If it zigzags on the strand do I need to tell it that?
@PixelProDisplays2 күн бұрын
The "zig zag" is built into the number of "strands per string". Don't use zig zag in the controller... just let the model build itself... then right-click on the prop and view the wiring diagram. You'll see a reverse view (from the pushed side) of how xLigths built the model. It should match how you've built your tree.

Can you program ac outputs for faces?
@PixelProDisplays2 күн бұрын
Yes. You would build a face definition using the Node Ranges. Assign the AC channels that associate the lip movements to match the phonemes, and eye open/close to allow for blinking. Then in the sequence, apply the faces effect to the prop. Point the effect to read the lyric track you have lyrics for. The face should read that track and it will output your assign AC data.

Thank you so much! Really appreciate this! If anyone else is struggling with Xlights not allowing the channels to be overlapped, but rather the channel numbers just constantly increasing, start again, but after every change click on save. Add the model, save. Change to starting channel, save. Change starting channel number, save 🙂

Thanks for this video. I was not aware about the fact that the order of the pixels selection was recorded. Also the shift clic to undo a selection is a good thing to know instead of double clic on it.

Do I need to Rinder again and save it. then upload the newly saved file to my controller? I have this same issue
@PixelProDisplays23 күн бұрын
Yes. Any change in your layout requires you to re-render all your sequences. Any change to network (ports you're plugging props into) requires you to re-render all your sequences. If you move a prop from the left side of your house, to the right side of your house, you must re-render. Same goes for rotation of a prop.

Great Video! And I got to where it will interrupt the show for a 30sec effect to play but how do you get it so it's not mirrored with overlapping channels? You alluded to virtual strings but how does that work?

Does the batch render also save the files so we can use fpp connect to upload all at once?
@PixelProDisplays26 күн бұрын
No it doesn't. It only opens and renders then creates the FSEQ. Any changes you want to make require you to open the sequence, change them, then save.

But, unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. As soon as I put the upload strings on the controllers, Xlights is giving them new channel numbers and it doesn't work anymore. My controller settings are the same as yours in the video. Is there a setting in Xlights I have to change to prevent it from giving new channel numbers?
@PixelProDisplays2 ай бұрын
Try unchecking "Full xLights Control" on the controller with the second half of the split prop?
@MarcoSpelde2 ай бұрын
@@PixelProDisplays That didn't make any difference. Switching off full Xlights control for either or both (Falcon F16v3, smart reciever, and Falcon PiCap v1) keeps Xlights giving new channel numbers. THe Picap handles the first two strings of 100 5v pixels, And the receiver on the F16v3 on the first rj45 port handles three strings of 100 5 v pixels. Everything works until I put the strings on the ports.
@PixelProDisplays2 ай бұрын
@@MarcoSpelde If the prop you're splitting is at the "end" of the first controller, it should continue at the "start" of the next controller. Just like the example in the video. If the first controller ends at channel say, 5000, you want the next controller to "start" at 5001. Now I placed it on the first outputs of the controller to help insure when I assigned it to the controller, that is would stay the same. Also, don't assign the other items to the second controller till after the shadow model has been assigned. That should stop the channel changes. If you still have problems, come into our Tuesday Open Mic Nite Zoom room 8:30pm Tuesday (tomorrow night). I'm sure we can get ya going.
