r/xlights

I just finished building a new controllers to streamline my setup. This is much improved and stable version and it's was used in my last year show. As you all know in this hobby, we used multiple size of controllers all over our show and it's a mess to organized them. With these controllers in places, I can cut down the number of controllers box from 10 to 7 and reduced power consumption.

I already have some “dumb” pathway lights around the little sidewalk that goes from my driveway to front porch. I was wondering how I could incorporate (and if anybody else has done it) some pixel pathway lights that can be controlled nightly to just display soft white lights but then also easily incorporate with xlights during the holidays so I don’t have to swap anything out.

Beginner here, just trying to do a simple bars effect across some lights. The animation I wanted was it to be moving right slowly, ramp up to something fast, then ramp back down to something slow. I have one effect on the sequence of all lights, 20s long, with a value curve on the Cycles effect setting of the default Ramp up/down. From 0-10s it does what is expected, the speed of the cycling increases, but then at 10s it flips to a screeching halt and starts ramping up from slow to fast going right to left??

I don't understand this behavior at all, and without an ability to use decreasing values to slow down the cycle animation it seems impossible to achieve that?

Please help!

hi i have been trying to fix this for the last two days with no luck so here i am hopeing someone else can help

i have a lenovo ideapad slim 3x with a snapdragon cpu, no matter what setting i change when ever i go to the sequence tab on xlight (i have tryed many many version) it crashes, checked i have all the emulation things because its a arm cpu and nothing, no erros just gone when i click on that tab.

thanks in advance if you can help
