delighted in less than 30 min (between downloading and creating microSD) it already operated .. with the fixtures that are used to me with the project for the evening ..
So everything is right .. The DMX USB dongle that I work for me all ..
ArtNet well as use most often (first ground for ArtNet: Mac has a few USB ports and I often serve mouse, and Korg nanoKontroller and I forget the hub)
arrival at local prepare everything ..
here is a bit of plots:

I turn around and I work well for an hour or so, I make changes to the scenes .. I add buttons and stuff ... .. use the classic PC keyboard (with backlighting), sins I had no time nor space for use by the OSC iPad ..
and here begin the quarrels ..
Use the effect "Animation" on the LEDs and when I open the curtain to choose an effect surprise and black!

same thing happened to me when I came into the edit mode of the console in live .. I pressed a button or fader par give the parameters and a window appeared completely black ... all I still worked great ..

at one point I think I restart QLC Raspberry .. and I I continued with the mac .. in ArtNet I had everything ready .. enough to remove the backout QLC Mac and he intervened (ArtNet second reason: if I have a PC with the qlc reserve and always ready .. I keep QLC on a PC or Mac on continuously in BLACKOUT if I crashed one takeover with the other without too much trouble in the unplug usb wire and other .. apparte this)

I'm not sure I fully understand what you have written, but I recommend you to read the previous posts before opening a new one.
Just ONE post before yours talked about black windows:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=9133

I am working on it, but again, the image should not be used for project design. It's written everywhere and I don't know how to say this anymore.

A Raspberry Pi cannot replace a PC. Guys, please understand it.

I'm not sure that I fully understand your setup. In your post you mentioned a Raspberry Pi, PC and Mac. If you already have a PC and a Mac - why would you run your light show off of a Raspberry Pi?

Although I haven't run the Raspberry Pi version of QLC+ yet (I have a dedicated laptop for Light Control during our Musical Theater performances - it makes more comfortable to have a powerful, solid platform), the PC version has run very well for us.

However, I would like to know more about why the Raspberry Pi version is better for your application (I'm always looking for new ways to use QLC+).
