[QUOTE="Rick164, post: 1169491, member: 17766"] Start point is configurable within Hyperion software so can start anywhere, would keep the direction clockwise (from front of tv) as the diagram is from the back of he tv :) Example: [IMG]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachments/xiino4m-jpg.167851/[/IMG] Top one is my start point and right one is my end point where it gets power again. There's this one which does something similar: [URL]http://www.hackerspaceshop.com/raspberrypi-ws2801.html[/URL] Works the same as for APA102 afaik, used it a while back for WS2801 and was just plug and play but still still had to solder the corners though. For soldering best to pre-tin both the jst cable and led connection points so they attach better and have increased surface, WS2812 is a bit easier as you only have 3 connection points but they are very close together already. Recently did APA102 144 leds p/m (606 leds total) and those were insanely tight to the leds, basically with the middle ones you had to take your time as those were right next to the led with a tiny copper surface.
