- several compile warning fixes
- multipin LED compile config
- release info (update page, JSON "info")
- WiFi scan fix if no networks found
- UI glitch when no presets are found fix
With multipin LED config it is now possible to assign GPIO to PWM RGB outputs.
Achieved by having length of DATA_PINS be divisble by lengt of PIXEL_COUNTS.
-changes save roughly 600bytes of flash
-made blurring faster by not writing the color and then reading it back but keeping it as a variable: on a C3, FX black hole goes from 55FPS to 71FPS
-added optional parameter to blur (smear) that can be used in combination with SEGMENT.clear(), blurring the frame without dimming the current frame (repeated calls without clearing will result in white). this is useful to blur without 'motion blurring' being added
-scale8 is inlined and repeated calls uses flash, plus it is slower than native 32bit, so I added 'color_scale' function which is native 32bit and scales 32bit colors (RGBW).
- transitions always enabled (use delay 0 to disable)
- optimisation in on/off fade
- fix for palette/color blend when blending style is not fade
- various tweaks and optimisations
Remove sync receive
Disallow 2D effects on non-2D segments
Optimisations
Sync clarification
AR palettes
Return of 2 audio simulations
Bugfix in sync #3344
- remove excessive segments
- ignore inactive segments if not syncing bounds
- send UDP/WS on segment change
- pop_back() when removing last segment
Add pairing support for ESP-NOW sync
Reduce string RAM footprint
UDP parse optimisation
Make WizMote work with sync.
ESP-NOW wireless sync POC.
- caveat: devices have to be on the same channel
- clashes with WizMote handling ATM
- breaking change
- remove leading 0 checkmark
- add reverse scroll checkmark
- add vertical scroll if text fits into segment (intensity ==0 or ==255)
- rotated characters
- leading 0 check added to short texts (i.e. #DDMM0)
Fixes#3322
turns out that fastLED 3.6.0 has an explicit uint32_t operator that returns RGBA, however 3.5.0 does not have this and the conversion returned only the "red" component".
it seems that SEGMENT.blur() is the main bottleneck for many 2D effects.
This change optimizes performance of the function:
* avoid to re-write unchanged pixels
* early exit when blur_amount == 0 (=nothing to do)
* use _fast_ types where possible
I've seen up to 20% speedup with this change.
* Avoid uint16 underflow in width() and height(): stop > start is possible, and means "inactive segment".
Without these checks, it was possible that width() and height() produce VERY large values due to underflow.
