« on: January 02, 2019, 10:39:26 AM »I'll do it for $5,000.
I like XLights, but that is a bit out of my budget for this year, need to many P10 panels.

Now that it is a new year, thought I would try and bring this up again. I love what XLights did this past year, cant imagine where it will take us in 2019.
I would love to bring my S5 sequences into XLights. Just wondering if you couldn't reverse engineer the clipboard export you did for S5. The XML files look quite similar between the .loredit file and the clipboard file you export now for S5.
Cant blame a guy for trying, the above post has a .loredit file and a screen shot of what the sequence looks like.
Thanks for all you guys do.

Here is a simple sequence in case anyone gets bored, which I highly doubt this time of the year. Looks like standard xml stuff but I am not any kind of programmer.

Well I was doing it wrong. I just tried using the import effects tab. I dont have an option to select a .LOREDIT file which replaced the .LMS in S5. I did try and rename a .LOREDIT file to .LMS. I got an error "No models to import from. Source sequence had no data.

Jim, will be real important to be able to bring in my S5 sequences.
Gil, S5 files are .loredit files. Not currently an option for importing. I renamed one to .LMS and still didnt import in. How would I import in the file?

I know its a bit early to start thinking about next year but that is where I am at. Had a pretty good year sequencing in both Xlights and S5. In XLights I exported to S5 clipboards and will run my show with LOR this year. Next year might make the switch to XLights but don't want to lose my S5 sequences. Just wondering if you all have looked at an import for S5 sequences yet? I know everyone is probably busy with there shows right now but if you all are interested I would love to test something when you get to that point. Thanks!

Hey Sean, No AC lights, got rid of those several years back. The number 1 reason I still use LOR is MIIP. Been using it for 4 or 5 years now, my display visitors love it, they easily choose the sequence they want to see while they are watching the display. Cant imagine running my display without something similar.
I also like some diversity in my display, my Xlights sequences look drastically different from my Superstar sequences and my straight up sequence editor sequences.
Been playing around with Nutcracker/XLights from the very beginning when it was just web based, I remember having to install some web service software to get it to run on your local machine. Amazing where you and your group have taken the software. Hopefully will see some type of guest sequence choosing this year.

Wanted to follow up on this. Clipboards to S5 are working perfect. I do the complete sequence in XLights. I then export my "all" group. Some of my clipboards have been 3 to 4 gig in size. I paste by time in S5 and the sequence comes in perfect.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

Yeah, that makes sense. You could have a group called everything which has every props in it. Gathering all that info would be crazy. Thanks for replying. On to plan B.

Now that clipboards are working, I ran into another request that might be harder or not doable but you never know til you ask.
I have 16 arches that are in a group but this applies to any group. In the sequencer I have 3 layers that apply to all the arches, but here and there I have effects that only apply to each individual arch. When I export the arch model, it only exports the effects that apply to all the arches, not the effects that are on each individual arch. To get those effects I have to export each arch individually.
Would love to see an export that got all the effects applied to that group.
Thanks for listening and everything you all do.

I installed 2018.2 last night and was doing some testing. Clipboard didnt work at first, opened up the xlights clipboard and a S5 clipboard in notepad++, made a few changes to the xlights clipboard and it seemed to work. The changes I made were in the <cellDemarcations> region, I noticed the S5 clipboard only had a beginning and ending entry.
So today I thought I would get a bit more detailed information and pass it along. Unfortunately today I cant seem to get anything to work.
Here are a few more clipboards and screenshots, I will let you genius's see what you can see, my head is hurting after playing with this all morning. Still cant believe I cant remember exactly what I did last night.
Since on export, xlights exports the entire prop to the clipboard, here are some clipboards of an entire prop in S5. The exports are of 16 candy canes with 16 pixels each. Both the xlights and s5 seqeunce is 30 seconds long. Each effect is on for 5 seconds and then off for 5 seconds.
I know you all are close. Thanks again for doing this!
