The Projectors i use are Sony VPL-FHZ55 LCD Projector, i dont understand all this 1080p, 4K Hype they use. Ohh when i had the projectors at a basic 800x600 in xlights, the picture was very sharp, but xlights took 3hrs to render it. I have a distance of 10m+ between projector an public.. i was...

Hi there, I use 3x Rasp Pi 4's for my 4 projectors. The Question you need to ask, What size of a virtual display are you wanting pixel wise, I use 216 high x 384 wide (eg 82,044pixels or 348,832channels) I designed mine before Greg put his video's out, But i've re-watched them to get the...

I use "6 white boomers",

I only had that issue when buying cheap china crap. Since then i pay the extra an try an get the local stores to price match to get it cheaper

If you contact someone from the falcon support team, Im sure they would be able to tell you the part or even sell you it. (they might even have photo's or video of how easy it is to swap them over)

if you have voltage on all outputs, but not data on all it would be what @Katekate said with on of the black chips letting out the smoke.. (thats why thy are in sockets as it can happen)

Got any screen shots of the Software you made? What operating system is it for? can it handle 2.5million channels.

O.k. i will bite, Yes this is a simple setup, But you are ignoring the facts of pixel lighting. the reason CargoLights talked about power injection, is ezactly that. to inject power when the voltage starts to get lower. eg start of a 12v string is 12v , but after 100pixels it could be like 8v...
