Robe XML DMX chart #517

Closed fxedel closed 3 years ago

fxedel commented 6 years ago

Robe offers DMX charts for its fixtures as PDF or XML: https://www.robe.cz/megapointe/download/#dmx-charts

The XML version can be easily parsed; there's already a python converter to QLC+ (see mcallegari/qlcplus#1028).

The format doesn't seem to be used in any software, so this would be a good import plugin for reliable fixture data, but export isn't needed.

It actually links to rdm.openlighting.org!

Apparently, Robe went all-in on GDTF and removed the XML DMX charts from their website :worried:

So this format is no longer interesting as an import plugin.
