That would be a great feature, indeed. But i think, there is no "intelligence" behind phantom frog (but sure behind the phantom-developers ;) ).

Please note that Capture will also accept DMX IN from the very affordable Enttec Open USB DMX widget, which costs around $ 60.00.

 

This is still no solution for Phantom Frog but people with a hardware Frog can have a fully functional pre-viz application for about $ 1000 with this setup.

 

However Wysiwyg is much more powerfull than Capture and does a lot more (renderings like Pipo showed can't be done in Capture - it just does live shaded 3D). It is however quite an expensive program, also requiring totally brutal pc hardware to make the most of it, and it is very far from bug free.

The Phantom Frog is a full simulation of the desk software, including the DMX calculation. That's how you get to see it in the outputs screens :P

 

There is no mechanism however to output the resultant DMX universe to any hardware; Ethernet, USB or otherwise. If we added this, well you'd have any of the Frog desks for virtually nothing, wouldn't you? We've ended up back at THIS TOPIC again haven't we?
