Triks-C and the Falcon Player

**XmasInGalt** · 10-01-2014, 07:51 PM

I switched to the 'master' and see the Triks-C output. When I select any layout other than 1X1, I get a Invalid Channel Count 'xxxx' (x being the actual count) on row 1. I have a USB connected and selected in the port setting.
Same behavior on the B and B+.

I may have missed bumping up the max allowed channel count in the sanity check in the JavaScript when I added support for the larger layouts in the back end code. I will get a fix in for that tonight.

OK, I just committed the fix. Sorry about that, you should be able to configure the output now. You just need to go to the About page and pull in the latest updates.

Got it. Thanks. Loaded and working fine. Now on to testing.

Sorry - still have to update my PI to the new build first so haven't tried out the new code quite yet.

I just want to say thanks to CaptainMurdoch, budude, And XmasInGalt. I don't know where you guys find the time to look at this stuff. I am busy working 10/7 and by the the time I walk the dogs and make dinner, I'm done. I will get my Pi out this weekend and look at mine. I just didn't get there this weekend.
Thanks again!

You can thank me once you or someone confirms the code works.

Here is my first test of the Triks-C. My panel is a 1 x 2 configuration. I created the matrix in Nutcracker 96 x 16. I was unable to get it to work in 'bridged' mode so I created a fseq file and loaded it into Falcon.

The first clip is my text matrix with the message "THIS IS A TEST" with the pi configured in the 1 x 2 mode.

After seeing the results above, I changed the config to 2 x 2 mode. Here are the results.

Let me know if you want me to activate some of the log options.

Thanks for the video.

Is the panel on the left configured as #1 and the panel on the right #2?

Can I get the .fseq file so I can run it through my test virtual display here to see what it looks like on that?

I'm looking through the code again now to see if anything stands out.

Forgot to mention, the 1x2 that you tried first is what you should be using.

Also, can you turn on 'excessive' level logging and check the 'channel out' checkbox and then run the test again and grab either the fppd.log file or the whole log zip. The only file I really need to see is fppd.log since it will have some timing information in it that I'd like to see.
