It's not possible to do it in Catalyst yet .

Since a little widget can easily do this convertion .... I don't see why Catalyst don't .

Because DMX can only describe 65,535 frames - or 43 minutes, 41 seconds, 10 frames at 25 fps, or 36 minutes, 24 seconds and 15 frames @ 30 fps.

yes, you can help and ask all the desk manufacturers to get dmx 32 or 64 bit and same with art-net. better stuff with bidirektional communication, like each visualisation software communicates with lighting desks.
