CITP streaming limitations?
Hello,
I was trying to configure Madrix to stream CITP data to grandma onPC and was struggling to get it to work.
What I ultimately found is that in Madrix using my defined matrix of 256x128 CITP data would not stream to onPC. When I change this to 128x64 (half the size) it does stream fine.
Are there limitations on the size of the matrix that can be streamed via CITP? Is this a bug in Madrix? a bug in onPC?
If there are limitations could you please update the help file to reflect them.
Thanks,
Jason

Re: CITP streaming limitations?
Hi Jason,
.
Thank you for your inquiry!
.
I have received more information on this. It depends on the CITP/MSEX versions, on the file format, and what features are implemented in the controller (such as MADRIX).
.
MADRIX currently supports only RGB8 when streaming data and there is a limit: Up to 21,823 pixels.
.
Your 256x128 pixels are 32.768 pixels.
.
We will update the help files accordingly.

Thank you!

Thank you for the quick reply and clarification. Very helpful.
You may also consider displaying a warning when the CITP server is activated with a matrix size that is too large or when the matrix is resized too large and the CITP server is already active.
"Warning: Matrix size too large for CITP streaming. Matrix can't exceed <limit> total pixels." - or something similar.
