I have a small network switch that has a pi4 running falcon player, my advatek controller and has a spare ethernet cable so I can plug my laptop in. Whilst my laptop is plugged in I can access FPP and the controller. If I am on the FPP wifi network, I cannot access the controller but I can...

This begs the question. Which forums do people use. I have found ACL and Falcon. Are there any other big ones i'm missing?

Just an update/thought dump. Still the same design as before. With a different spinner, and a line on the roof is gone. So confusing with numbers calculating everything! Have barely thought about power flow or how the data will come out of the controller. Thinking of mounting controller...

So it has. Thank you :) It looks like a neat piece of software.

Has anyone heard of a system that would allow the following (or similar)... - Allow viewers to scan a QR code and/or go to a website - Be able to vote on which song they would like to see play in the display - Aggregate the votes from above and play most voted on songs - Play on shuffle with no...

Should I be posting these updates here or somewhere else? I want to just keep a log for my own purposes too look back on as well as provide anyone who stumbles across it a chance to yell at me if I make a horrible mistake that will fry all my lights (or something along those lines). I have had...

Thank you for your feedback. Will have a chat too the business owner and check how much he is willing to risk... Went with those trees over megatree's because they will be harder to vandal. The building MAY have screens in the windows by the end of the year. Might focus on some sort of...

Alright, here are the rough layout I am planning on using. Still need to calculate the actual amount of nodes needed. This is on a corner with a roundabout, with good viewing straight on from either side, but not from the corner (due to a roundabout). Although this is a commercial building, I...

Will post it in the show off board once I have a more finalised song. :P (link worked!) RE the milsestone lights, thank you so much for that board idea. Keeping it in mind, but that project has been left in the dust the past few weeks as I have gotten over excited researching different...

Does anyone have any suggestions for cheap controllers to test and play around with pixels/power injection before I get a beefier controller? I want to be able to control it from xlights. And have at least 2 universes.

In the professional lighting world consoles like the MA2 are extremely versatile for busking live performances using professional LX fixtures. Is there any equivalent piece of hardware or software that allows busking with pixels? Obviously you can use art net to control pixels and run some...

Um hi... I am technodisney I am an Aussie living in Melbourne. I am a Live Production student in Melbourne and I have LX/DMX knowledge for use in stage shows/corporate events, but this seems to just be a whole other beast. (I knew and understood Art-Net, 512 channels in a DMX universe and 1...

There is now a raspberry pi 4. Which was not mentioned in v3 (because it wasn't out)

I have been researching how to achieve what I want, but as far as I can tell, no one has done anything similar. Christmas light displays seem too be the closest thing I can find (in the diy space). I am looking to make a sign similar to the one at the bottom of the post. But instead of just...
