    Laptop vs ???

    interesting. I'm just getting started in this RGB pixel controller stuff, so bare with me. I was planning on using an wt32-ETH01 as the controller for this display. No music. Are you saying that might be all I need? or will I need both an esp32 and the wt32-eth01 one as the controller and one...

    Laptop vs ???

    Currently I'm using an old laptop to run my show. I've seen people using a raspberry PI as well. What are the other options out there? The reason I'm asking is that my situation is kinda weird. I'm not running a show for the shows sake. My show is a small production that people see while they...

    Looking for smaller bullet type smart pixels

    I might be getting the terminology wrong here but what I currently have are these. amazon I would like something with a similar form factor, but smaller in size. The LEDs above are, I believe, designed to fit into an 8mm hole, I'd really like something that would fit in a 4mm hole. With...

    Singing Face Mouth Map

    I actually just did that. Or at least something very similar. I'll update the pdf soon. I'll add the node ranges too. And the model data map.

    Singing Face Mouth Map

    I couldn't find a smart pixel light map for the mouth phonemes that I liked so I spent a few hours putting one together. I figured that some of you might find it useful. I also figure that as soon as someone looks at this they'll go "Oh, that's just like this one you can download here" LOL. But...

    wt32-eth01 running WLED and what went wrong

    First off, I want to thank everyone who helped me with my struggles with what should have been a simple task. So... Thanks everyone who helped! Take a peek at this thread to see all that if you like, but I'll summarize it here. I want to use a WT32-eth01 to run some standalone props with...

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    Yeah this looks like something recent. Possibly due to the "chip shortages" in the last couple years. lots of counterfeit and pirate chips hitting the market i guess.

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    The first one I bought was from Hi-Letgo, then next batch was from ATNSINC , both via Amazon. And I couldn't figure out how to contact them to see if they could resolve the problem. Hopefully the adafruit module will work, but if not, at least I can contact them.

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    Yep, thanks. VID_10C4 and PID_EA60 are the correct VID/PID that these should come with. Mine have all had 11ca and 0204 which are wrong. And as far as I can tell you cant change these without pulling the chip off the board loading it onto an eprom burner and re configuring them. Although I sound...

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    This is what I'm finding as well as I dig into this. How do you check to see if the chips are genuine FTDI ? I suppose you need to look at the actual module after buying it?

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    I have the correct drivers, but they won't install for the module I have because the VID/PID are incorrect. And in windows you can't force feed a driver onto a device. At least I haven't been able to yet. How long ago did you but those modules from aliexpress? if it was more than a year ago...

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    Well, I tried that and it came close to working. well, closer at least. I was able to get WLED install to see the module but the module still wouldn't connect to the wt32. Thanks for the help though.

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    Yep. it's not that it's not finding the wt32-eth01, it's that the cp212x isn't being recognized as a USB to TTL bridge but as a "verifone to printer bridge" The chip on the module is programed wrong from the factory and the windows drivers won't recognize it. I've ordered a few of these and it...

    gotcha, no worries.

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    The link you sent is for a "DC 4.5V-30V Voltage Comparator Module" not a usb adapter. The adapters I've bought are all pre programed with the wrong VID/PID (not sure what that really means) I've bought 4 of these from different sellers on amazon and they are all programed wrong. it seems like a...
