WINDOWS 8 QUESTION

HI , bernd
THE SOFTWARE IS OK ON WIN 7, BUT when i use it on win 8 , the software can connect the device and receive the signal , but it look like the software can not send out the signal to ma2 on pc, so i can use the controller through your software to control ma2 on pc.
do you have any idea to solve this problem ?
thank you

Sorry, i can't test it on windows 8.
Ideas to try:
- check if you assigned art-net ip's
- check which dmx-workshop if Art-Net is working
- run it as admin
- disable the firewall
- don't use broadcast-addresses for Art-Net
- use broadcast-addresses for Art-Net
- assign static ip's
- connect a network (when you are running local only)

Of curse disable the firewall is for test reasons only and is a security risk!
You should find firewall settings that fit for using bomac.
Normally admin also isn't required. but i don't know why you need to use it.

Hello guys
I also posted in MA forum but no response so far.
I believe I even wrote here too but I can't find my post.
Anyway.....
I have the same problem
I am doing exactly what the guy in the video is doing but it's not working.
The Bernd Ott's software does not recognize the MA OnPC.
When I go to the settings/network protocols and I dis-activate and reactivate the "Artnet Input Active" button than the Bernd Ott's software
recognize the MA OnPC but only for a little while and than it get lost again.
I have the latest MA OnPC installed but I did try it out on previous version and still no luck
Any idea why this is happening?
