please give us a buttom in the the sidebar or as a f key, for seperate main switch on and off artnet and sacn. so wo could fast switch on one or bothe or the other. thx.
Hi @deflost
Thank you for the suggestion.
Would you be able to add a little bit of context, and an example of where you may need to use this? Most systems use either sACN or Art-Net, so I’m just interested to hear the scenario where you may wish to turn off just sACN, leaving Art-Net enabled, for example.

we want to switch off artnet on hot backup consoles, to avoid double artnet output to resolume, but want to hold the sacn backup output on lower priority HOT ,to get a smooth automatic take over in case of a faillure of the primary console, inklusiv the take over for artnet based outputs to devices which are not able to receive sacn with priorty. at the moment the re-switch to artnet out on, on the backup consoles via artnet settings in the menue, simply takes too long in event situations if a fallback to a backup console is nesseccary. thx.
If the Primary and Backup console are both outputting Art-Net, Resolume should perform an HTP or LTP merge of the two sources. As both sources will be sending the same data, the merge should have no effect. Therefore, it should be fine to leave unicast Art-Net output enabled on both systems.
If Resolume is not performing an Art-Net merge, do you instead have a couple of ports spare on a Netron device? If so, you could use a Netron device as an sACN to Art-Net converter. This would allow the Netron device to listen to the highest priority sACN stream from the two ONYX systems, and convert this to Art-Net, to be sent to Resolume.

we try to resend a universe on a free en12 output. how can we do that?
at the first try it works anyhow, but at the next try it does not. how exactly can we do it?
we send 4 universes sacn from a nx1 to an en12 to port 1 to 4. we set port 8 to merge htp universe 1 and resent it as artnet to universe 8. is this correct? shoud this work for sending the data of universe 1 from nx1 to artnet universe 8 in unicast mode?
thx
edit:
we found out, that the en12 only resend the merged universe via artnet if it is set to dhcp. if we choose a costum ip it does not do it!? why is this the case?
thx.
Hi @deflost
To configure this, configure a spare port to receive the sACN universe destined for Resolume. Then, enable an HTP Merge, and set the Merge universe to match. This will then allow you to configure the Resend Protocol to Art-Net, and set the Art-Net universe Resolume is expecting…
This port will then receive this sACN universe from both sources, and the source with the highest priority will then be converted to Art-Net.
I have tested this on both a Custom and DHCP IP address, and this functions as expected.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
