It looks like my Arc 4 can finally connect on Windows 10.
Max is connecting to the Arc and receiving messages. However, the Arc seems like itās not properly responding to messages from Max. None of the lights are showing up on the Arc.
Is there anything that I should look at? Iām just using the standard arc_howto and arc_test patches in the Monome Max package.

Oh, I think Iāve just reproduced the issue with the grid too, looking into it.
UPD: Windows build looks fixed.

Itās super weird that my ARC4 (latest aluminium version) sometimes will be recognised as āxxxx i2cā, although several unplug-replug will fix that. Also Serialosc 1.4 and 1.4.1 constantly crash my max the moment i plug my ARC4 in⦠Iām now using FTDI 2.4.2 and Serialosc 1.2a and it stops crashing my Max but the recognition problem still exist. Iām on El Capitan. Anyone know how to fix this or has the same issue here?

Windows build looks fixed. @trickyflemming can you try downloading serialosc-1.4.1a.exe.zip from the link above and see if there are any problems?
@artfwo Great! The lights are now fixed on Windows.
@tehn Iām now running into the light freeze bug where the lights wonāt update after a few minutes of use. This is happening with capstarc (not EDW like usual).

apologies, can you point me at the original issue?
There are a few reports in here:
I guess this is a bit different. What Iām experiencing is that the Arc stops receiving light updates and āfreezesā its current light settings. It still sends out messages properly. So, there may still be a gremlin in the Windows Serialosc from the last patch.

I havenāt run into the issue on Mac, but I havenāt updated that machine to 1.4.1 yet.

How long does it take the lights to freeze? What happens if you run another patch after the lights freeze?
fixed by uninstall FTDI driver and using the Apple one, serialosc 1.4.1

Iāve got another windows build coming which improves network IO a bit. Would any of you guys like to test it against grids and especially arcs? UPD: PM me for a link.
