Hi, first of all, this is a great piece of kit, with the software and the M5Stick-C.

I have done a lot of work on expanding this with quite a few features for using this together with the "M5 NEO-Flash hat" [Link]

What it mainly adds is, it creates the matrix and displayed the selected tally number for ease of use, but also if you have multiple inputs selected it shows which one is on the program or in preview currently. It also has the ability to follow a program or preview, this might be helpful when running handheld (had one from our crew request that). They can also get totally removed if you only want to use it as a PGM and PVW tally light

The brightness of the LED panel is currently set to follow the brightness of the front LCD, for simplicity. together with this, there is 3 new setting in the UI/pages and on the web UI for setting and storing those modes on the fly.

I kinda gave up on the "plugin" way, and hardcoded it in. so this is not directly compatible, for people not using the NEO-Pixel Hat. But if others have looked at it and thought that would help them feel free to take a look at the fork with this implemented at this link [LINK]

@kevev hope you like it if you end up using it :), if I make other changes on the way, I'll keep the repo updated, it's mostly based on what I personally missed, as well as some ideas from the camera crew on the flor using them.

I'm so sorry for not replying. I've been really busy and I had to revoke my vMix HD license, since it's needed elsewhere at my church. So development has stagnated on my end for the moment. @McHauge Awesome to see a fork of you, I'm sure that people will like and use it. Thanks for sharing. I'll keep this issue open to attract some attention to it.
