RGB Matrix issues
Posted: Wed Jan 14, 2015 7:43 am
Have been playing with the rgb matrix function and have discovered a few issues.
I am running QLC+ 4.8.3 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
1. If there are more than 256 steps the option to fade between first and second colour does not work.
To reproduce.
Either create a matrix with more than 256 leds (43 x 6) and select "random fill single", or on any matrix select "text" and add some more characters to the message (" Q LIGHT CONTROLLER + test the length". Select an end colour and the fade will not happen.
.
2. "Fade out" seems to be recalculated each step, so if the fade out time is set to more than the step time it never fades to 0.
To reproduce.
Create a matrix and select stripes. As soon as you add any fade out time the preview gets upset, but if you open the "Fixture monitor" you can see the channels fading out. If you take the fade out time above the step time you can see the fade out rate changing each time there is a new step. meaning the channels never get to zero.
Thanks for all the work people put in to this superb software.
