Q Light Controller+

I have been using 4.10.5 GIT for awhile with no issues and have updated to 4.10.5a and noticed that my RBG matrices aren't working as expected. I use generic dimmer channels to quickly create effects.

I thought they weren't working at all but they are, just dim, at 76 rather than 255.

OSX 10.12.1

I was thinking that 4.10.5 GIT was very accurate way to describe the version.

It was QLC+_4.10.5-TEST-20160813

4.10.5 and 4.10.5a don't work as expected.

OK. A bit more testing..

This version is not working correctly either..

QLC+_4.10.5-TEST-20161129

Hi Mark,

I guess this is the change that affects your matrix: https://github.com/mcallegari/qlcplus/c ... f471219577
Before that change, dimmer in matrices were either on or off, and most of time on, regardless of the (imaginary?) color of the pixel.

After that change, dimmer value reflects intensity of the pixel (i.e. full white = 100%, full red = 30%, full green = 60%, full blue = 10%).
That means you get a BW mapping for the colors in the matrix.

I suppose that BW/grayscale image is better than full white square of the previous version.

In your case, does it help if you change matrix color to white?

Hi Jano,

Thanks for the heads up. i didn't realise there had been a change, obviously.

Did a quick test and yes, changing the colour to white does the job.

RGB matrices are a great way to make some quick chases and it is a handy feature.

Thanks for the help!

Cheers

Mark

Great!

You'll see the difference quite easily
