Q Light Controller+

Hello friends, I would like your help, I would like to know if I can send the DMX signal from another app like SoundSwitch to QLC via ArtNet? I have a pair of mini Spider LEDs that don't work with my USB DMX interface in SoundSwitch but work perfectly in QLC+ or even in Lightkey. So I want to send the DMX signal via ArtNet from SoundSwitch, I want QLC to receive this input and as output send it to my interface. I make the connections that are in the images below but that joystick indicating the connection doesn't appear. Can someone help me?

I would use 127.0.0.1 and enable the universe passthrough option to a DMX USB device on the same universe
You might need to adjust the Art-Net universe number since the sender might start from 1 and not from 0

Thank you for the response, but I made the changes you suggested and the joystick still does not appear. When both programs are open, in QLC in the inputs and outputs tab and in the artnet frame, in Packets received, QLC is receiving 2 or packets per second. But no change in the lights. What else can I do?

I'd start investigating with a network sniffer, ensuring there __is__ data to be fetched as input.
Next, start looking at the 0 or 1 Artnet universe dilemma. Sending to a n# 1 universe, does it interpete as a 0-universe or vice versa?
Then, when a solid data exchange is established, worry about why this or that.

Try to patch dummy fixtures to cover the DMX addresses you need to output (I don't want to check the code now, but it is possible that QLC+ outputs only patched channels).

Hi
i have been trying to the same thing for the few days but i have had no solution so far. Did you find any solution later
please share with me if you find anything thanks

Passthrough is selected - check
Now comes to the Artnet Universe you configured... know that QLC+ is 1-based so Artnet universe 0 equals 1 in QLC+ https://docs.qlcplus.org/v4/plugins/art-net
If Artnet packets are recognized, the blue joystick should wiggle.
