The creator of the FPP is not supposed to use xLights to run lights anyways. :)

Are there any changes in the data for the "missing" packets?   If there aren't any changes, xLights won't send it.

I am running a butterfly at top speed with only 6000 or so channels on a matrix. This is in the sequencer tab not the preview.

In the preview it is running at 32 frames per second, so better.

dave had mentioned last year that xlights 3.6 was outputting only 16 frames epr second instead of 20 on the windows platform.

I dont use xlights to run the show, i use FPP.

so if 25 ms in the new xlights should be 40fps nut instead is 32 fps, it seems we may have an issue that has been around for a few years.
