Last post by k6ccc - December 04, 2025, 11:26:31 PMThe biggest part of the question was related to making sure ground was connected through, and if power was isolated between sections. Since you are sourcing all the power from the same power supply, have the power non-isolated is just fine (what I do too).

Last post by AdamNolen - December 04, 2025, 11:16:02 PMI'm not sure I understand the question. I have a 3 pin T connector at the power injection sites. I have pulled the data pin out of the T where the power injection screws in. I have not pulled the data pin out of the "straight through" portion of the T connector. The power is connected to power, and the ground is connected to ground.

Last post by plaberge - December 04, 2025, 11:13:29 PMIt looks like the voting site is down. It was fine earlier this week, but I noticed it had stopped working on Wednesday night. Two symptoms: 1) when I go to the voting URL, I see a blank white screen; 2) when I stop and restart the plug-in, it just spins on the Unique voting URL line. People really like the ability to pick the next song, so I hope you can look at this soon.

Last post by _tv_ - December 04, 2025, 05:11:46 PMI know, but I am applying some effects across large areas/groups that include these props (butterfly, etc) and all the other props look good with the multiple colors - but I just want to filter out the green/blue from these.

Falcon Player (FPP) / Use Output Processor as a colo...
Last post by _tv_ - December 04, 2025, 03:20:42 PMGood morning/afternoon/evening all,
I have been running LED holiday lights for almost a decade, but I am new to FPP this year. I am running it on a pi 3B.
I came across an interesting use case and I'm not sure if Output Processors can easily solve it.
I have translucent red candy cane props with RGB pixels in them (8 pixels per candy cane, 6 canes, = 144 channels in series).
Given that the plastic tube is red, the lights only look good if the Red channel is used.
What I was hoping to do is to use an FPP filter to set the GREEN and BLUE channels to 0 for these 48 pixels.
Here are my questions (in no particular order).
1) is there such a thing as a color channel filter I can just apply to these models?
2) is there a way to configure existing SET VALUE processors to repeat X times skipping Y channels?
Using this, I could start on channel 2 (Green) of the first model, SET VALUE to 0, have it repeat 8 times, skipping 2 channels.
Then I could have a second filter starting on channel 3 (Blue) SET VALUE to 0, also repeating 8 times and skipping 2 channels.
3) Assuming there is no good answer for 1 or 2, it looks like I can configure 24 output processors to each set a value of 0 for 2 channels and have each of them start them on the GREEN channel for each pixel.
Is there any easier way to achieve this result?
The sequences are being generated in xLights. I tried using the xLights "Single Color" for "String Type" but that only output 3 channels instead of 24 per candy cane.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

Last post by k6ccc - December 03, 2025, 10:33:00 PMQuote from: AAH on December 03, 2025, 04:14:20 PMI may be wrong but an 8M file seems very small for a 128x96 matrix for an hour long sequence.That's for sure! I just looked, my 13 second Merry Christmas clip is almost 30 MB.
