FIrst off: Welcome.

The process of using Capture is considered to be on of the last steps in learning QLC+... You have to realise that before Capture will show 'something' different steps have to be complete.

I'd suggest to start with setting up QLC so you have some kind of show. Use the http://www.qlcplus.org/docs/fixturemonitor.html DMX output window in 2D-mode... Here you already have the possibility of showing a preview.

Once you got this working adding output to Artnet would be the next step. Be sure about the universe you choose and the network configuration you set up. Artnet uses IP adress 2.x.x.x MASK 255.0.0.0 as default (!)

Setting up Capture is not in the scope of this forum. It involves setting up and mapping fixtures so artnet-universes are being listened to and in the end being rendered. note: The 2D DMX-monitor is built in and so much easier.

Be assured: It works! Only the number of configuration steps are somewhat cumbersome.

Succes
