Lemur Bi-directional communication is now only one way

That’s certainly how it appears.

You should reach out to Waves and ask them what they’re doing with UDP ports at random values

I’ve got a phone meeting in 15 minutes, will contact them directly afterward.

I’ve just sent a description of the issue to Waves, though from my experience they don’t respond as quickly as the Gig Performer gurus.

In the meantime you will have plenty of time to play and properly configure wireshark. Perhaps it could tell you when the Wave plugin start to use the port…

Hi David-san,
Thanks for sending the Wireshark filter specs. Spent yesterday working on the music I should’ve been doing the past week, but this morning the same thing happened with Waves local taking over the GP listening port. This udp issue is way out of my knowledge and comfort zone, but tried applying your filter and got a syntax error. Please check my screenshot, did I mistype something?

The last character is a closing ROUND bracket and not the SQUARE bracket you used :wink:

Ah, thanks. The devils in the details and programming is unforgiving when it comes to syntax. Tried again entering capture filter in Wireshark, but still got a syntax error. Perhaps a space? Screenshot attached. Also, found out some very interesting empirical info this morning. Launched Lemur and Gig Performer, ran Terminal and noticed GP and Waves again using the same port (second screenshot). Opened my OSC test gig, which uses no Waves plugins and bi-directional communication between the two worked normally. Then I opened my performance gig, which does use Waves. The load hung and I had to force quit GP. Finally made the connection that this had happened a few times before, always at the same point during rackspace loading. A quick check down each rackspace’s wiring showed that the first rackspace to use a Waves plugin loaded, but it hung at the second rackspace containing Waves. After force quitting, a second load attempt always succeeded, but the bi-directional communication was lost until I changed the listening port number on GP and Lemur. Not sure what it means, but found it quite curious.

Don’t put anything in this field, but in the filter display field (look at my screenshot) once the capture is started. It would be nice to catch the first time the wave plugin grabs this port…

Also, I’m curious as to how Waves manages to create a port using the same number or one just close to ours.

Can you try changing the GP port to something radically different, e.g., 6754 and see what Waves does

Tried your suggestion and yes, the Waves port is chasing GP’s port every time. Changed port on Lemur and GP to 6975, shut down, rebooted laptop, launched GP and ran Terminal. Waves is sharing new port number. I’m going to change port number again, reboot and initiate a Wireshark capture before anything else.

This makes no sense to me – unless Waves is explicitly looking at our settings (and that’s extremely doubtful since they continue to claim they don’t even support GP), there’s no way they could be doing this. There’s something else going on here.

Here is the capture file from Wireshark after changing GP/Lemur’s port to 53547, rebooting and launching GP. Also Terminal query result. Hope it sheds some light on the issue.

Well, it is unreadable, please apply some Wireshark display filters at least on the observed UDP ports.

Wire shark isn’t helpful here. We need to know why the port is being opened. Wireshark will only report actual messages coming in or going out.

Wireshark could help to identify the event that triggers the use of the port by this Wave plugin. I would be curious to know what this plugin is tying to do at all on an UDP port. It seems it uses the last port opened by GP…

David-san, yes, that’s exactly what appears to be going on, though how would I format such a capture filter? Use the same command you suggested and = the udp port number used by GP/Lemur instead of == a port range?

Then a screenshot should be enough, as it is a display filter…

Just to be sure, (very inexperienced at this level of operations) I’d format the capture display filter as osc.message.header && (udp.dstport=the actual port number used by GP)?

I would start doing something like:

osc.message.header || udp.dstport==<the actual port number used by GP> || udp.dstport==<the initial port number used by the Wave plugin>

This will display any OSC communication and any communication on the UDP ports of interest. The Wave plugin is probably not using the OSC protocol, and it could be interesting to see what it is doing with the GP UDP port.
