    First Pixel Order – Would Love Some Advice

    My garage matrix uses 2cm spaced seeds. There was JUST enough wire between two seeds to fit and RJ12 plug on. My clear wire seeds seemed to go into the plugs slightly easier than the black wire used by @darylc and @B4IGO. (Note that black should give you better UV resistance. Mine have been on...

    FPP on Raspberry Pi CM4 with MCUZone CM4-4G Carrier Board

    So, I've just followed the post by @Skymaster above and used FPP 8.5.1. USB worked without the need to edit config.txt (which is now located in /boot/firmware/config.txt). When I commented out otg_mode and added dr_most=host it resulted in USB not working at all.

    Mounting & Protecting Moving Heads on Roof

    What sort of roof do you have (tiled, etc)? I have a couple of MH to play with and possibly use this year. I was considering using the brackets typically used for solar panel mounting rails, the build a platform off those. I've only just plugged one in for a few mins to confirm it powers up, so...

    12v pebble lights - order from Australia or overseas

    With regards to small seed spacing making it hard to connect pigtails, there are a few options which may or may not work depending on your specific application: 1. The use of a crimp on connector (e.g. 4p4c style) - can be difficult to get the wire inserted prior to crimping, may not work as...

    Seed Pixel Matrix using Bunnings Sheet

    I'm really happy with how it turned out. Here are two videos I took of it tonight: https://photos.app.goo.gl/kuG3jwK5JNtMBmJq9 Hopefully I can get a proper writeup together some time in the next few weeks. Ultimately I'm looking to release the controllers one way or another so that people who...
