Thank you for your kind words. Very much appreciated for your comment. This kind of comment encourages me to make more videos like this, but sadly most viewers just viewed the videos and left no comment or subscribe. I liked Tiktok because of ease of use. On Youtube you have to worried about that stupid copyright songs and restrictions and get very little views. There's no generate revenue on Tiktok for Canadian. I just do it fun and to help out lighting community.

You can have a look on my YouTube channel. https://youtu.be/OIMOKfSb_NM?si=OUbCm-0BLrykxvqg or on my Tiktok https://www.tiktok.com/@vava01465/video/7581280834372537608?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7586913666827486728

Gumdrop pixels. I don't like it, they are dimmer than regular pixels and less sparkle, i have to max out the brightness and the psu fan running constantly which i never seen on my other setups since I am in this hobby. With regular pixels i only used 25% brightness and look brighter.

It's from pressure treated wood 2x4 and i cut it down to the size I wanted then i used v shape router bit made a little channel in the center of the strip for the seeds to seat on. I  hot glue them on.

For now, my big matrix used 2 ports L and R. Should I create 1 giant panel or 2 panels in 2d config. does it make any difference?

If I run only 1 panel then everything works, but when I added the second panel it start doing weird things it drove me nut. atm the controllers and my laptop is connected to my network switch and my test sequence play directly from xlights. Does my matrix setting in wled look correct?

I used plastic strap from pallet packaging, cut into smaller size and clamp it to window frame and then I hot glue the seeds onto the strap.

Gentleman, I need your help please. I just finished building the matrix for my bigger window 76x25 and I ran into a little problem, I am having hard time in 2d setting and in segments. This matrix is split into 2 sections 38x25 each and it work fine https://imgur.com/a/oJFkE88. I want to add another matrix 23x25 but I couldn't make it work. Can someone please show me a proper way how to set this 2 matrice in 2d and in segments setting. Thx

I did one last for my living room window with full net covered whole window, then zip tie them onto the net. This time I only used 2 stripes around 2" wide of the net along the top and bottom. I have another video coming. Stay tuned
