Allpixelmini + pi + Falcon Player

Hi,

Has anyone had any luck using the Falcon Player in bridge mode - https://falconchristmas.com/forum/index.php?board=8.0 - on a Pi with the allpixelmini ?

im attempting xlights -> e131 over network -> pi (with fpp distro in bridge as e131 client) -> allpixelmini serial out -> led string

not getting much luck and cant find any reference to fpp+allpixel - but fpp will accept serial devices as output

anyone ?

Cheers

Fpp doesn’t support the AP as far as I know… It’s serial but with a custom protocol. fpp would need to support that. Lightshow Pi does.

When we made the AllPixel we had the option of going with some standard protocol or just rolling our own.
In the end, all the existing protocols were far too complicated for what we wanted to achieve, so we decided to go with a super simple one (though it’s based on Open Pixel Control).
It would probably be simple to add AP support to FPP but I’m not familiar enough with the code-base nor really have the time to dive in at the moment. Maybe soon.
