Hi there,
can someone explain, why the openDMX USB-Controller doesn´t exists in the MAC Version?
I have a usb2dmx Cable that work with xlights at Windows 7 (Parallels at Mac) with the openDMX Version.
I would like to actually directly work with the Mac Version, but i can´t find the openDMX Controller in xlights.
Someone uses the Mac version with OpenDMX ?Or has a hint for me?

Just checked the code and the OpenDMX has a guard around for OSX. No idea why.
At one point, the serial handling on OSX wasn't able to set the speed to any of the non-standard speeds (DMX's 250000 is non-standard) which is likely why it was blocked off. That said, I would have expected the "DMX" option to also be removed. I *THINK* I fixed that a while ago, but I don't have any serial controllers (all my DMX stuff is run via e1.31 bridges) so it's completely untested.
I just stuck a new xLights-MAC-4.3.2-dmx.tar.gz build which just has that guard removed so the OpenDMX option should be there. Can you give it a try and see if it actually works?
