OK ready to call it quits

[bdeditch]

I am wanting to run via NC this year since LOR would handle it. I have all of my LOR controllers set up in DMX from Channels 1 to 80 in Universe one, I have 2 Dumb strip trees using 4 of the 27 channel controllers, but we are running them thru the Enttec Pro dongle, had issues the other way. And a 24 string Pixel tree using 2 Joshua P12R's. I am using a DIY 1.31 bridge to run the LOR controllers and yes I have a X?O from LOR to DMX.
 I changed all of my network config in LOR and NC and I have included pictures of each. I thought I had everything working, but tonight it all stopped. When I test all the lights using the test in NC they all work every LED string that the controllers would run and all the trees, no problem, so I know the controllers are getting a signal via test.
 But when I convert a LOR Sequence  in NC and try to play it only the models for the pixel and dumb strip trees work, nothing from the LOR controllers. I made a model of 80 strings and using channels 1 to 80, for the 5 LOR controllers, the model played and lights worked, get rid of the model it doesn't work. I know something is not setup right, I have tried also getting rid of the Dumb strip tree DMX channels in the LOR sequence and still nothing. Any help would be a great help to me right now.

This is the issue you are runny into in LOR DMX Universes you can only use one Type of Protocol per Universes in photo #2 you have the ENTTEC DMX USB Pro set up
In saying with LOR you can’t run ENTTEC DMX USB Pro and E1.31 in same Universes ..

The only way around this is to put the E1.31 in Universes #1 then the ENTTEC DMX USB Pro into Universes #2
And then the rest will need to be move up one Universes 

In LOR, you have everything defined in one DMX Universe.  (universe 1)   When you convert that in xLights, it's trying to put all of that into the first output.  However, you only have 80 channels defined there.   If you scroll up to the top of the status box after the convert, there's probably a bit of information there about what it found in the LMS file as apposed to what your setup tab says.   That information is likely very important in resolving this.

If you have stuff that need to go out in separate outputs in xLIghts, you're going to have to have it defined in separate networks/outputs in LOR as well.

Yes That is something I fixed, never realized that would be the problem. I now have the LOR controllers on Universe 1 (channels 1-80, my dumb trees on universe 2 (Channels 81 to 188)  and the pixel tree on 3 to 26. I can now play the sequence via LOR, doing dmx, but still when I go into nutcracker, convert, which goes good, and try to play the sequence, noth go to anything controlled by the LOR controllers. I attached a conversion picture and the rgb effects and networks, maybe someone can tell me what is going on. and yes LOR was shut down when I tried in NC

Got it figured out, I never knew nothing would work unless it was played in preview, I was trying to play it in the nutcracker tab.
