Hello @presinnovation I'm facing the same problem with the same rev. How can I use your fix? I'm relatively new to RPi and Hyperion. Thanks for any help!!

Sort of a newbie myself but I think it depends on how Hyperion incorporates rpi_ws281x as a dependency. Theoretically you can update that dependency to point at my branch (presinnovation:add-Pi-3-Model-A-Plus-Rev-1_1) until this PR is accepted and Hyperion's developers also update the version of rpi_ws281x that it depends on. For my part, I was trying to get https://github.com/jackw01/led-control/tree/master/ledcontrol working and it was challenging because that install process builds/compiles a specific version of rpi_ws281x. Probably because I'm not very good at git, it was messy and convoluted to install from my branch of led-control that loaded my branch of rpi_ws281x before the build process.

Hopefully someone more skilled than myself can guide you on the details for Hyperion if you don't want to wait.

Would love to see this revision incorporated into a new release, had to do some deep digging to figure out why my 3A+ wasn't working
