Short and sweet informative video 👏👏 I believe one the of the good video I can say for LED modules comparisons. 👍🏼 I would like to ask some more information if u can ? May I ask as per your experience which module (indoor and outdoor) you will be recommending for producing good result in retail environment where product promotion are displayed to attract customers. Further more if any video you suggest to give information about using small controller and is is connectivity which produce the testing results. Something which saw in some of comparisons video comments that after people install p1.5 screen but result is not as they expected even they produce good quality content but when it display content distorted when it displaying on screen ?
Great board. I have a question, you connected the pixelstring to port 1 and there are 8 ports. How do i know how many string i can connect to the first string or port 1? or how many pixels can port 1 manage? I know you can connect multiple string to 1 string using the xConnect pigtails. Is this all the same for other brands boards for example the Falcon controller? Thanks in advance... ( a beginner )
I have P6 16x32 panels. Tried to finish setup but LEDvision recognized my panels like 8x32. Did anyone have same problem? Any suggestions how to fix this?
My board had 13.39 installed and encountered the flickering issue. This version also does NOT work with FPP 7.5; you just don't get any output. Downgrading to 11.04 fixed these issues - so thank you!
I have just single panel. Can't get it past intelligent step where yuou should say how many lines there are. There are 8 lines , but on next test where you had single line it still has 8 lines, but around 50% dimmer. And after going on the map, it will blink 2 leds at the same time making it impossible to map anything.
So i got this working - it was wrong chip selected. But now I can map every other line and then remaining 4 lines blink at the same time and I can't complete it whatever I select. I could get it to work with another panel just fine, by following procedure.
Hello, I thinking buying this product, but I have a question and I would be glad if you can help me, do I need a specific structure to make it work, or I just can connect it to a HDMI or wifi via, installing a specific software y connecting all the panels together without any steel structure or something similar?
Nice. Just as you get to your speedy zoom at 27:20 I would have suggested that you give each individual strand a test tug as it is possible to clamp up the screw but actually miss the wire. I have had more than a few people with that issue over the years.
i want to build 150cm x 50cm vertical 2 row subtitle display screen. i sent an email but no answer yet. could you please check your emails and reply mine ?
The cards are now coming out with pwm firmware and these seem to have different rcvbp files to the "normal" firmware so downgrading to v11.0x doesnt work as the rcvbp file is invalid. Luckily a similar crossgrade to v8.6 odd does the trick.
I’m not sure where you purchased yours Gary, the most recent batch I got direct from Colorlight had normal firmware and having spoken with Wired Watts there’s did too..
Keep up the good work on these videos! Having singularly focused videos like this on certain parts is a lot better than one long drawn out video. these quick reminders have helped!
Can i use two net cards simultanously for the same screen? I have 8 colorlight cards but i want to connect half of them in one port an the other half to another. I dont have a sender
Incredible! I was just watching your other videos and this wonderful update appeared. I just connected an old TV for the first time following your instructions. I'm excited. I know it's very simple, but for those of us who are just starting out with light shows, each step is a challenge. Huge and infinite thanks. Without your help it would have been much more difficult. Greetings from Spain.
Awesome video. Previously I could save data that is going to be displayed on the LED panels to the receiver card. How can I do it with v8 Colorlight card?
Great Video, my first time using a PI 4, I watched a hand full of other videos & they didn't mention anything about the software needed, this one was the only one i found, GREAT JOB you made it very easy to follow & understand Thanks again "Lights On Seymour St"
Thank you so much for your helpful video and link to the files. I just setup a home made 20 panel P4 matrix and could not get the parameters to work correctly. Intelligent Settings would fail at the last step every time. It was getting frustrating. After downgrading the firmware it worked on the first time.
Coming here several years later, but how does one control the brightness of the panel using the FPP? If I use a BeagleBone there is an option to set the brightness, but if using a Colorlight card the option is not present?
@@gregorymacaree4676 Thanks. Does the plugin needs to be installed on the Pi connected to the Colorlight card, right? Not the FPP player as that would set the brightness for all outputs to a certain brightness. I also found out it should be configurable using the “Diming Curves” in xlights , but haven’t tried that route yet. Thanks so much for the info
