Resolume OSC Settings

The next step is to go to the Resolume settings and go to the OSC tab.

Step 03

Player Port Configuration

Then go to the OSC tab in SHOWTIMEPLAYER.

  • At the bottom, we see the Broadcast port. This is the port to which the program broadcasts commands over the network to all PC addresses.
  • Let's say you have many stations and PCs on the network, and it will send to all addresses via broadcast. You may have Resolume or other programs running on this port; all of them will receive data.

Step 04

Unicast Addressing

If you want to configure sending only for Resolume, so that the data is sent only to a specific PC.

  • You need to add a unicast address. Commands will be sent only to it.
  • If you have several Resolume instances or other OSC programs, you can assign them separate addresses and ports.
