guys i really hate to bring this up but i am having trouble. switching to xlights from vixen and want to bring my 48 channel ac arduino controller over. but cant find a code to set that will trigger with xlights. can some please help.
 
I guess ideally you'd change your ardunio code to accept e1.31 input?
 
See if you can find some decent code. I've got a few homemade controllers using Arduino that I've never got around to setting up with xLights.
The vixen code uses serial, for xLights you'd be wanting something to take sACN/e1.31 from an Ethernet module. That does mean some networking will be involved.

I thought there was a serial option in xLights but it seems to have disappeared.
 
I thought the same as Mark_M. I cut my LED teeth with Arduino, my advice would be to talk to Keith Westley, he maybe able to point you in the right direction..
 
thanks guys i will keep looking and trying things out but ithink iam just going to dump the ac lights and order more pixels.
