Support more than 511 LEDs for Adalight #382

Open Gravator opened 4 years ago

Gravator commented 4 years ago

I have 551 LEDs and I can only get 511 LEDs to light as that is the limitation. Anyone have an edited version that allows over 511 LEDs with Adalight (serial)?? This is on a 145" projector screen.

Thanks!

All you need to do is change the value for MaximumNumberOfLeds in enums.hpp. If it works well we can consider changing it for everybody. Just beware that it's untested.

WLED UDP devices can go up to 1500 right now, they use the same LEDs, so the only difference is the serial, and people have bad baudrates with ANY amount of LEDs here 😄 so I think the limit can be bumped up without new kind of issues current gotcha is uchar led count with 256+ leds

I am also interested in a count of 600 using wled. Please make this available.

as mentioned above, WLED (over UDP) is not limited to 512

During the configuration wizard I cannot input a total over 511, but I can manually input the correct numbers for top sides bottom. Working but seems to skip 4 pixels around 486-489?

I can download the source code and change this but I am unsure on how to package and make an install out of it (.exe.) ? Any help?

Sorry not a developer.
