xLights/FPP connection
« on: October 07, 2019, 10:05:34 PM »
I have my coro pumpkin with 263 pixel nodes.  It is attached to a pi-hat on a Raspberry pi running FPP.  From the FPP test screen, I can cause the lights to turn on.  FPP output page attached.
Then I go to xlights and in the setup->discover, I run it and find the channels shown in the next clip.

I then go to the xLights test tool and try doing a chase on the lights, and nothing happens.

I am clearly missing some sort of intermediate mapping step.  Can anyone help?

Thank you!

I figured it out - in order for test mode from xlights to work, FPP had to be in bridge mode rather than standalone mode.  I thought I'd add this in case anyone else ever has this problem.
