Title: Problem#2 GRB nodes not previewing correct colors
Post by: dwetzel on July 06, 2015, 11:30:21 AM

I have WS2812B strands that are GRB, When testing with FPP the colors match the nodes correctly, but when previewing the model the red and green are reversed. I set the model as a window frame with GRB nodes still no change. What am I missing? Probably something simple. I am using a solid color on for the effect.

Go the the test tab. Assuming your model starts at channel #1, turn on (click) on Ch#1.
Whatever color lights up on your lights is the actual Ch#1 color.
Repeat for #2.  Once the actual colors to channel mapping is determined, adjust the color order on your model config.

Most people would define the models as RGB and then swap the order inside your controller.  But it still should work.  Did you re-render everything after switching the node order?

I did check the colors in test tab they should be RGB, so now the model is correct. Then changed FP16 config file to GBR so it is correct in the actual lights. Thank you.
