Dear mappers,
MadMapper 5.1 is now out with a new extension: MadProjectorControl
The extension (which starts at 5.9€/month excl tax) allows you to control your video-projectors remotely through the network using the PJLink protocol (h[url]ttps://pjlink.jbmia.or.jp/english[/url])
With the help of MadMapper’s Calendar Scheduler & Cue Scheduler, you can also fully automate your installation, removing the need for a dedicated operator!
There are many more news too such as the support of Moncha DAC and AVB/Dante by MadLaser, the Mad Curves widget, the new generator GPU particles or the new Gallery on the website.
It's all listed below!
