P5 Panel Matrix Set up

[tomas041857]

Okay all you vixen software gurus I have bought (but it is not here yet) a P5 5 panel wide x 6 panel high (30 panels total) Matrix from wired watts. I am not sure now how to set up the preview and display. And after that how to upload it all to the FPP. I know that the P5 Matrix will have its own pi running FPP. So I guess also need help in setting up all my pi's too. I have a main pi for my sequences, a pi for music for the sequences and than the pi for the P5 Matrix. I an on my knees for as much help as possible.

Thanks for any help. Tom

Why do you have a Pi for your music? The same Pi that holds the sequences can hold the music files...and it can play your music too. Although, truth be told, many of us use the SoundBlaster Play 3 USB device as it puts out very good sound.

I am running a pi for the music because it will be inside the house transmitting on a fm transmitter. It was outside but it did not fair so well in the cold.

I keep my FPP master inside my house with my FM transmitter and my show router.  Works just fine.
