    Push Button Speaker Box with Built in FM Receiver - As presented at the Perth 2023 Mini

Search outdoor speakers and here is an example. https://www.amazon.com.au/Pyle-PLMR24B-3-5-Inch-Weather-Speaker/dp/B0071I0Q5S/ But you could just as easily use indoor speakers inside the button box with some separation from the outside of...

    Bunnings lights with Controller System?

    Very few of those free sequences will have any sequences to support for your basic bunnings lights. You can run that controller in "classic" mode and it will act like a big 8 function controller. You can use Vixen or xLights to create sequences that will do single string programming and use...

    WLED/WT32-ETH01 Wiring Help

    It is very common to wire ground to ground when using a converter and 12v. As Martin would say "data and V- go together and join V+ V- as close to the pixel as possible". Of course there is the opportunity to connect 12v to ground and possibly let out the magic smoke but you could do that to...

    WLED/WT32-ETH01 Wiring Help

    I don't know if you have a good ground for the data signal to your pixels. You might try taking the ground off your level converter and connect to the ground on the pixels along with the 12v ground. Did you solder your connections or did you just put wires in the holes or did solder pins and...

    Low Brightness and gamma

    Did you try the gamma lookup table generator? At gamma 2.0 it shows the output to be zero all the way up to 11. Move cursor right over the gamma line and it shows a little popup with the specific values. So, if you tell your R,G,B pixel to output 11,11,11 you would expect a very light white...

    Falcon Player - Start Video Playlist at certain position using HTTP API command

    I wonder if your sequence idea would work? Have you played around with that at all? If you are you a programmer, look into forking FPP and then look at the sections of code for the player, playlist, api, media and vlc sections. It seems to this non C++ programmer that a lot of stuff is already...

    Falcon Player - Start Video Playlist at certain position using HTTP API command

    Interesting inquiry. Probably something that could be written into the api but your post brings up a perplexing question. How did you come to FPP and not use sequence files? What is your use case?

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    In case anyone is interested...WLED has a list of controllers. A high number of which will run espixelstick firmware as well. Some of these are interesting variants, some are just yet another led controller. https://kno.wled.ge/basics/compatible-controllers/

    Esp32 with ethernet for a stand alone prop.

    You wouldn't attach the esp32 to the other controllers. You would just run a esp32 with either wled or espixelstick and send e1.31 or ddp to the esp32. Likely you have a pc running xlights doing the controlling for your CTB? Then add a cheap access point and connect your PC to the access point...

    FPP Projector Control

    This video at this point talks about one way (serial) to setup a projector: View: https://youtu.be/OJopBp2YJxc?t=481 How are you trying to connect your projector? Are you using Ethernet? That is what PJLINK is for. The plugin doesn't have many options really. Where are you having problems...

    FPP Projector Control

    Did you try one of the other NEC projectors? Especially for on/off, likely one of them will work.

    Any Way to Make Display More Interactive?

    My xschedule has remote falcon built-in. Didn't set it up but would likely be the same process as detailed previously.
