Ok, thanks for the tip!  

Are you referring to the Cape Config: PiHat (DPIPixels - allows onboard audio) on Channel Outputs page?

I'll try that either way.  I was hoping for the default configuration to mirror my Pi 4 setup.

running the test patterns from FPP doesn't produce any output, again, there appears to be network traffic, but alas, no joy....

Quote from: yolomann on March 24, 2025, 12:21:39 PMYes, I had the same issue with PI 5
The Pi 5 has to have the DPI Pixel Virtual EEPROM installed

HDMI-A-1 did the trick. I upgraded FPP7.5 to 8.5.1 using the Pi-8.5.1_2025-02.ffpos file and then changed the Device: setting from fb0 to HDMI-A-1 and the videos are displaying properly on the (2) 43" Outdoor TV's that are part of my show. Thank you very much for your quick reply to my original posting.

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.

Quote from: OregonZoo on March 24, 2025, 08:39:32 AMI was just looking at the ESP32 controllers as an option. Particularly  the ESP32 quad+ from your pixel store. https://yourpixelstore.com/product/pixel-controller-quad-controller-12v/

Maybe I do one of those for each hole and have them all wirelessly networked to the falcon that sends out the show data each time the ESP32 detects a trigger?

Or were you thinking the ESP32 would be installed inside the hole with whatever trigger or vibration sensor, and it would just send the trigger data out to the pi running FPP and it would then play show data?

I would put an ESP32C3 (with an appropriate battery and sensor) in each hole.  Using the ESP32-NOW wireless protocol, data from inside each hole (ball sensed or not sensed) could be sent back to a main controller (and from there, you can do whatever you want).

THe ESP32C3 are pretty small, inexpensive, and can be programmed in the Arduino IDE.

Sorry for the delayed reply. I will have to re-upgrade the FPP to 8.5.1 and re-test. My guess is that it was still set to fb0 after the previous upgrades as that is what it is currently set to in FPP7.5. I will make sure to set to HDMI-A-1 this time and will let you know. Thanks.

Quote from: Bwinter on March 23, 2025, 06:10:10 PMDef seems like an Arduino project (and not FPP)
I would possibly still use FPP.
So that multiple effects can be mapped in xLights and uploaded to FPP.
Then effects can be played based on season... e.g. Halloween effects playlist or Spring playlist.
Triggers from MQTT hook, GPIO pins, or another IP hook to trigger an effect in FPP.

FPP can be an MQTT broker. That opens the opportunity to use off-the shelf IoT sensors.
E.g. Zigbee vibration sensor --> Zigbee hub --> MQTT (IP) trigger to FPP.


At the very least, an ESP32 would be a better choice than an Arduino. So they have WiFI ability and the option for SD card support (compressed FSEQ playback).
