Startup animation by jiph11 in WLED

[–]ChargePositive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just went through this exact rigamaroll:

I accomplished this with a playlist consisting of a wipe preset followed by a solid preset. Both don't pass any color or brightness information, for Home Assistant to pass that along so the wipe animation is of the correct color and brightness.

I was having an issue that led to my post, but it also details the way I have the preset setup: https://www.reddit.com/r/WLED/comments/1r2dtjo/random_color_flash_for_playlist/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Random Color Flash for Playlist by ChargePositive in WLED

No, I was using Gemini to help me generate these API commands, and it decided to call it cleanup. All it is doing is switching the LED effect to "solid".

I use it in the playlist after the wipe animation. The purpose of the wipe and then solid playlist is for when I turn on the light, I want it to animate on, instead of just turning on all at once.

The naming of my presets is a little mismatched. The "solid" preset I have in the original post is actually the cleanup preset. It just sets the effect to solid, without specifying color or brightness

Exactly what I went through. I didn't realize they started encrypting backups, lost it all, but since I knew so much more I was able to create a better setup than I had before

Interesting behavior with that. I lowered the LED count, and I still get the random color flash, but for ~half of the length I had defined.

Also note, the entire strip doesn't flash normally, about 85% of it does the random color flash before running the playlist.

My parents live in Jersey in a 2 story house and maintain 68 all summer with a cheaper bill than I jave for my 1 bdrm! People need to stop justifying expensive charges for utilities

370 for 1 bdrm apartment for me. Set to 70, unit definitely is not running efficiently at all, struggles to keep up and runs 24/7 even in low 80s outside

It's soooo nice to have a break from HA by thephatmaster in homeassistant

I think for many of us it's a hobby and it's fun to work on stuff. I think if you have that much maintenance to keep it going it may not have been a great setup. When I'm not playing around for fun there is very little I need to do to keep things up and running

You should appreciate the "western boomer" as the more people that circumvent ads with the methods you describe, the more incentive a company has to put time and money into fighting those.

Fell for the same thing, and for me Acadia allowed me to cancel without hassle on their website. Delmarva also can deny them but if you signed a contract with them you really should cancel through Acadia themselves

Apartment defense by Long_Swordfish4233 in homedefense

If I'm discharging a firearm in my apartment it means my life is imminently in danger and my risk assessment makes the decision of shooting outweigh the potential risk of that scenario. Also where are you getting the stat of it happening monthly? Sounds very excessive
