I have a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ as my FPP player with a Falcon PiCap installed. I upgraded my Player Raspberry Pi to FPP 8.3.1 and now I'm getting the following errors:
Abnormal Conditions - May cause poor performance or other issues
• RPIWS281x: ws2811_init0 failed.
Error code: -3
• Could not initialize output type
RPIWS281X. Check logs for details.

Disabling the PiCap, stops the errors. Please help!

Anyone? I ended up going back to 7.4 to get me going for the season.

Yes, I had the same issue with PI 5 on fresh install (8.5.1).  I reported it on github.  I did not have this issue on my PI 4 and I think it's running 8.4.1.

The Pi 5 has to have the DPI Pixel Virtual EEPROM installed
If to err is human, I am more human than most people.
