Hi All,
I recently started playing with an Rpi 3B+ to use the HDMI output to a large TV.
So far, so good, things work and trying out all different effects and images etc.
What bugs me at the moment is the tedious workflow of repeatedly using FPP connect to re-send my altered sequence, then switching to FPP to hit the play button to see my effect on the TV.
Is there a more direct link from xLights to the FPP that basically outputs whatever i change into a realtime output? (like when i use pixel strings with the "output to lights" always enabled).
I thought something like "update controller" would work (as per my pixel strings) but that doesn't seem to work with my Rpi setup.
I must be missing something not so obvious to me ;-)
with thanks in advance.
