I'm interested in this thread.  I'm looking at doing some of the same things here.  I'm a newbie to xlights.  so, the xscheduler doesn't actually run the xlights software?  I don't really understand what the purpose of the scheduler is then...

xLights is the "show creation software" and xScheduler is the "show player" software.  Although xLights can playback your sequences that is mainly to help you design.  To have the sequences play on a schedule you use xScheduler.

Xschedule also has a bunch of interactive features that allow you to take a show which is essentially pre recorded and augment it.

Just want to say thank you so much for adding OSC support. I've tested it out and it seems pretty instant (as opposed to the curl feature I tried to use last year which had a variable delay). I haven't tested it with my display yet but it seems very flexible and should be exactly what I need for a perfect show sync


But yeah, anyway, thank you so much for this fantastic piece of software. I was worried so much that id have to switch to something else this year.

Thanks!
