    FPP Projector Control

    The projector in permanently mounted on the ceiling in our large atrium. We have a network cable connected to it for control. We were hoping to automate the off/on via this network connection. Is there a variant of the instructions above for network control instead of serial?

    UCS 2904 Pix

    Thanks for taking a look. Yes. I was wondering if they would work with a PiCap and separately, a smart receiver. I'd like to use them in those two separate instances. I'm curious as to the steps of fussing that would be required in Xlights. I guess it's not too surprising that I've only...

    Greetings-- Can I run UCS 2904 pixels from a PiCap and a Falcon Long range receiver? Thanks!

    FPP Projector Control

    I traversed the GitHub previously and I'm either missing it or dont know how to interpret it. Can someone share a screen shot of their config?

    FPP Projector Control

    Is there a manual for Projector Control? I was looking for it and could not find it. Please post a link if possible.

    FPP Projector Control

    We have a NEC PA804UL-W projector and are looking to trigger it on and off each day. NEC's previous software had a control section that would do this, but the newest version (capable with our projector) seems to have eliminated that option. Is anyone familiar with the Projector Control plugin...

    Duplicating groups

    Using Vertical Stack worked perfectly, thanks. All the vertical render styles work in the orientation I am looking for, but Vertical Stack is the purest representation of the effect down the tunnel.

    Duplicating groups

    I created the arches and duplicated them using merryoncherry's xml suggestion, thanks again. The tree was a great idea but I could not get the legs of the arch precise on the preview. I have a follow up. We have 26 arches, each one is connected to its own port on the controller (green square in...

    Duplicating groups

    Awesome, many thanks. I'll get the submodels set up and give this a go.

    Duplicating groups

    Follow-up here.... I used a poly-line and created the model without the group. Now I need to duplicate this model 25 times and place each copy just behind (in real life the arches are 2' apart) each other. Copying then pasting the model modifies each of the of 12 size/location points, so...

    Duplicating groups

    Geez. I had no idea that existed. Thanks!

    Duplicating groups

    Thanks. I need to brush up on submodels, but I think that may be the way to go. If I use a poly line, is there a way to specify the number of px per run? For example, the walls are 39 px and the top is 52.

    Duplicating groups

    Seems like a relatively easy thing to do, but I have not done it before. We are building 26 identical "arches" down a hallway. We've created the first one in xlights, it has 3 models, left, top, and right. We've grouped those 3 models and called it Arch 1. It contains channels 1-508. What is...

    Video in the Preview?

    Thanks. I tried putting the video on a matrix first and that worked, but I wonder if constant re renders may be needed as I change the lighting effects. It wasn't terrible, but that seemed to be the case during initial testing. Yes, the video is on the media file. I compressed the video down to...

    Video in the Preview?

    Hi, I'm designing a light show to a video and I'm wondering if there is a way to put the video (as reference) in the Preview? I do not think this is possible, but I'm wondering how others who sequence to a video do it. Thanks!
