    2023 is done, starting to plan for 2024: what will you keep, what will you change?

    I didn't make my mega tree in 2023, but did get all the electrical components. So I should make it. I may add more icicles this year on my peaks. I may retire my north pole sign with matrix (my old tune to sign before I got the EFL Radio). Maybe add more snowflakes. But other than that I...

    Light flickering

    What brightness and how many pixels on the strand ? If the pixels at the start of the strand are OK it could be a voltage drop issue. I had an issue with that this year. Cycling RGBW Off , I have flickering on White when there is the most current draw.

    I put all my winter display props out in 1 day, then cabled the next day and turned them on that night. I could have possibly done it all in oneday but i started late and finished early on the first day. My house has conduit clips all over the front that stay up all year round

    What are you changing this year? Elements you are building or installing for 2023

    Minleon Pixels

    Has anyone used any Minleon pixels and able to give any feedback ? I'm looking into putting some permanent house lines up and was wondering if the Minleon strips may be a good option. Cheers Steve

    Hanson RPi-28D+ upgrade probs with FPP6

    I didn't pay 10 bucks and finally got Alan's logo on my start up screen. I also managed to get the use of the WS2801 port back. I had to open the advanced user UI so I could select the rPi-28D eeprom and then I got it back and the logo.

    Hanson RPi-28D+ upgrade probs with FPP6

    Are you using the DPIPixel configuration ? If not you don't need to do anything with the EEPROM. I successfully setup a rPi-28D+ with Raspberry Pi 4B+ lastweek to test 5V seed pixels
