MADRIX Forum

Hi!

Thank you for your post.

Could you please let us know which fixture models you are using?

On the one hand, let's look at what the software is able to do and on the other hand how the hardware is capable of performing.
I have the impression that the Hue fixtures and bridge simply cannot perform in the way that you are expecting.
You are mentioning the 1000 ms, which indicates 1 frame per second. I think that is what your are experiencing and what your video shows. With high-performing LED fixtures and controllers, the MADRIX 5 Software would be able to send data to the fixtures much faster.

I'll also ask the developers if the developer API provides any new features since their last update.

Thank you.

Philips themselves indicate these performance characteristics. Please see:

I have received additional suggestions:

The more lamps are controlled by a bridge, the lower the frame rate will be.
Please try to control a maximum of 10 lamps per bridge. In our tests, we could achieve 100 ms / 10 FPS in this way.
And please note that more load is added to the WiFi, the more bridges are used. Spacing them out can help in reducing interference.

Thank you for your tests and confirmation!

In addition, please note that the MADRIX 5 license does not count universes, but only used channels.
As such, you would not occupy 4 universes.

Regarding MADRIX AURA, correct, it cannot send out data to Hue.
However, MADRIX 5 itself has scheduling capabilities, mainly by using the Cue List.

Many thanks.
