Doesn't matter which OS, ultimately I would route/read it to Max/Msp.

The processing 123 example may have worked on a Windows XP several years back but I think Microsoft may have crippled UDP after that time.
I can see UDP broadcast packets from an esp8266 with Wireshark on a win10 pc but I have had no success with any other software ( Ex lazarus or processing 123) it seems to get blocked in the low level Microsoft middleware support for sockets...I suspect Wireshark is closer to the hardware and gets around the Microsoft middleware.
