Another great, helpful video. Will be trying it this weekend. Many thanks. Dave

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

You're welcome Dave. If you have any questions, just let me know!

[@sanzoro]

Next level. 👍

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

Thanks fella, it's actually pretty cool what you can do. Also, it's a lot easier than people think.

[@matthalic1231]

Cool video! I would like to add, a nice shortcut to duplicate a layer you just press Ctrl + J.

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

Great tip, thanks for sharing!

[@kulinoku]

Can it be combined with the P5 RGB matrix module?

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

Sorry for the late response, I don't think the P5 panel can be controlled with WLED at this time, it requires coding Arduino coding.

I saw the blonde on the thumbnail and clicked. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

LOL

[@ADDUB_]

there seems to be a slight delay when the loop is restarted, maybe cause i have 12 frames but IDK.

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

Hmm, i'll have to look into that, I haven't noticed it.

[@ADDUB_]

Nvm I think my first and last frame were identical lol

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

That'll do it alright lol@@ADDUB_

[@ThomasFlorimonte]

Gif with a J. Why? Because the guy that invented said that’s the way you say it. Done. - JIF 👍🏼

[@mybritishcomputerguy]

Too funny
