Animation files

Copy .lsa animation files into the root of a FAT32-formatted SD card.

On each boot:

  1. Every file named startup*.lsa plays once in case-insensitive alphabetical order.
  2. All other .lsa files play in case-insensitive alphabetical order.
  3. After the final normal animation, the normal playlist starts again.

Examples:

  • startup.lsa
  • startup_1.lsa
  • 01_intro.lsa
  • 02_logo.lsa

Startup files are not included in the repeating playlist. If there are no startup files, normal playback begins immediately. If there are no normal files, the panel returns to its idle error indication after the startup files finish.

Generate .lsa files from xLights FSEQ exports with scripts/fseq_to_lsa.py, or convert videos with scripts/mp4_to_lsa.py. The xLights project is in xlights_project/.

The active firmware reads animations only from the SD card. USB live preview and GIF playback are not supported.

To change the board size, update arduino_firmware/Main/Config.h and rebuild the firmware.
