Posted: Mon Jun 08, 2015 5:12 pm
All,
I have a macbook pro runnig 10.8.5 and QLC+4.8.5 and trying to use Entec OPENDMX USB interface with no luck. Has anyone tried then below interface? I am a volunteer at my daughters gym and automate lights for a show twice a year. The Ented used to work, but due to documented problems with Apple/FTDI my Entec no longer works.

Here is a response from Entec support for anyone interested:( I have basically no budget to work with, so The Kedsum is cheaper than the Entec if it is an option) THANKS!!!
Some people get it to work, but a small number do not, when it comes to the Mac version of QLC+ and that interface. If you go up to the DMX USB PRO, it's reliable and we can support that. If you stick to Windows, likewise for even the Open DMX USB< to a decent extent. The combination that you're asking for, however, is problematic to troubleshoot. There are so many variables that I've spent literally hours and hours with people and never gotten it to work, but the next person who we talked to that tried, got it working in no time. It may be different versions of QLC+ interacting differently with different OSX versions. We're just not sure of which combination is safe, but it's not well documented..
If you can get it to work easily, then great. If you can't you'll probably waste a lot of time on this and there's no guarantee of light at the end of the tunnel I'm afraid.
Best of luck,
