    Hi, I have connected Capture & various OLE's using Windows XP many times, both across a network and also on the same machine. Never a problem. I have just made the move to Mac and am trying to connect the Eos OLE to my MacBook Pro within the same machine. The Eos appears to be configured so that it will output to a visualiser, but the universes are not appearing in Capture. I am certain this is operator error (being so new to Mac OS) but if anyone can help i'd be most grateful. Cheers Colin

    Hi Colin,

    Some things to check for;
    - any custom or OS firewalls running
    - IP configuration in general - are you connected to a network?
    - specific protocol needs, ArtNet for instance may require a 2.255.255.255 network

    Also check with ETC in case they have any useful info!

    Thanks Lars, I managed to connect Capture to a physical Eos today with no problem at all. I suspect one of my issues was that I did not have an external network present. Also, I have since been on the ETC forum and they have recognised a problem connecting the OLE to Capture which they say they are working on, although this was a few weeks ago and there hasn't been a bug fix as yet! For anyone else experiencing trouble, ETC say that the work around is to open their OLE in Client mode first, then exit and open in the Offline mode. Cheers Colin
