Ryan Coomer Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Tom, Download the LecNet 2 software installer. http://www.lectroson...tions-only.html When you run it, connect the venue to your computer via usb. It will connect to it and allow you to install the updated firmware. edit: more specifically, once you install the software, run the VRPanel for Venue Receiver from your programs folder. It will detect the Venue. From the file menu, select update firmware and choose the hex file. You will need to restart the Venue while holding the two buttons to the left of the LCD. It will walk you through the rest of the process. -Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Wielage Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Doh, I've been too frightened to upgrade my Venue software. If I can stop working for a few days, I plan to do this. I get very nervous updating anything right before a new job... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about android? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Coomer Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Diego, I'm not sure exactly what Lectrosonics has planned for development for OSX, but I hope they add support. There are software packages that allow you to run windows software in OSX without doing a full installation. I've used them in the past and they can be a life saver - when they work. Setup can be a bit tricky, and not all software works, but If you are tech savvy, you should be able to give it a try. Setting up LecNet like this is on my Todo list, but I'm not sure when I will be able to get to it. CrossOver. Commercial, with some direct support Wineskin. Open source with community support -Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
