* removed dead code
* merge octopusStep and radialStep --> octoSpeed
* improve speed slider resolution by first multiplying, then dividing
Thanks @ewoudwijma
you still have to use a trick -> the "expand 1D" drop-down is hidden once you select a 2D-capable effect
* Create your segment with 2 colums or 2 rows (might also need "transpose"
* Select a 1D effect like chunchun
* set expand to "Pixels" or "Bar"
* now select the GEQ effect
--> Flat GEQ runs in the previously set expand mode.
This is a platform feature that asks forgiveness for PROGMEM misuse:
it adds a handler such that incorrectly used PROGMEM will work without
crashing, just really, *really* inefficiently.
Given that most of our real-world use cases for PROGMEM strings are
relatively infrequent text calls, we can err on the side of developer
convenience and address performance problems if and when they arise.
* avoid black spots
* better randomness on esp32
* new mode "FreqMap" (checkbox) - blob location follows major frequency
* new mode "GEQ scanner" (checkbox) - blob location based on GEQ band
--> looks cool with Pinwheel or Bar or Arc mapping
--> will be even better with the new Waterfall mapping mode
allows the compiler to inline access to ledsrgb[] , while still keeping the "no buffer" case in a separate function so program size does not blow up.
--> up to 10% faster
It seems that the FM6124 driver makes some "outdoor" panels work, that previously only showed random color flicker. FM6124 is largely compatible with panels that did work with the standard driver, too.
Art-Net Improvements
* AsyncUDP instead of WiFiUDP so it's much faster
* Support for professional Art-Net gear with many outputs
* Color-order remapping
* ESP32-P4 SIMD assembly optimization for brightness calc, a bit faster
* Full GUI support for all settings
* GUI guidance for setup
The OTA update class can deliver an error message.
