Very might the same here, show was built to run under water, controllers might need some floaties though.
I still get visitors when it's raining and one or two FB messages asking if it going to run.
It's weird, but some people enjoy touring around / sitting in their car while it rains, those...
Just a update on this whole crazy thing. Literally out of time for anything else, time to move to prop build.
But have managed to get things together, at the very least I wanted to give this a shakedown on my own display this year.
FPP Plugin
FPP plugin has been fully written, tested and seems...
I use Dropbox quite heavily like fasteddy, that way it's all being synced and backup on every change. Restoring files is a few clicks.
what I also do is once my show goes live I make copy of the FPPs USB drive with the sequences and prep another USB with everything, and do a FPP settings backup...
omg it's aliveeeeeeeeee.
4 hours of careful coding and chin scratching - polling & playing of the highest voted playlist item via the website is a thing now.
FPP doesn't support or can't (probably for obvious reason) go play a playlist when it's running a scheduled playlist. Seems to cause FPP...
I think you have to remove them and add them with the right channel count..
It might be easier to do that since you only have 16 universes, you can edit the xlights_networks.xml file where all this info is stored but probably not worth the effort for a small channel count
Re-add the a in one...
xLights should be set to be 510 channels (170 pixels worth per universe) as OzAz said (512 each for the 4 DMX outputs if want those in, I have them in so all my channel counts flow together and I don't have to shuffle things around if I expand etc.).
I don't use xLights to program my show...
Hi All,
I've been working on a project on and off for the past year or so. It's primary focus is allowing/enabling voting on sequences in my display and secondary as a Christmas light finder for my local community.
I'm intending to let viewers use this functionality in 2017
The aim was to make...
Had the same thing happen on my controllers, the PCB headers grip the legs so tightly.
Wriggling sometimes helps, but there's little holding those legs in the plastic bit. Or it could just be the cheap fuses they use.
Any case, jump on ebay and get yourself 50 / 100 lol

That's a crazy amount of pixels / output, I could almost run my MegaTree from one output lol.
This will definitely help with filling out the trees in the garden. With 320 pixels I found I was running short with trees only sporting 42 pixels each ( have something like 30 trees/shrubs in a 10m x...

P10 matrix 3x5 for SMS, animations, issue is waterproofing I guess as I want it on the roof.
17 RGB stars (7x20cm and 7x60cm [coro]) across the roof
Coro piano keys (1 octave)
2 Starburst Stars /Fireworks
Another arch
More fill in the main display garden
