MIDI Sliderboards w/ remote visualizers don't work on macOS #92

Closed dljsjr closed 7 years ago

Required Info
Version or commit hash a6c6adf30e7cb0ffd423efdd0022d5010c3f8903
Sim or Real Robot N/A
Operating System macOS Sierra
JDK Oracle JDK 1.8.0_102

Steps to reproduce issue

Plug a USB MIDI slider board in to a macOS machine, and launch a remote visualizer. Find a YoVariable that is bound to a slider channel, and plot it. Move the slider.

Expected behavior

The value of the YoVariable should update as the slider moves.

Actual behavior

Sliderboards seem to "read" correctly, as when using a motorized mixer the channel slides will move in to place at startup. But moving any of the controls on the mixer will not update the YoVariables accordingly.

I've also heard reports that this is true for Windows but I don't have any confirmation yet.

I've verified that sliderboards work fine when the server and client are run locally on macOS.

I've also run the server in a Linux virtual machine and connected to it with a remote visualizer run on the macOS host machine. Sliderboard worked as expected
