Xlights Setup / Re: xLights64_2019_53.exe ransomware false positive?

« on: September 27, 2019, 01:21:06 PM »

I got same result, ignore it. For whatever reason ,windows doesn't like xlights. So i assume  Malawarebytes is using same excuse/reason for coming up bad. As for Gil's comment if your not sure, it is sarcasm/joking.
 cheers Boof63

I was not that worried but I wanted to make sure that the server was not hacked and file replaced with infected file.

Xlights Setup / xLights64_2019_53.exe ransomware false positive?

« on: September 26, 2019, 12:25:19 PM »

Today when I tried to download latest xligts version, Malawarebytes delete xLights64_2019_53.exe since it trigger it as ransomware. Does the file still have correct checksum from server? It can either be a false positive by Malawarebytes or the file is infected?

Falcon Pi Player / Re: Raspberry Pi 3 GPIO & WS281X

I'm pretty sure that is an error and should say 2 strings.  Along time ago I think it was 48 nodes per output, but that has been upped to at least 1000 per output.  Of course that is just the data and not power.

Ok, thanks Jim.

In the wiki it says that model 3 can support up to 48 strings, web gui still says GPIO 18 + 19, 24 strings per GPIO sounds much or how do I connect?

Xlights Setup / Re: Background schedule and show

« on: December 17, 2015, 01:10:07 PM »

Most of us including developers don't even use our scheduler we use an FPP.  So unfortunately it affects our ability to help other users that do use the scheduler.  I don't think we support background sequences so why not just schedule background from 7am to 6pm, show from 6pm to 8pm, and background from 8pm to 11:59pm?

Ok thanks, I had to search what FPP was but I will take a look on it. Installing it on my pi B+ right now.

Hi, I have a very discreet backlight scheduled between 7am - 11.59pm, I would then overide and run the show eg 6pm and 8pm, do I have to change the times for background schedule or could the schedue overide with the show?
Thanks

Enhancement Requests / UDP command as effect?

« on: December 14, 2015, 11:44:36 AM »

Hi, I have several lights that are controlled by homeautomation system, I would like to shut them off when a show starts. It could be triggered by a given url, listen on a file that write something to disk. I am open for all possible way for the sequencer to tell, hey I'm running. The best should have been if there is a effect that load an url or send a UDP command that you can add in the sequnce
