LGTM, just one minor grammar nit.

Nit, grammar wise, it should probably be the techniques used.

An interesting read too @FloEdelmann , thanks for that. Another possible extension, which probably ought to be fairly simple given all the leg work you've done already would be to create another RDM/DMX sniffer like the logic one: Which essentially just tries to decode and print whatever data you've received. I guess missing the top of some frames may make it somewhat less helpful for RDM though... |

Good that the thesis itself was proof-read several times 😃 Yeah, I already thought receiving RDM with this plugin. However, I came to the same conclusion as you did: For DMX, missing a packet is not too bad because it will be sent again later. RDM packets have to be received correctly at the first try though, which is quite unlikely (given that the whole packet needs to fit into one chunk). So I think it won't be too useful. |

More optimised fix for #1369, which tries to be smarter and avoid the problem UID
The online version of my Bachelor's Thesis is finally available!
I've documented the whole development process of a PC-DMX interface using OLA, including my implementation of the SPI DMX Plugin and a corresponding electrical schematic. Thus, I think it will be a useful resource to add to the plugin's README.
Maybe you want to look into it @peternewman and @nomis52 :)
