Changelog

4.0-beta5

Numerous fixes have occurred since beta4, most notably web frontend stability (websockets removed) and FPP / xLights compatibility and synchronization. You will need to be on a current release of xLights in order for input/output uploading to work. MacOS libraries for the flash tool have been updated as well, but you will still have to execute the flash tool from the command line and jump through Apple's security hoops to allow mklittlefs to run. Numerous 3rd party ESP32 platforms have been added for those that like to roll their own controllers.

4.0-beta4

  • Moved FPP Remote to secondary input Issue #388
  • Added option to change E1.31 port number Issue #320
  • Display SD card stats on file mangement page Issue #399
  • Fixed issue not being able to use GPIO0 as a relay pin Issue #375
  • FPP multisync improvements
  • Increased ESP8266 pixel limit to 1200 pixels
  • Fixed issue with installing from 32bit Windows systems
  • Added ESP32-CAM build enviornment and binaries
  • Added RF calibration at boot and maximum TX limits to ESP8266 to help with stability
  • Switched LWIP2 build configuration to "High Bandwidth, No Features"
  • Switched to "yubox" fork of ESPAsnycWebserver
  • Added PWM support for relays
  • Added factory reset confirmation dialog

4.0-beta3

  • Fixed FSEQ playback for sparse files Issue #367
  • Fixed refresh rate display Issue #371
  • Added FSEQ validation for channel and sparse range counts
  • Stop output on FPP Connect file upload
  • Blank output when FPP Remote configuration is changed
  • Fixed files not showing for FPP Remote when tab is refreshed
  • More serial logging cleanup

4.0-beta2

  • Fixed issue saving when hostname defined in ESPSFlashTool Issue #360
  • Websocket stability fixes
  • FPP / fseq processing fixes
  • Fixed hostname issue for ESP8266
  • Fixed cfgver not valid issue
  • Added project links to Admin page
  • More serial logging cleanup
  • Switch back to X.Y versioning

4.0-beta1

  • Compiled against Arduino Core 3.0.2 for ESP8266 platform.
  • Compiled against Arduino Core 2.0.0 for ESP32 platform.
  • ESP-01 modules are no longer supported. Version 4.0 requires 4MB of flash and ESP-01 modules only have 1MB of flash. For the ESPixelStick V1 or V2, 3.2 is the latest version you can load.
  • Requires local upload to controller. OTA update from 3.x via EFU is not supported due to the new flash layout. Upgrades to future 4.x versions from 4.0.0 final however will be supported.
  • Complete refactor of the code to allow easier implementation of extensions.
  • Pixel and Serial code has been unified and all output modes are now selectable at runtime.
  • Added support for the ESP32 platform.
  • Added Artnet support.
  • Added Alexa support.
  • Added SD card support.
  • Added FPP remote support (requires board with SD card support).
  • Added Relay output support (8 channels, DIY hardware solution with GPIO mapping).
  • Added PCA9685 Servo output support (16 channels, requires PCA9685 module).
  • Added WS2801 support (ESP32 only)
  • Added APA-102 support (ESP32 only)

3.2

3.1

  • Compiled against 2.6.3 Arduino Core
  • ESPSFlashTool support for ESPixelStick v3.0 Hardware
  • Fixed DMX issues - Issue #101
  • Added brightness support.
