Anyone have any leads on a driver for this stuff that can be controlled by RS232? Lots of IR options but I see very little for RS232 or DMX. I see some things but they look a little sketchy. Any first hand experience would be appreciated.

What's your control system??

I know Control4, Crestron and Extron have drivers for this guy in the link below.

I can confirm, as I use it at home, this little box kicks ass.

RTI introduced a 2-way driver for this DMX-ish product in 2014.

I have not used it and there's not much forum traffic on it, but it claims functionalities reminiscent of a Hypothetical RS232 controlled DMX interface.

Craig Douglas is the principle there and is happy to engage deeply on this subject. I doubt any of the 1000 clone cheap IR controlled LED strips will give you what you are looking for. Has drivers for all of the major control systems. I haven't used the product yet but he gave a me a hell of a education on it.

I am always amazed at how quickly I can get a great answer from here. Both of those options look promising. Thank you.
