Hi guys, is there a known bug with the testing page on F16V3 running 2.59? I have a problem that i thought was cable data related but through some testing via FPP and xLights i have come to the conclusion that this is isolated here. It looks to me that it is muddling up the channels while running from the test page. Every other test i have run (including sequences) are perfect so i am confident that there is no actual problem with the channel data.

This is a known issue with the test function unfortunately. All or nothing is the best way to test. It does mix and match channels sometimes and light up stuff you dont want if you do individual stuff.
 
Good to hear. Up until now these past couple of years i have only ever used the “All” function of the testing page so this never was a problem for me.
 
Yes it has been a bug iv come accross a few times that really stumped me

I found resetting the board and repushing the config seemed to fix it, but overwriting old config muddled everything in test,

All this time i thought i was crazy, good to know :p
 
I found just refreshing/reloading the browser which then showed which ports the "glitch" had selected. Then you can deselect them and select the ones you wanted.
After a couple of years doing this it got to the point of having to reflash the firmware because I lost all network connectivity to it.
 
I've had a few issues in the past and I think when you upload a new config it doesn't wipe everything and start again. It seems to overwrite but no erase unused ports/channel data. Also the voltage has been reported incorrectly on one side, I just ignore it.
