of the human-readable code into super-efficient machine language. Hopefully this will dramatically increase the system throughput.
Estimates at this time is that our single controller will be able to support 5-6 universes of DMX over Art-Net at full speed. Anyone need a crazy inexpensive Art-Net to DMX bridge?
Good times. More soon.
