Web GUI
DMX Storage Channels can also be altered via the HTTP-Server. The interface currently works in most of the Webkit-based browsers (e.g. Google Chrome) and Mozilla Firefox (Version 4+). The interface can be enabled in the [VFS] menu.
Tested browsers:
| Browser | Version | Works |
| Firefox | 23 | yes (see note) |
| Chromium | 28.0.1500.95 | yes |
| Konqueror | 4.10.5 | yes |
| Android Browser | Android 4.3 | yes |
When using Firefox with a version < 23, make sure to enable "Support <input type=range> for Firefox".
