    Default FPP and Video

    Hi All -- New to xlights and FPP and would like to display videos using a projector. I can play the videos using a virtual matrix but am wondering if there is a way to play the videos directly from the pi tp the projector

    Depending on the Pi, just connect one of the video outputs to the projector and you should be good to go.

    Found the problem - FPP didn't like the encoding of the MP4 file. I used Pinnacle Elements to edit the video and then encoded it to a lower resolution. FPP would play the sound but not the video. After encoding it with a generic Windows video editor it worked!
