No problem, thank you for watching the videos! Good luck on your journey of setting up your own display!

Thank you!

For the first part of your comment, thank you so much! I'm glad the videos help. For the second part, that's a little tough. Even though we're still 4 months from December, it may be hard to get a show running this year. Everyone everywhere has been having problems getting controllers with all the events in the world. I don't think you'll be able to get a falcon controller before Christmas. The one I've wanted has been out of stock since February and I've looked every other day on the website. What I'd recommend is buying a Kulp Board. You can find some versions of them on wired watts or on Kulplights.com, but some are out of stock till next year. These boards run off a beagle bone computer (kinda like a raspberry pi) and work with FPP. They're basically the same as a falcon controller except they can't run unless they have a beagle bone. You could also get a san devices controller but they don't have a lot of features. I've never bought either of these boards but I'd recommend Kulp boards because I've heard good things about them. As a last resort, you could also get the RPI-28D cap for a raspberry pi, but it only supports a small number of pixels (I think 2,000 or less with only 2 ports). Whatever you do if you really want to have a show for this year, I highly recommend buying a controller within the next few weeks. Things could go out of stock any second. Hope this helps and good luck with your show!

Much appreciated!

Thanks!

Sadly I haven't. Everything going on in the world right now is causing them to stay out of stock. I actually need an f48 too and if they don't come in stock by November, then there might not be a light show this year. The best advice I can say is every few days check pixel controllers website for details and buy the controller as soon as it's in stock!!!

These are smart RGB pixels that use a WS2811 chip. There are other types of pixels with other chips, but WS2811 is probably the most popular. They don't have a specific part number because they can be purchased from many different places online. Hope this helps!

@@How2Pixel Thanks a lot Sir

Thank you very much for the offer, but I have a lot on my plate between my light show, school, and a bunch of other things. Maybe check out magicallightshows.com/ or www.pixelprodisplays.com/ They have sequences on there for sale, however they can be really expensive. You can also find some free sequences on other sites like xlightsseq.com/ or on the xlights google drive drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B2ozCEidtWh3MUVzX0ZMc1pzY00?resourcekey=0-bD7_ydPiPmVUd8T9FHZO_w Hope this helps!

Ya I realized after I made the video that I forgot to put that in.

There are a couple of different ways to do it. First, you could just edit the audio track and put silence at the end of it. If you're using Falcon player you could also add a pause in the playlist. I think you can do the same in Xschedule too, I'm just not fully sure how.

The pixels? Yes they can be cut to whatever length you want! You'll just have to make sure to cover the cut end or put a pigtail on it. The extra pixels you could also use in another strand, you'll just need to tell the controller how many pixels are on each strand.
