Can anyone advise if this is suitable for use with vixen?

Its cheap - but would like any advice before I buy.

After looking at the video, I'm thinking probably not.

can you reccomend a dmx dongle?

It depends what sort you're after really.

I sell an optically isolated "Open DMX" style one for $89, but there are cheaper "Open DMX" ones out there that don't have the isolation.

There is also the "DMX Pro" type dongles that have on-board processing (less CPU intensive) but they are up to $200 +.

I'm not sure if Vixen supports either (or both) the Open and Pro style interfaces.
