Welcome to the show!

Think about stacking everything. The power supply on the bottom flat, and a second layer above that for all the electronics. This gives more space on each plane. It might help to look at some vendors and the ready2run controller pictures to check how others do a layout. Also, look here for...

Check which directory you are pointed to and if you are doing a recursive search for sequence files.

To my knowledge they don't match what you might call a known standard. You are free to cut the ends off and use whatever 3 wire connectors your feel most comfortable with.

Have you tried rotating the OLED in the case? :D Seriously, I think this is a more fundamental OS level issue than a FPP issue. You can set certain startup display options for different screens and such and remember doing it a long time ago. I just have poor memory and cannot remember what...

Some gents wear earrings! :)

While I cannot comment on swapping the two data lines, I would really like to see how your controller is setup even if the data lines fix the issue. From the one screenshot it looks like the Baldrick might be setup as a generic controller which might cause issues later on.

I see you have a bunch of Ts but no pigtails. Not sure if you need 50 Ts but pigtails always come in useful to have on hand.

I originally started with strips in tube but the effects are fairly limited to what they will do. I also found mine to be more twitchy to assemble and run. I switched over to 3 row pixel arches and like them more. However, I really really liked the way the arches looked when they worked but...

HI, So for these sorts of things it would be best to post the link to the product instead of a simple image. The image does not provide enough information. Based upon some of the text that can be seen that looks like a kit for bending copper a/c lines and not electrical conduit. There are a...

Do those prices included shipping or is shipping an additional cost. I've been quoted both ways before and if shipping is not included the price per pixel was lower for standard 2811 12v pixels. To be honest I did not bulk order last year so not really sure what the bulk pricing is currently at...

It's easy, just warm up the screw cap with a blow dryer or heat gun just enough to make it flexible and pull it off. Just repeat the process to put it on.

Remember the topper! For a Megatree I would push each strand as alternating nodes so I start and stop at the bottom of the string. Then this would allow me to easily put 2 strings per port for only 6 ports and have 2 ports left over for the topper!

Combination of kasa outdoor dual outlets and Ikea smart plugs for the garage and have worked fine for 2 years now.

I suddenly want my first singing prop, and it needs to be a giant Santa!
