Sorry. As I was not expecting to use xSchedule due to the fact that I am running multiple RPi/FPP remotes, I have not dug into the books for xSchedule. This news that xSchedule can send sync signals rather than full sequence streams is new. I may take some time tonight and check this out.
FYI - sequence streams across the internal communications setup will kill the whole thing. The sync method, with appropriate sequences loaded at each of the remotes is what I need.
algerdes,
thank you for adding comments to this I also agree to your comments especially "sequence streams across the internal communications setup will kill the whole thing. The sync method, with appropriate sequences loaded at each of the remotes what I also need.
One way to look at this as Xlight is the editor console and maybe with the xSchedule there be some handshaking with FPP on the Master/Remote role!!
I think about my work background in video editing, where we had an editor console that control the video switcher, audio board, VCRs as well as digital effects unit.
In this set up a used Timecode sync method, one may look to how midi time code is used from a keyboard to drum machines and other devices.
The bottom line there's a what or need for some type of handshaking between Xlight & FPP or the other way around.
