Hi Merry As usual you came up trumps for me, after a few more hours and this time using xlights individual output to lights node making sure that the correct physical node was in the correct hole when re wiring the prop , I think that it is now wired correctly. I have done sub model tests of...

Thanks for your help here , I will look at all these things tomorrow.

Unfortunately my prop does not have a printed path so I am to some extent working blind When powered up all of the rings are lit fine but when I try the spokes as it were there are two or three out of line , I have checked these in X lights and they do light up as they are supposed to I.e. no 34...

My prop does not have the path printed as it was sourced from the UK, however I did download this pic and have followed it together with the xlights diagram I have it on a Baldric controller on one port with power balancing and it is set to the channel start from xlights upload to controller as...

How do you power inject 4 wire pixels , do you just cut the red positive wire from the first supply and leave the negative to join the new one or do you also have to cut the negative from the first supply also? I assume you leave it to provide the joint return path for the data which was joined...

Thank you Skymaster, It was the wiring on the DMX plug at fault (I need to get my specs changed) I have corrected this now and I can output test from the Falcon and from a sequence in xlights However at present I cannot get a sequence to play from FPP , but this could be down to the uploads...

Hi All I am trying to set up 2 DMX floods in xlights but having no luck getting them to work, I have made a ethernet to dmx lead using the pin outs and colors shown in the manual and have configured the floods to channels d001 and d008 on there settings. These are sequenced into xlights and...

Adding a projector to an existing setup with the pi already added with a Hanson rp28+ , how do I add the virtual projector setup? Do I add this in fpp and then draw the matrix in xlights, if so will this add the correct path in the visualiser I have looked at the videos on line but all seems to...

Thanks Skymaster seems I did not have the variant checkbox correct in xlights, I will give the boot delay a try to see if the audio gets fixed As I am in the UK we do not use FM transmitters

I am having problems with FPP V7.2 which I upgraded several months ago. It appears that although i have set the audio to usb output from the Pi 3b+ and hit save and reboot , sometimes after switcing off and back on it again defaults to dummy output? Also i have a hanson 28D+ attached to the pi...

yes I changed it when upgrading to v7

This is the extract from the on line manual, although it was from 2021, and may not be correct now, however I have my fingers crossed that it works for me FSEQ files The FSEQ sequence files must be in one of the following versions: FSEQ - V1 FSEQ - V2 Uncompressed FSEQ - V2 ZLIB...
