I have a WS2801 ledstrip (5v, 32 led per meter) which uses the RBG order. Unfortunately the library doesn't support this order.

Since getting the latest code for the WS2801, it seems that some updates to my strand are causing the [0] LED to show RED.

I have been forced to resort to:
strip.setPixelColor(0, COLOR_BLACK);
to get the strand working as expected.

I have an older copy of the WS2801 library on another machine that I will drop in and see if it works tomorrow, but wanted to raise the issue to see if someone knows more than I do.

Cheers,

I have a WS2801 led strip.
The problem is that it uses the RBG color order.
Can I change it from RGB to RBG in the library for it to work well?

Hi all,

I am trying to develop code for R&D using this library and I am using MEGA-2560. I have noticed that numPixels() function returns 0, if number of LEDs are more than 352? Is there any limitations on it at the moment or is it a bug? what is the max number of led this library can support?

Regards,

RL

Please add support for LED Modules with different color order (LED colors are connected in different order to WS2801).

The code has hardcoded color order RGB, but I'm using Modules with color order BRG (http://shop.led-studien.de/product_info.php/info/p102_RGB-Pixel-50x50mm-inkl--Wannen-Kabel.html).

Currently I swap colors in code, but that rather "ugly".
Of cause it's also possible to change the WS2801 lib, but that "ugly" too.

Thanks for your great lib!

F_CPU does not appear to be defined for intel edison boards.

Need to tweak the library slightly to use the right calloc function (appears to be mem_calloc on the ESP8266).
