Haven't tried yet, but I think it should work. Even tho ESP32 is connected through usb to the pc, i suspect thats only for power, and that connection to WLED from Hyperion is done though WiFi. What i am not sure about yet is What would happen if hyperion server is connected through ehternet and not wifi, it shouldn't matter right?

Got it, so connecting the led stripe to the ESP32 hosting WLED, and that via usb to the pc hosting hyperion as mentioned should work then. Hyperion can detect and drive the esp32 by setting it to adalight.

Did i get it right?

Thanks once more

sorry, still pretty new to this and these concepts are really blurry...

I am basically going to install wled on an esp32 (this is the one i am going toget) connect the ws2812b accordingly, (data wire on d2 pin) plug the esp32 via usb, and power the led stripe, and hyperion should recognize the stipe right?

Thanks again.

How slow of a baudrate? monitor refresh rate is 144hz and and would like it to be maybe not that fast but still decent...

Would it improve if using ethernet? Not sure if its viable in my case since i got wired internet and only 1 ethernet socket.

So if i understood correctly, in order for hyperion to work with the ESP32 controlled ws2812b stripe , i need to install WLED software in the esp32?

Thanks for the help.

Hello everyone.

I'm relatively new to working with led stripes at all, but every tutorial i see online uses a raspberry as a controller for the led stripe. Is it possible to control a ws2812b using a more humble controller like a ESP32 or ESP8266, directly connected to a usb port?

I want to create ambient light for the same pc hosting hyperion, so I believe there must be a less overkill way to do it than using a rasperry pi. Is that the case?

Thanks.
