Finally got around to Pixel mapping my friend's Pixelblaze-controlled Christmas tree using @themariday 's video pixel mapping tool (https://github.com/TheMariday/marimapper), and it was fantastic! I could never have mapped the 600 LEDs on this tree without it.

    @geekmomprojects Eeeeeee! Thank you! I am so glad I could help! Always glad to hear feedback! Sounds like you had some pain with VS-Code venvs. Would love to know how I could improve marimapper to make that easier

    @geekmomprojects @themariday love the patterns too, did you open your repo for me next year per chance?

    @geekmomprojects that is so cool! Love the outcome, and seems like you had quite some fun along the way (plus the occassional hiccups, as usual with these kind of projects ๐Ÿ˜€).

    @geekmomprojects this is amazing! And many thanks to the link to the mapper by @themariday! I will be at that stage hopefully later today! Quick question: can it use the laptop camera rather than an external one like you are using? The mapper also supports FadeCandy, WLED and FCMega backends, not just the PixelBlaze. That is awesome! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ I may get some more use out of the old FadeCandy boards I have!

    @geekmomprojects @themariday Sooo... Can you use this to display arbitrary video? Rick Astley's evergreen hit perhaps? ๐Ÿค”

    @geekmomprojects @themariday Which web cam model did you use? Also roughly how far away did you film?

    @geekmomprojects @themariday loving this! Looks really awesome. Last year I tried 3D aware Christmas lights using https://github.com/mrozycki/rustmas project. I was partly successful, as the LED lights were quite close to each other and the 3D effect (burning fire in this case) was not that obvious ๐Ÿ™ˆ
