Hi
I'm really insterrested by testing your firmware but i'm a noob
I've falshed it, I've created a 15*16 neopixel led matrix (tested with arduino and work fine) for exemple with a wonderful software : Jinx! http://www.live-leds.de/
But can I have more explanation on running tpm2net ?
Like dat a are on GPIO 0 or 2, how can I set the module as AP or can it join my own network ?
I seeking for that kind of stuff since one year I create my matrix but without handy solution to manage it.
Thank in advance for you help.
Regards Stéphane

the setup is the same as outlined here https://github.com/cnlohr/ws2812esp8266 so hookup the di (data) of your lights to gpio0 and a 100p cap between gpio0 & ground. connect the ground of the esp & ground of you power supply for the lights together(do not connect +5v to the esp) ... the current firmware sets itself up as an AP with dhcp. there are no other options to connect and make changes ... yet! I have not tested this with jinx (curious to know if it works) ... either way ... setup your output to use tpm2net and point it to 192.168.4.1

Hi
Great work program works perfectly, I want to add support for http configurable by example esphttpd but it throws me this error do not know where the problem may be ?.

try adding #include "ets_sys.h" to the ws2812.c file??

I am also looking at how to add a web interface to this ... but I thought the esphttpd might be a little over kill and does not support ssl. I am leaning to json (like the IoT_Demo) with one exception ... it will server up a javascript client app. I would still be interested in how you make out adding the to the esphttpd project ... let us know how you make out!

- Mon Feb 09, 2015 11:50 pm #9367 Thank you for your answer but can you indicate precisely where I #include "ets_sys.h" add or remove ? So far as I learn to program esp chip. I still have one question the need to modify any library that I can control 512 LEDs I tried Jinx and Pixelcontroller but I managed to control a maximum of about 488 LEDs.
