Hi I was wondering if it is possible to run OLA and FPP6 on the same Pi. I am looking to use OLA to convert from a DMX input to Artnet so I can use this as a trigger into FPP. When I have tried and installed OLA on my FPP image a get a warning that the daemon is not running.
When I remove OLA FPP runs again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, or an alternative solution to accept DMX in to trigger FPP.
Thanks
Steve
It's likely not going to work for ArtNet. ArtNet requires using a specific port for both sending and receiving. OLA and FPPD cannot open the same port at the same time. I would suggest using OLA to convert to e1.31 instead. That may work better.
Thanks it seems to cause the same issue with sACN, but I will keep playing.
Cheers

I think I can get around the issue by creating an alias IP and bind the sACN from Open lighting to the alias address. The only issue is there is no dhcpcd.conf file for me to configure an alias IP address. Can anyone point me in the right direction of how to go about this on FPP.
Thanks
