OK, I have one of my SSCs working with a 128 node string attached. I have Vixen3 "talking" to it, but I'm not quite seeing the behavior I would expect. This is probably because I'm expecting the wrong thing or my noobosity is otherwise getting in the way :-)
One of the Vixen3 videos (the one about the pixel firestick) says that you should enter RGB nodes as a single elements, not three (one each for red, green, blue). When I do this, and do a simple chase, it starts at the first node and chases, each node glowing white. But, it stops 1/3 of the way down the string. OK, I thought, maybe the video is wrong, so I select "RGB items" in the "Add Multiple" dialog in "Configure Elements and Groups". This produces more what I expected, 384 elements (3 x 128). I map each of those 384 elements to one channel of the controller. Now when I do a 'chase' it behaves like I expected, with each node flashing red, green, then blue and it continues to the end of the string.
So, was the video wrong? Or is there some other way to skin the cat? I tried some nutcracker effects with the string configured this way (384 elements, gathered into one "group", but didn't get anything reasonable. The whole string just lit up white. Do I need to create 128 "groups", each with the 3 RGB elements in them, then group those?
What it shows in the video works great in the preview, but I so far can't make it work with my "real, live" string.
