What happened?

I have now installed LedFx and I can run the web interface successfully (since you told me how to clear trashed configs). Next problem that has arose:

Lights are eventually bugged only reacting with a huge delay.

For the the first couple of seconds it responds pretty smoothly but after some time the movement becomes really jagged.

It strikes me as LedFx has some connectivity issues because other synchronizations like Prismatik or Hyperion are stable over a long period. Effects send from WLED are passed through immediately anyhow.

In order to fix the issue I tried adding the Esp-device with UDP instead of e131, but by doing so lights are just turned off no matter what effect I choose. Also I experimented with different wifi spots, but no recover there.

I've got no error message that I can present to you guys so yeah.

Install Method

What happened?

When the music stop, or while a silent part of a song is played, or when LedFX starts and no music is played, the microphone gets more and more sensitive until the background noise is displayed. If I play loud music shortly or clap my hands the LEDs go off for a few seconds and than start playing again.

Install Method

Prebuilt Package from Ledfx.app

What version of LedFx?

0.10.7

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Firefox

Relevant log/trace output

There is only [INFO] in the logs. But how do I copy the log in the webbrowser? Or what is the path to the logs?

Anything else?

LedFX is running on Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi 3 v. 1.2 with an USB Microphone. I have tested a few microphones, doesn't change a thing. The software is up to date. I tried different "capture" levels in alsamixer for the microphone as well.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Want to add more color schemes to it! ❤️

Describe the solution you'd like Create some kind of color input for gradients. Lets ColorChord(.NET) decide the color and add LedFx beat and control features. 🔈 🕺 🎶 Also useful as working controll dashboard. 🎛️

Describe alternatives you've considered Programming my own dashboard and switch between ColorChord and LedFx respectively. 🎛️ (But I'm not a programmer... 😢 )

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm using cheap 'smart' bulbs in addition to my WLED controlled strips, and would like to include them as single pixel devices. They can already be controlled remotely, i'm currently doing so via MQTT from HA, but that's not possible using LedFx.

Describe the solution you'd like A 4th backend to allow me to add MQTT devices as single pixels.

Describe alternatives you've considered If there is a possibility using the existing backends (maybe as raw udp?), it would make sense for newbies like me to have a note in the docu added about this possibility (and how to do so).

Describe the bug I can't get this to run using the M1 Silicon instructions, I'm getting an error when running ledfx --open-ui. I think it has something to do with psutil and have attempted to uninstall and reinstall it but that didn't help. :/

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Follow these instructions
2. Seems to install properly from pip
3. Try to run ledfx --open-ui

Expected behavior Can open the UI with ledfx --open-ui

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Hi, thank you for your awesome project! ❤️

I am missing a feature where it would be more useful to use with fixtures where is only "one" LED.

For me it looks like every effect (except Strobe) is ment for to be on a strip. So it barely starts to show on the 0D fixture.

It would be nice if one could save sequences as presets like with a hardware light Mixer.

So you would set keyframes, the time between them and the Fade time and them you can Play them in a Loop.

This is an addition effect not a problem

A number of Leds moving from one end to the other. Based on a frequency/BPM best. Then stacking at one end, Bouncing back or skipping back to the starting end.

I am still moving through the effects to see if there is all ready anything similar.

This would ideally work across a few devices - In that setting like sticks of falling water.

What happened?

HI, After First install, I managed to see the LedFx's web UI, but wasn't able to find any of my Wled devices. Since, I've played with the sound reactive Wled Fork. Now re patched my nodeMCU and D1 mini devices back to lastest Wled (WLED beta release 0.13.0-b6). But now LedFx dosen't want to start anymore. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall it, reboot, check I've windows's stereo mix activated, but still can't make it run. Any idea ? Regards.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Most Linux Distributions don't come with apt. Some use yum/dnf, some use pacman, some use app, some use emerge, some use flatpak, some use snap and some don't have a package manager at all.

Thus the install script only works on a small subset of Linux distributions.

Describe the solution you'd like Add instructions on how to build/run this project from source. Including a list of required dependencies the user needs to install first.

Describe alternatives you've considered Provide an Appimage to support all Linux distros, withoht the user having to install dependencies manually.

Hey all,

For whatever reason if I try to launch the osx-64 (2.0.60) version on a mac mini running catalina, core will never launch. This is after running sudo xattr -cr on the app. Frontend will load but will continue to just display "LedFx-Core not ready"

I have a hunch it's a python build issue - what's the best way to confirm?

EDIT: Tried a few other Mac systems as well:

• same problem with Monterey x64.
• ARM version on an M1 works fine

Is there a way to automatically add segments as predefined in wled?

Wled/json/state returns segment ids and lengths. Can these be leveraged to autogenerate segments in ledfx from wled?

Thanks

Hi, I'd like to have the option of controlling the brightness of a WLED pattern from within ledfx, so I could affect the brightness of current wled pattern without taking over control of the strip.

Is this possible? Wled api has brightness control, but I haven't tried api yet myself.

Thanks

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Im using the strenght effect and it dont use all my leds:

Describe the solution you'd like

A strenght setting to control this behavior

Describe the bug Using a copy virtual device to multiple devices work fine for activation However, the effect type displayed on the slave devices is no longer streaming, it now shows the effect that is otherwise selected for the device ( not what is being streamed to it )

See where the copy virtual is streaming rainbow successfully to others, but effect name is as per device own local config prior to the copy being activated

Further changing a slaved device to another effect, breaks the copy device and ceases the effect across all other slaves, I suspect the effect at the root of the copy virtual has been deregistered globally

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Have a virtual copy device with mulitple slaved devices Have slave devices running other effects. Activate copy virtual See bad effect names Then change effect on one of slaves, see other devices fail

Expected behavior That streaming is displayed for slaved devices That changing one slave device does not break all other slaves

LedFx Host Information (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows
• Installation Method: Dev build
• LedFx Version: main head

Additional context I used to see streaming on copy virtual being used, may be a side effect of my other fixes
