I just joined the forum and want to introduce myself. I go by Zvacman. I live in Northern Michigan (snowy and cold). I am self employed, I own a vacuum store (hence the username). Last year was my 40th year putting up a substantial Christmas light display. Last year was also my first year doing an animated musical show with LOR. I had 80 channels and over 100,000 led's. The cheese has slid off my cracker, I have been planning next years show while doing this years show. I had more ideas than time, learning the software, sequencing, and building props was a full plate. This fall and early winter was unseasonably warm up here which made conditions ideal for decorating, I can't count on that for next year. I want to do a bunch of smart and dumb RGB's next year. Here is where the problem comes in, I am extremely computer challenged. Dongle, bridge, E1.31, Ethernet over blah, blah, blah. it all makes my head want to pop! Is there an RGB and Pixels for dummies book? There should be! I am going to warn you all right now, I am going to ask some really stupid questions. I apologize in advance. There it is in a nutshell, sorry for being so wordy.
