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...
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...
I might be getting the terminology wrong here but what I currently have are these.

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...
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...
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...
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.
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.
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...
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?
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...
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.
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...
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...
