thanks hunter ! sometimes in the thick of frustration it is hard to break it down :) but all i did is re-flash all the code from the arduino IDE and run my processing sketch again, and everything worked great tonight :) I wonder what that lag problem actually is though... probably the same...

hey guys just hooking up the 6xteensy octo rig again and getting some lag on one of the teensys, the "last" (far right) one. I remember noticing this the first and only other time I have used this. I shot these videos exhibiting the behavior: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Su8RNAcsVw...

video from last night - everything worked perfectly! http://youtu.be/ApjKdfVHyBA http://youtu.be/7J3RspD-Nk0 http://youtu.be/d7RNkK7VkLM

ok so that glitching was from the resistors i used. i thought they were 220s but maybe not. i replaced a strip after it seemed the strip was the issue, but then 1,2, 7 and 8 were all not working properly. bypassing the resistors on 1 and 8 got all 4 back up and now i have 48 2m sections...

which boards are you referring to?

i build a second panel identical to the first and even though half of one of the strips is burned out right now, this whole panel is working a lot better than the first one - no glitching, all strips come on when I load new code, etc. to answer your question, i did swap the power supply and...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ey0ihu0b3o is a video of the strip glitching during the rainbow example - I am squeezing the data and ground extension cable coming from the teensy to get this glitching. It happens on its own during the plasma example but I couldn't really get it on video -...

I'll pull out the old scope later tonight - until then I am building the other 5 sections :) btw this is the power supply I am using: http://www.powergatellc.com/pdfs/GS40A.pdf

this is what happens sometimes when i reboot or upload new code: (this is running the plasma example) I guess they LEDs are not actually white, just quite bright.

hey Paul and others - love this stuff. building a 5760 LED installation right now with ws2811 60m strips in 2 m sections, total of 960 LEDs per teensy. using independant power supplies pwer strip, 5a @ 5v. I have all the grounds for the power supplies connected at a single point next to the...
