Hardware Setup with >4 Led Outputs does not work #45

Closed versamodule closed 1 year ago

versamodule commented 1 year ago

What happened?

I am using release 0.14.0-b5, on a ESP32-S3 Devkit. Everything works just fine with one exception. I have 5 Ws281x led strips. Each strip has 75 leds on it. Strips 1-4 work just fine, but the 5’th does not even light up. Yet, if I go into Config → LED Preferences and under Hardware setup I swap the GPIO pins of the 4 & 5’th strings, then the 5’th string works and the 4’th does not.

LED outputs are configured as such. Segment 0 = Start LED 0, Stop LED 375

Then Under Config → LED Preferences

1) Start 0, Length 75, GPIO 14

2) Start 75, Length 75, GPIO 13

3) Start 150, Length 75, GPIO 12

4) Start 225, Length 75, GPIO 11

5) Start 300, Length 75, GPIO 10

Any ideas what might be going on here?

S3 only supports 4 RMT outputs. It can support additional 3 virtual buses.
