Playlist turns off wled

Hi,

first of all, i want to thank all who created this really awesome project.

I have a problem with the audio reactive version 14.0 b2 in combination with the playlist. I have created some presets for music and created a playlist for it with “repeat indefinitely” enabled. The playlist itself works fine but after some random time, it powers off the Leds. I tried to google for this issue but i didn’t find anything about this issue. I know this is a beta release but i want to mention it so that maybe someone could fix it.

Can someone tell me what i could do?

Thank you.

Hi. Same Problem also with 14.0 b3 and MoonMod Version. It doesn’t crash but it turns off itself. Any hint how i could investigate the problem?

I have seen restart before ( boot preset activated ) when using random playlist with “fx”:“r” , it was at random , i did not see that in a while ( or did not notice it as i keep the playlist as the boot preset ) .

The MCU turns off itself interesting if you do not see crash but one-thing that might give you a clue is if you enable debug ( in mm if you already using that it is there by default with netdebug )

I have no boot preset. The playlist i’m using is for music listening. It is a playlist for randomly switching between presets.

At least i don’t see a crash. It shows the correct uptime.

I’m not using MM version now. I’m using the audio reactive version. Where can i enable debuging in this version?

I would just advise you to use boot presets or playlist . Still I have kept two units ( MM and AC ) each with a playlist but only with 4 audio presets , i have closed the ui which might improve the performance . ( If the gui is open from PC wled might be a bit slower ) . This was 6 hours ago and i did not see crash or restart on both units . You might have more complicated playlist but to confirm first use the latest builds from here WLED installation (wled-install.github.io) ( this is nightly builds which would have a lot of fixes but possible other minor quarks ) .

For debug on AC you need to compile that or use one of the debug bins on the same site or here https://github.com/srg74/WLED-wemos-shield/tree/master/resources/Firmware .

Might be just for others to replicate you could list more info including the exact build number ,led count , number of presets …etc else it might be hard to test that from our side .

I have built a lamp with LED strip of 84 LEDs which is splited into 6 strips with 14 LEDs each. They are configured as a 2D Matrix.

The build i’m using: Installed version: WLED 0.14.0-b3 with audio reactive Usermod
(ESP32-D0WDQ5 build 2306210)

My configuration has 10 segments which are overlapping but they are not all at once enabled (power button). They are enabled only depending on which preset is active.

I have 30 presets. 4 Static, 8 effects, 11 audio and 7 for macros

On the ESP i’m using 4 touch pins for controlls. Microphone is an INMP441. Power supply is 5V 5A. 1000yF capacitor. SK6812 LEDs.

I have tried now the MM version with debuging active but it is crashing when using the presets with the effect “Puddlepeak”. I have saved the log. I have also noticed that the effect Puddlepeak is somehow problematic. I have set it to use bin 1. And sometimes it works and sometimes it is not reacting to sound. When moving the bin slider, then it starts working again.

When using AC debug version, the presets doesn’t work at all. I can’t bring the LED’s to light. Only the default preset 0, when rebooting, works. In the log i see there many entry’s which say “Slow strip”.

I have seen something like that when using overlay with a lot of segments that overlaps , so might be that is the cause , i think overlapping segment could misbehave if you have complex segments and specially if you have Use global led buffer enable ( might still be there without it )

Thank you for trying to help me and for your time.

Global Led buffer is not enabled. Should i share my config or presets for having a look or for testing?

You could log that to gh , if you used debug then that might also provide more info

Ok. Need to check how to do this. I only downloaded from Github in the past. Never posted anything.
