Questions about new AtmoLight setup (1 Viewer)

so, 80x45 should be fine, and the 96x54 should be the best.
if one guy can try to compil it with this change?

i can't make nothing, i make the white color on wall lol

I have just made a few tests with latest AtmoWin and AtmoLight versions, but without LEDs. So just the SEDU was connected.
For my old setup with 92 LEDs, low CPU was off with 100 ms between frames. Everything was fine: hardly dropped frames, render time at about 7 ms and CPU for AtmoWinA.exe at 10-12 %.

Then I setup AtmoWin with 244 LEDs. CPU for AtmoWin went up to 32-34 %, render time to about 35 ms. Higher frame rates than 25 fps where not possible which resulted in nearly half of the frames being dropped for live TV. BD rips with 24 Hz instead were fine.

After that I left all the settings the same and activated low CPU. Render time was at 5 ms, CPU for AtmoWin at 11-12 % and no dropped frames.
What does low CPU do? Only analyzes every second frame? Would low CPU with 100 ms then be the same as 200 ms without low CPU?

Then I have to decide if I want 244 LEDs with low CPU or either 120 (2812) or 130 (2801) without. Any suggestions? Meanwhile I also found out that 2812B (contrary to 2812 without B) often have ESD problems and should only be used with a protection circuit to avoid damaging the pixels.

Hey, if low CPU is off, then the ms don't matter. If low CPU is on then atmolight will only send data to atmowin every x ms. So low CPU and 100ms means a frame gets send to atmowin, then 100ms nothing gets send and then the next frame after that gets send again.

Correct, but they come (at least my strip) with a 300 Ohm resistance already connected on the start of the strip
All you need to do hook a 1000 µF capacitor on your PSU.
