How to turn off every other led?

Hello,

i have read this as a solution to reduce the overall brightness somewhere on this forum, but it didn't say how to do this.

So, does anyone know how i disable every other led in my config file?

i'm running about 140 ws2801 leds on a rpi3 and it is way too bright when i watch at night. And reducing the brightness in the default settings isn't a solution.

Thanks!

Now that should work, that i didn't think of that...

will try it and i'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks!

No, it's even better if they all work with the effects and not while grabbing. So i've adjusted the scan values to 0 in the config and it's working like a charm.

The only thing is that now i have gaps in my grabbing, but i could adjust this in the config too. I'm just going to test this setup for a while because it's a lot of manual work to get this straightend out... And i didn't notice it (yet)...

Thanks for the info and for the great software,
Baat
