Hi all,
I know there are plenty of threads talking about ambilight and Teensy+Octo2811 but there's not a single thread which I can find that explains everything in detail at least for first comers in the world of Teensy.
The attached picture is a 422 LEDs. It failed to work with ESP8266, as expected, but all the LEDs and the connections are working properly. The total amount of LEDs is 422 (75x136).
Mostly my questions are regarding the wiring of these LEDs to the Octo2811.
From what I read I have to separate them to 4 different groups. Again, from what I read these groups should be the same amount of LEDs each. That's the first problem since I can't separate them equally but I can easily add/remove some LEDs so the count is correct. So that's ok.
Since the start of my LEDs is at the bottom left corner how should I connect the cables from the main LAN cable?
Should I cut my LED strip to create those 4 groups or I can keep it as is now and just solder the cables on it?
I appreciate your help in advance!
