Max 451 pixels

Open JonasVanGool opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Hello, I'm using the library for my project on an old raspberry pi (model b). It's a cpp project and the maximum for the pixels is 451( new NeoPixel(451), otherwise: RUN FAILED). Is there a way to increase this number?

This is still open ...

But has it been fixed yet ? If not, could it be another way to do so without adding a CPU between the Pi and the LEDs ?

Edit : I found this by looking a bit : https://hackaday.com/2020/10/12/running-way-more-led-strips-on-a-raspberry-pi-with-dma/ With an interesting redirection to https://iosoft.blog/2020/09/29/raspberry-pi-multi-channel-ws2812/

Maybe there's a way of improvement here, even if the latest commit was in 2015 ^^'
