[QUOTE="merryoncherry, post: 125798, member: 37249"] The xLights and manual suggestions are good ones, top of the list. I assume you've got in your head some idea of the scale/budget you want to work at, how much time you have, and some initial ideas you got looking at other people's display videos (on here, video sites, xlatw, etc.)? Are you sequencing it yourself or getting other people's sequences? How much of the DMX investment (not just the lights, but the sequences) are you hoping to keep? The biggest thing I wish I had appreciated more fully the first year was how long this stuff takes to set up (ordering, pushing pixels, power+ethernet+setup of controller & audio, mounting + wiring prop, adding prop to your xlights layout and groups, mapping sequences to your layout)... On average I bet I spent 20 seconds per pixel to do all that. [/QUOTE]

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