Hi everyone,
I've recently realized that from certain version there is "Open Rx" feature, which enables general FT232R USB-RS485 converter to receive external DMX signal. Great work ! (http://www.qlcplus.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13489)

However when I tried this feature, in my Mac it works correctly, but in Windows 10 the "Receiver state" is "Idling", does not change to "Receiving".

Is there anything to try to fix this status?

Windows screenshot saying "idling"
-QLC+ 4.12.7
-Windows 10 Pro
-Confirmed Open Tx = sending DMX is working good
-Confirmed signal receiving by the Rx LED on the board, also by a serial monitoring software (Teraterm)

The screenshots are Japanese version, but you can still read it because the critical part is not translated :)

I have the very same problem here on my Windows 11 machine, see my post here: https://github.com/mcallegari/qlcplus/p ... 2029484308
