AndrewGrant Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Hi, From my experience scrollers usually port across ok. I have had problems though with some parameters on moving lights (shutters, zoom etc...)I've got a 520 nearby if you'd like me to take a look.

neilalexrose Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 2nd from bottom of this page here if the strand OLE created by the blueroom's own Mac.Calder. If you download that, you can do the conversion and load your newly created file into the strand OLE and check to see if it works. As to whether it transports scroller info across, it depends how the show was plotted on the expression. But if I know anything about conversion between consoles (and recently I've spent a bit of time on the subject), I suspect that scroller info is stored differently from console to console, and you will be out of luck. If you can get a show file out of the strand OLE then you can pre-plot, but I failed (on mac) and had to use Dosbox instead when converting from Eos to strand. Good luck!
