Hi Keith,

Thanks for taking the time to help us.

I have two areas I would love to know more about.

1. Setting up various controllers, with correct Universe according to lights. At the moment I have a separate Universe appointed to each element. I am wasting a lot of available space.

2. How to add a video in sync to a sequence.

Thanks.

Binny.

and some more of converting LOR, LSP, Vixen to xLights

To set expectations. Like many of you there are parts of xlights I know well and others I don't. Unfortunately converting from lor etc is one I don't know. I can however demo how to import from xlights so things like Logan's Star Wars or lilias sequences.

I am thinking of running this as a bit of a program spread over say 4-6 weeks.

I will start this week with the layout tab. We will go through from first install loading your background image, defining your models, creating custom models. We will go through all the model types and their configuration.

If we get time we can touch on controllers.

[keithsw1111]

Liz. Not hear to convert you. Vixen is a fine sequencer. I'm just here to help people who are interested understand how to use xlights.
