Windows 10 Version 1803 17134.228 Prismatik unofficial 5.11.2.17 ws2812b led strip 300 leds total arduino uno running https://pastebin.com/sBCkDKZi w/ fastled

If I compile the arduino sketch and upload with NUM_LEDS configured at 255, prismatik works as expected, all 255 led's are controllable. If i change NUM_LEDS to anything above 255 the uno will boot, flash all the configured led's but prismatik fails to light any of the attached led's. This seems to happen right at 255, anything <=255 works correctly, anything above fails to light any of the leds. this happens in both screen grabber mode and mood light mode, both with updating the profile with the correct number of leds and without updating

So it figures as soon as I post this I found a sketch that is working correctly with prismatik, if anyone else has the issue the sketch available at : https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/blob/master/assets/firmware/arduino/adalight/adalight.ino

works great
