If it is a short sequence, then you could export it from Xlights to Vixen 2 format, and then import the Vixen 2 file, but you don't want to do this for sequences that you will be using ongoing. There are now tools in Vixen 3 to help "crunch" the vixen 2 import into a smaller sequence file, but...
I'm interested in the answer to that too..... what ratio turps ? How long do they take to "dry out" Could you brush them just before you put them up, so they cure / dry out in situ ?
Ray Wu pixels, with 100 mm inter-wire. But I do have heaps of custom ones.... with 25mm interwire (didn't realise the future problems when I ordered those.
I like to be super cautious, so I have 35mm over the join, and then a bigger heatshrink over all wires, and that one gets the silicone...
What he is saying, is to use the Profile Wizard, to zip up your profile in the old computer. This assumes that all your files are in the Vixen Profile subdirectory. If you background image is somewhere else, it won't be included. If you audio files are somewhere else, they also will not be...
Just curious, how do you replace in-string pixels ? The wire between two pixels is too short to allow placement of heatshrink to slide onto the joins. Do you just use electrical tape ? Or do you use crimps (but then how do you waterproof them ?

I don't have any of those endcaps (and I need to add pigtails to a lot of short strips) ..... Is it safe to do all the above WITHOUT the endcap ????? Or when the heatshrink shrinks, will it damage the end of the strip ?
If I have to use the endcaps, then I guess I better get in touch with...
Yes, Auckland to Rotorua, don't go through Hamilton, take a side trip to the Coromandel Peninsula... visit Hot Water Beach (have to be there within a couple of hours of low tide, take a mini shovel to dig your private spa pool in the sand), and Cathedral Cove.... and if you are a beach person...
If you export to Vixen 2, and then try and import that back into Vixen 3, you will not get the result you are seeking, as a lot of details will be lost, and it will come back as a much larger file, with hundreds/thousands of individual effect items.
You can export the gradients, etc, and...
