    OLED Display in Argon EON Case (Raspberry Pi 5) – Mirrored and Dim Output

    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...

    Last Bullet Pixel in 270 pixel String Won't Light Up With Xlights But Will With Baldrickboard Software.

    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.

    First Pixel Order – Would Love Some Advice

    Air seed tubing leaping arches vs pixel hole leaping arches

    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...

    Tube and pipe bender

    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...

    First Pixel Order – Would Love Some Advice

    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...

    Pigtail screw cap

    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.

    Singing light bulbs

    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!

    3D printer questions

    Do you want to print thing or have printing things your hobby? There is a difference there. If you want printing as a hobby then you can follow misterfied's advice and get something cheap and work through all the issues that come with it and learn stuff as you go along. If you just want to...
