A simple ArtNet proxy for the Anyma uDMX USB to DMX512 Controller and generic clones
You can pick up cheap clones for around AU$30. Look for the ones with a silver USB memory-stick type dongle, and 3-pin XLR connector.

udmx-artnet [-v] [-d] [-a <ip-address>]
-v verbose, display interesting runtime info
-d debug, display debugging info
-a <ip-address> IP address to listen on (defaults to all non-loopback interfaces)
Inspired by Daniel Mack's USB2DMX proxy for FTDI DMX adapters
uDMXArtnet from ilLUTZmination.de did what I needed, but used a constant 2% CPU even when it wasn't doing anything. There was also no author details, no source and no license supplied.
The code here is based largely on combining these two projects:
- Simon Newton's Artnet RDM proxy
- Markus Baertschi's commandline uDMX utility
