Kling-Net: makes LED devices Plug’n Play
Mar/104
At ArKaos, it’s now many years we’re developing software that drives LEDs in a way or another: our media server software MediaMaster and our VJ software GrandVJ are used every day to drive LED fixtures or LED walls, and of course we have the LED Mapper extension which, combined with MediaMaster, creates a very easy solution to map visuals on complex setups of DMX driven LED walls.
However there is still something that makes it too complicated and / or too expensive for anyone to display visuals on LED devices: setup…

We’ve been working hard since 3 months on the next upgrade of MediaMaster: the version 1.1 which will be released in a few days.

Here is the result:
