Showing wrong colors #95

Closed SjoerdHilhorst closed 4 years ago

SjoerdHilhorst commented 4 years ago

I've installed ledfx on linux, and i have Scott's audio reactive firmwire on the esp8266. When running Scott's audio reactive led strip visualization everything works fine. But LedFx seems to show all the wrong colors, for both audio reactive types and static types.

For example, when choosing single light. every pixel seems to be random. With random, some leds are always blue and some seem to flicker between two colors. Any thoughts?

I might think I know the solution. I haven't used a 3.3 to 5v logic shifter. could it be this? Weird that Scotts audio reactive led strip does work tho if that is indeed the case

Update: tried it with a level shifter, no difference

alright my bad, missed in the docs that i should enable include indexes. What does this do exactly?
