Is there any way to have QLC act as an ArtNet receiver node that will respond to discovery requests?

I am developing an app that sends ArtNet, and I was hoping to use QLC as a test receiver. I've experimented with the loop through functions, and they are receiving packets from my app. But they do not seem to respond when I send a discovery request.

Any quick suggestions?

Thanks for helping a newbie. ;-)

Best Wishes,
Mark

Operating system?
What exact packet are you looking for?

This is the source for Artnet plugin: https://github.com/mcallegari/qlcplus/b ... rtnet/src/
check artnetcontroller and artnetpacketizer to see if they contain the information you need.

I'd be trying this on Mac and Windows.

I mean, I don't really need the discovery part I guess. Just want to verify that my ArtNet packets are being received somewhere, as I currently don't have any hardware to test with.

I tried to set up the Virtual Console with some sliders that have External Inputs from ArtNet. But I didn't succeed at this.

Thanks in Advance,
Mark
