BUG - Entertainment causes flashing white #65

Closed stvnmbr1 closed 4 years ago

stvnmbr1 commented 4 years ago

Wemos D1 Mini WS2812 generic led strip

when using entertainment, at a random time the leds start pulsing white. controls keep working, turning the leds or room of turns off the leds but the pulsing stays.

unplugging and plugging back in seems to be to only way to resolve this

Hue app reflects the pulsing with on / off

Are you sure the power supply deliver enough power? Do the issue with flickering ocur only when all leds are on at maximum brighness?

stvnmbr1 commented 4 years ago

Yes because my ring, who has for sure enough power also starts flashing at the same time. Hue app shows them going on and off.

Seems to be random, caused by the hue sync app(or cpu load), will try to figure out when it happens exactly. Been running entertainment for 20mins at full brightness now and hasn't happened again so far

Redid the wiring, the flashing still appears but i think it just is trying to tell that a light is not connected anymore.

how many leds are you using and what is the number of virtual lights?

stvnmbr1 commented 4 years ago

60 leds, 4 lights, 2 transition leds Redid wiring, psu directly to strip and data in to wemos.

You can reproduce this by starting hue sync and unplug one of the lights of the entertainment room. In my case it's bad wifi connection in a corner that is causing this.
