Do You Need Help? Post it here / Do fireflies work with xlights?

« on: December 08, 2015, 04:31:08 AM »

Hello,

My show will not run smoothly in LOR, so I must find another way to run it.

I have 4 D-Light Firefli, will they run in xlights?

Thank you,
Eric

I guess I can run the servo board via DMX, I don't plan on using them again after this season so it's a non issue now (after my halloween show I have decided to just try and go full nutcracker)

Thank you
Eric

Hello!

I have a few LOR servo boards (which I am not married to after this season)

If I import a LOR sequence will there be any issue? (It's just considered a regular LOR controller, I guess)

Any thoughts?

You can do your layout with numbering (1 thru whatever) in Excel and Copy/Paste into the Custom Grid.

I just did a 12 x 19 grid in Excel, incrementing the numbers around the perimeter, then the next inner row.
I copied from A1 to L19, then pasted into a Custom model of 12x19. (there is a Paste button at the top)

Perfect!!

THAT IS AWESOME!!!

Thank you
Eric

Hello.

I have a big pixel clock that I am trying to get to work in nutcracker/xlights.

Now, I "think" I have the set up correct. So let's assume that I do.

When I go to the Nutcracker Tab and click on Model and select my clock, I get a much smaller screen. And the custom model editor display 15 pixels square. My model is 128 high and 48 wide. Is there a way to resize that screen so I can fit the whole pixel grid in the window?

Secondly, of course my clock does not have an "easy" layout. If I run 2 instances of nutcracker/xlights will they interfere with one another? They both have the same channel layout, but I need one open to modify my clock pixel arrangement and one open to "test" each pixel to make sure I am where I think I am in the grid. (because what I wrote down and the actual arrangement are two completely different things.......)

Thank you,
Eric
