[QUOTE="Skymaster, post: 136072, member: 36626"] Further to what NEL is saying, there are a couple of factors, and it's not the WS2811 side that's the issue. The decoding of an E1.31/DDP frame, setting up there memory buffer to hold the data whilst streaming it out to the lights, and coordinating everything what that's going on. The CPU/hardware in a dedicated controller, as well as the associated firmware is more geared to pushing maximum pixels. There's are numerous hardware acceleration/offload mechanisms that can be used, with dedicated internal timers. The ESP device is a much more generic platform, of which most controllers use the existing modules like WT32-ETH01, nodemcu, etc, which are geared towards the hobbyist for any use. WLED is designed to run standalone with its own effects, with DDP/E1.31 being an afterthought/add-on. ESPixelStick is a little more focused, but still it's limited by the hardware to do what it does.

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
