(just a note, the NeoPixelBus Library you are using already supports this) I just added a merge to convert from the old branch specific NeoPixelBus to the official library manager version here https://github.com/probonopd/ESP8266HueEmulator/pull/20

Thanks @Makuna for letting me know, it's been a while that I'd been working on this...

@Makuna does this mean that we need to use GPIO3 instead of GPIO2 in order to use I2S?

@probonopd check the wiki, esp8266 has several supported "methods", dma (i2s) has always had this restriction. There is also a uart method which is restricted to yet another pin. The bit bang method should not be used but is present for testing.
