xLights fsec is 7x larger than LOR lms file
« on: November 20, 2015, 06:52:36 PM »
I just want to verify that this is OK and I'm not missing something.  I would have thought that it would have been the other way around.

Thanks

An LMS file is XML so it's not a fair comparison to compare that with an FSEQ file which is raw output data.  The xLights sequence file that is XML is a better comparison.

I just wanted to make sure I didn't do anything wrong.  Everything is working so far so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  Thanks

be aware that the fseq file is created based on teh channel count in SETUP.

Define 40,000 channels and use only 10? The fseq will still be 40,000 channels.
 Make sure setup is just what is needed (or close to what is needed)

That makes sense.  The lms file is just over 600.  The fseq is 6600.
