Martin, You said what I meant and in a much better way. I didn't think the software mattered either. Since most transfer will be done on the SD...

You have a pretty loaded front yard display -- and the example was a test sequence? Couple thoughts for you: to make the mini-trees pop and be the...

Try this. https://falconchristmas.com/forum/index.php/topic,8988.15.html Tom Marshall did an excellent job putting this together.

It MIGHT be possible on the ESP32 things, but not on esp8266. There isn't enough memory on the esp8266 to hold the dictionaries and such that are...

I think you misunderstand. TODAY in xLights there is a mechanism to send a configuration AND fseq files to (among other things) an ESP. 'FPP Connect'...

Dan - Please tell us that FPP will still be able to use uncompressed files. Some of us use more/other than xLights to build our files and send them...

Hey Martin, Could the Espixelstick software detect compression on upload and uncompress for local use? This would keep the load off the CPU during...

A few thoughts on this comment: Compressed or not compressed does not matter even if the PI is playing the file to a local controller. When the...

thanks I have seen that but don't like how they implemented it cause it forces auto to the timing bars vs being able to drag and drop like others but...

I do not use xLights, I use Vixen. I do not use compression. Don't see the need for it. My hat is 512 pixels and the largest fseq has only been...

Just a remonder the Halloween/Christmas expo is in a couple weeks. Make sure you get your tickets now. Let me know if you'll be there. Adam

Okay but how do you configure the setup display? The colorlight panels do not have an IP address to direct it to. Normal I would setup a controller...

I think we need to be careful here. I am a vixen user and it looks like we are mixing terminology and wandering into the Nodes per node aka group...

I could see some simple coro candy canes lining the walkway between your front door and garage door nicely. I agree with the tree too, you could a...

Sorry but this seems to contradict? You're saying that the settings of "lights per node" do affect how the lights receive the data / info but...

There appears to be a huge tree in your front yard. So many things you could do with that. Wrap more branches, fill it with ornaments, put icicles...

the flat surface on your roof can use some love. snowflakes, huge grid etc.

I've seen the best lights of this kind on eBay. I had bought 10 meters.

The option to create uncompressed files is likely going away at some point. You WILL need to use FPP Connect to get the sequences uploaded to the...

The matrix does not care where you put output 1. You tell FPP your start location in the “LED Panel Layout”. The Model Start Corner has nothing to...

Actually it does affect the lights. You are proramming how the lights receive info. Follow Martin's guidance.

Jon or Jeff might be better suited to answer this... however, you can drag the matrix/grid any direction you want. The problem is most things will...

Ah okay great so those settings are just for the preview. Glad it doesn't affect the actual performance of the lights. Thanks, -Russ
